In an Owner's Own Words
Perch has managed my short-term rental in Seattle since 2021. They are professional, kind and detail oriented, and they always respond to my questions and requests very quickly. My rental gets very good reviews and guest feedback, and it earns solid income for me. I would recommend Perch to anyone who wants their home professionally managed as a short-term rental in the Seattle area.
What Makes Us Different
We Invest Where We Manage
We own homes in these markets. When we tell you what a place in Kihei or on Capitol Hill will earn, that number comes from carrying the same risk ourselves, through the same slow seasons.
We Protect Your Home
Preventive maintenance runs on a schedule rather than after something breaks. Every booking carries a damage waiver, and small problems get caught long before a guest ever notices them.
We Actually Answer
A dedicated owner team, a group chat with everyone who matters in it, weekly office hours, an emergency hotline and a direct line to leadership. Communication is our highest rated category with guests, and owners get the same standard.
"Set It and Forget It" Is a Myth. This Is the Work.
Full-Service Short-Term Rental Management
We Know What Guests Want
Real recommendations that move the needle, so you spend on what returns and skip what does not.
Short-Term and Mid-Term
We work both markets rather than one, so the calendar fills smarter and the shoulder months earn instead of sitting empty or getting discounted.
We Sweat the Details
Down to rolling the bins out. Careful guest screening, maintenance that never gets deferred, and a vetted network of trades behind it.
Consistent, Not Lucky
Every home is touched by several teams across every facet of the operation, with multiple checkpoints rather than one person holding it all. That is deliberate. Consistency is what actually produces results, and it is the hardest thing to fake.
The Same Cleaning Team, Every Time
One team is assigned to your home and stays with it. The same people, in and out, who know where everything lives and notice when something is off. Our cleaners average over three years with us, and those relationships are one of the things we are proudest of.
A Revenue Manager, Not an Algorithm
A real person watches your market daily: what is selling, what events are coming, what the comps just did. Pricing software reacts to history. A person reacts to a festival announcement, a weather shift or a competitor going dark, and moves your rate the same day. We optimize for dollars, not for a full calendar, and we meet guests where they actually are.

How We Work With You
Your Time Back, Without Cutting You Out
The day to day is ours. The decisions that matter are yours, and you never have to chase us for a number.
Clear monthly statements with line-by-line financial detail. Every dollar in and every dollar out.
A call to walk through your first statement so you know exactly how to read it.
An onboarding guide covering every detail, sent at the very start so there are no surprises later.
A dedicated owner team for questions, and an emergency hotline when something cannot wait.
Weekly office hours with the owner team that you can sign up for.
Direct access to your revenue manager to understand the exact pricing strategy on your home.
A group chat with everyone who matters in it. Send a quick message and get a real answer. No forms, no tickets, no waiting on a queue.
Pricing
Two Tiers, One Standard of Care
A percentage of what your home earns. No onboarding fee, no supply fee, no restocking fee. We only earn when your home earns. No vacancy fee, no minimum, no retainer. If the home sits empty, you owe us nothing.
The Full Year, Not the Good Quarter
We Would Rather Lose the Deal Than Oversell the Number
Most disappointment in this business is an expectations problem, not a performance problem. So we put the real numbers in front of you before you sign, including the months that do not look good.
Transparency, Before and After You Sign
A full twelve-month model for your specific home, built on what comparable homes actually book.
Seattle peaks in summer and Maui peaks in winter. We show you both halves of your calendar, not the good one.
Onboarding into a slow season? We tell you in dollars, upfront.
Line-by-line monthly statements after you sign, so the reporting matches the promise.
If we do not think your home will perform, we will say so and turn it down. Taking a home we expect to disappoint helps nobody.
Short-Term or a Long-Term Lease?
For a lot of owners this is the real question. We will model both against your actual home rather than guess.
Protection
Three Things Most Managers Leave to Chance
Protecting the asset is not the same as insuring it. These are the three gaps we close before they cost you.
Getting Started
From First Conversation to First Guest
Getting the home ready runs on your schedule. Once it is ready, we take one week to go live.
Step 1: A Fit Conversation
We talk through your home, your market and what you want from it, and work out honestly whether we are right for each other. You also get the onboarding guide here, at the very start, so you know exactly what our service and onboarding involve before committing to anything.
Step 2: We See the Home
In person wherever we can, by video call where we cannot. This is where we learn what actually makes your home special.
Step 3: Agreement
Signed, with every remaining question answered. On Perch Luxe, we take permits, licensing and renewals off your plate.
Step 4: Getting It Ready
A room-by-room setup list built from what performs in real Perch homes. You have the option to buy through HostGPO at member pricing, on a membership we already pay for on your behalf.
Step 5: Deep Clean
A deep clean to stage the home and get it genuinely guest‑ready. Photographing a home that is not fully ready costs you money for years.
Step 6: Photography
Professional photography, listings built per channel, and your pricing strategy set with your revenue manager before anyone books.
Step 7: Inspection and Go Live
A standards inspection to ensure everything works, smart lock and doorbell so every guest gets a unique code, consumables stocked by us, then live across all eleven channels at once.
Our Half
One Week
From the day you tell us the home is ready, steps 5 to 7 take one week. That part is ours and we hold ourselves to it.

Questions Owners Ask
The Things Worth Knowing Upfront
How much does management cost?
Perch Luxe is 20% of what your home earns. Perch Essentials is 10%, by invitation, for owners who handle their own repairs. No onboarding fee, no supply fee, no restocking fee.
How long does onboarding take?
One week from the moment your home is ready to the moment it is live. Getting the home ready is on your schedule, and your onboarding specialist helps you move through it.
Can you set up my home for me?
Not at the moment, and that is deliberate. We would rather every home look like itself than have a portfolio that all looks the same, and a lot of our owners genuinely enjoy setting up their own place. We give you a specific list of items that have proven to perform and last, plus HostGPO member pricing, and we can refer you to people who do full setup if you would rather hand it over.
What if a guest damages my home?
Every booking carries a damage waiver covering accidental and intentional damage up to $1,500, exclusions apply. It sits on top of platform protection, and we process the claim rather than sending you to do it. We recovered over $80,000 for owners in the last twelve months.
Who pays for supplies?
We stock and pay for consumables: coffee, tea, cooking oil, salt & pepper, toiletries, paper goods, dish and laundry supplies. Furnishings, linens and towels are yours to buy, with a specific list to guide you along the way.
How much will my home earn?
We model it across a full twelve months before you commit. Both Seattle & Maui markets are seasonal and run opposite calendars, so one strong month tells you very little. If we do not think the home will perform, we will tell you.
Which channels will my home be on?
Eleven, including Perch Direct, Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Marriott Homes & Villas, Google, Hopper, Whimstay, Furnished Finder, Blueground and Insurance Housing Partners. We are constantly evaluating channels for fit.
Do you take on every home?
No. We only manage in markets where we have invested ourselves, and only take homes we are confident we can deliver on.
