Baltimore Book Direct

Helping short term rental owners book their guests directly

Are you currently a short term rental landlord or interested in becoming one? Are you hosting on platforms that charge excessive fees? Have you considered the benefits of building your business direct to consumer?

Keep more of your income

Nationally recognized online booking platforms charge guest and host fees between 17-19%. On average that can be $4, 500 per year per listing!

FOR EXAMPLE:
A guest books a 1 month stay through a nationally recognized platform:
Guest pays $2,280 for a one month stay
Host receives $1,900 for that same one month stay
Platform receives $4560 per year on your listing

Work directly with your clients

Engaging with your guests and residents on your terms helps to create lasting relationships all while saving them money on booking fees.
This creates repeat clients!

Have more control over your business

Manage your own business yourself without being at the mercy of short term rental platforms when it comes to dictating payment terms, review or reputation process.
