Dear landlords,
My name is Cami Narino, and I am the Chief Operating Officer here at Furnished Finder. As we celebrate our 10th Birthday (opens in new tab), I want to highlight how the monthly rental industry and our company have evolved over the last decade. To that end, we have learned a lot over the years, so I will also share some of the most effective ways for you to set yourself up for success in your monthly rental business.
Confidence & Growth in the Last 10 Years
The monthly rental space has come a long way, and Furnished Finder has been right there every step of the way. Demand for MTRs has skyrocketed, and travelers are more eager than ever to find reliable, high-quality homes like yours. To keep pace with this growing demand, we invested in making our platform even better. From expanding our tools to improving the functionality that supports your businesses, we focused on helping you stay ahead of the curve, and we will continue that focus into the future.
Best Practices for Your MTR Business
As the COO, I see firsthand the habits of our most successful landlords. Based on that, here are my top five recommendations for you to set yourself up for success:
KeyCheck Tenant Screening: (opens in new tab) Screen every tenant prior to booking. Simply click “Screen this tenant” next to your tenant lead in your dashboard for the comprehensive and tenant-paid screening.
KeyCheck Online Lease Creation: (opens in new tab) Set clear expectations with a rock-solid lease through our easy-to-use digital lease creation tools.
Top-Notch Listing Descriptions and Photos: (opens in new tab) Put your best foot forward with a great listing. Make sure your photos are fantastic, and your calendar is accurate.
Timely Response Rates: We serve you with quality leads, and it’s up to YOU to make them tenants. Reply to messages, answer your phone (it may be a lead from us!) and respond to tenant leads.
We Are Just Getting Started
We are constantly fixing, improving, and enhancing the platform to give you what you need most. Our goal? To keep your business growing and thriving. Your feedback is crucial, and we will continue to adapt our platform to align with your needs. Over the next year, you will experience a platform that more effectively equips you with the tools to grow your business – we are excited to work together to get there.
Important Reminder
Your tenure as a landlord on Furnished Finder (opens in new tab) is a huge factor in building trust with travelers – it is displayed prominently on your property details page. If your account expires, that hard-earned tenure restarts, and that is something we do not want you to lose. Make sure auto-renewal is switched on so you do not miss any leads, booking requests, or potential travelers—and you keep your status strong. Check your auto-renewal status in your landlord dashboard under the account tab.
We are here to support you along the way, so if you have any questions or need a hand with anything, please do not hesitate to reach out to our dedicated customer service team at (855) 616-8588. Here’s to many more years of growth and success together!
Best regards, Cami Narino - COO, Furnished Finder
