    I've wondered for a while why the captions cover the photos when using the Owner Rez website? Can we please request the captions go under the photos

     

    This is a verbatim message from a friend: "I just looked at bucks southern condo in Nashville. Very cute! The music theme fits Nashville perfectly. Only potential issue is the captions on some of the pics such as the living room pic made it...

    We have 2 properties in two different parts of our state...two different seasons , two different target market groups both using Pricelabs since for the past 3 yearsStarting November 2023, both properties have declined in lock step. All channels are down.  Has anyone else experienced this decline when comparing 2023. Not sure if it's a macro economic issue, an SEO issue, competition or even some...

    Y'all, I am at my wits end here... 

    I was preparing an owner statement today and noticed one of the bookings was missing a cleaning fee expense.  I went to the booking detail and found that the cleaning fee did not show up there as an expense.  All the rest of the bookings for the month showed the cleaning fee, which is automatically generated on a per booking basis.

    I'm trying to backtrace...

    As a ownerrez client who already has a ownerrez hosted website, I'd like the Google Vacation Rental channel to automatically use branding from my hosted website when I set up the GVR channel.

    Must have: use some field, such as "Company Name" from branding  that is already set up in OR.

    Nice to have: allow me to change the branding to anything I want, specific to the GVR channel.

    We have a different check-out time for Sundays (2pm) since we don't allow Sunday check-ins and don't need to clean that day. I need to be able to customize the check-out time for all Sundays so that, when our guests book a weekend, the confirmation email shows them they have until 2pm on Sunday.

    I’ve been manually changing the Sunday check-out times in a guests booking, but only AFTER they have...

    Since I'm using OwnerRez, I'm using their "trust accounting model" for my property management clients.

    Unless I'm missing a trick, while the accounting makes sense, the banking doesn't. It would seem, in order to keep everything straight, that I will need to open a new "trust" account for each client. Also, since I'm listing on Vrbo and have a private site as well, that I'll also need to open a...

    I have imported VRBO bookings (and AirBNB) that won't fire the automated triggers b/c the system says there's no message thread. Now that my API is integrated, I tried to "create" a thread by sending a VRBO msg via ORez, that didn't work.

    Will this be fixed with NEW reservations created via VRBO and I just have to manually send the imported bookings?

    Hi,

    When generating a statement, the system essentially backfills any data since the last statement date. So theoretically you could do weekly statements per property.

    To do this when generating an owner statement, Change the statement date manually to the day of the week you do your statements on (thursdays). There's no means automatically to do this, however it should generally work.

    Hi Ata,

    It looks like the guest paid column is currently set to zero percent, this is important as the system calculates how much can be remitted via the following:

    Lesser of Owner Amount x Guest Paid % or In Period %

    in this case since views the guest paid amount as zero, it's resulting in a total can remit value of zero. Taking a look at that booking on the transactions tab, are the pa...

    OwnerRez is only able to push rates to Airbnb and Vrbo via an API connection, which I see you have not yet established.  That's the solution for this problem:

    Hey Julie! Check the cleaning fee Surcharge for that property and scroll down to the Expense section. That's where you can designate how much of it should go to you as the PM. This is customizable on each individual Surcharge that is applied to bookings

    Settings > Surcharges > This particular cleaning fee > Scroll down to Expense section

    Here is a very general example:

    As to when you should send out the request, that's up to you - you may get different or better results at different timings, depending on your guests.

    The list of room types isn't ours, per se - it's based on the lists of room types that are supported by the major listing channels like Airbnb and Vrbo, and specifically, by their API software that allows us to connect with them.

    Hi Antony,

    OwnerRez does not actually have Trust Accounting built in at this time.   However, using 3rd party tools like Quickbooks Online () or  Clearing () , should help you maintain the ledgers necessary to facilitate a trust accounting model.

    Thank you, Stephanie, that's an extraordinarily kind offer.  I'd be more than grateful to take you up on it. I don't know how to communicate privately on this platform, and I hesitate to leave my information on a public site. I"m really interested in seeing a good chart of accounts, and understand how you book everything. 

    Thanks also for pointing me to the PM reports, which I was ignorantly un...

    FYI I just got the autoresponse.  I sent the query in at 7:40am yesterday, and got the autoresponse at 13:10pm today.  That's a very long time for an autoresponse! More details if you're interested.

    I just came over from WebRezPro and used it for 15 years. I would not recommend going over to WRP, but I have to say, it sure was nice having someone pick up a phone (10 - 8 pm) every single time I had an issue. OR is 100x's better than WRP, but having a knowledgeable tech was fantastic. Just saying. (-;

    This is not price increase per person, it’s the opposite. Booking.com has an optional price chart that lists reduction based on occupancy. We have six bedroom and have had 5 people up to 12, the table in booking.com lists total occupancy and allows for a reduction ifor a smaller party  For example an automated reduction for fewer guests. An example below  After API I could not find booking.com char...

    Yes, I understand the distinction - I'm just saying that mathematically, the same end result can already be achieved.

    I wasn't personally aware that Booking.com supports doing it this way, but I do know that none of the other major listing channels do.  So I doubt adding this unique corner-case would be a high priority.  Still, let's see how the voting goes.
