Aloha & Good Morning!
Today Maui will be sunny with highs in the mid 80’s!
This year has been so positive and full of change. Not only have I expanded my services but my business as a whole has grown. Several months ago I expanded my real estate services to include vacation rental management. I am really lucky that I have a lot of support from Maui International Real Estate as well as my friends and family. I have wanted to include this professional service as a continuation of my dedication to my clients.
Currently I am professionally managing four units in Kihei and I have room for a couple more openings. If you or someone you know needs help with their Maui vacation rental please contact me and I'll be happy to help.
I offer a wide-variety of services based on the needs of the rental.
- Create a website to market the rental property
- Communicate with potential guests for bookings and general inquiries
- Collect payments from guests and pay owners monthly off the bookings
- Handle any maintenance issues and arrange cleaning of the property between guests
- Complete overhaul of an existing or new vacation rental to include new furnishings, decorations and any other specific needs.
- Some clients are hands-on with this need and others will give a budget for me to work with
- Arrange for a local tax specialist to set up a Hawaii state license.
- Taxes are due regularly throughout the year to the state and the local
tax specialist can file and pay the taxes so you don't have to worry
about it.
My team and I are able to offer the best of both worlds – Real Estate Services and Vacation Property Management. I can assure you that with this small number of rentals that I am managing that I have plenty of time devoted to all my clients.
Below is a preview and links to the properties I am currently managing. I am providing a link to the VRBO.com site for each that I am managing. Please contact me today for more info or to help you with your vacation rental property.
