We manage vs you manage

Clear responsibilities, fewer surprises

This split prevents scope misrepresentation. You always know what we coordinate, what you handle, and how guest messaging flows.

Guest messaging & documentation boundaries

Clear, consistent communication you can track

When guests ask questions, we handle the conversation and keep you informed with a documented trail. You get clarity without chasing messages.

What we coordinate

  • Guest replies with approved policies and accurate house details.
  • Issue triage (service requests, access questions, amenity confusion) with clear next steps.
  • Documentation so you can review the outcome without reopening the thread.

What you own

  • Final approvals for owner-dependent decisions (scope, costs, and scheduling constraints).
  • Direct access when a physical action is required and you are the point of contact.
  • Policy definitions you want enforced consistently for your property.

Documentation boundaries, explained

We record the guest message, the response we sent, and the resolution status. We do not publish private owner information in guest-facing replies. If something requires your input, we flag it clearly and wait for your decision.
