Core reads each listing’s calendar link. Pro connects Airbnb directly through Channex, Airbnb’s official channel partner, with Booking.com on the same connection (and Vrbo for listings managed in Expedia Partner Central; owner-dashboard Vrbo listings keep using the calendar link), and adds a booking site of your own. Long-term leases live in Rentalhand itself.Every plan includes landlord tools. Leases, tenants and rent collection for your long-term rentals live in a second workspace behind the same login, free and run by you. Only renting to tenants? It is free with no plan.The landlord tour
For short-term rentals there are four ways to use Rentalhand: run it yourself on Core, free; let Pro run the routine for $19 a month per short-term rental; or hand it to our team with Co-hosting (10% of booking revenue, anywhere in the US) or Full Management (20%, in Los Angeles and Orange County). Compare the four side by side.
HOW IT WORKS
Three steps to set up. Pro makes it run itself.
1
Add your places
On Pro, press Connect Airbnb and your properties are created from your listings. On Core, paste the calendar links. Renting to tenants? Add units and a lease instead.
2
Set it up once
Add your cleaner, pick your message templates, set rent due days and late fees, and choose how turnovers are handled.
3
Run it with a clear head
On Core you work the lists. On Pro the guest messages go out and cleaners are assigned and reminded by themselves. Either way, your financials fill in as you go.
WHAT YOU GET
Core does the busywork free. Pro handles the follow-up.
Both import your bookings and create a turnover for every checkout. Here is exactly what changes when you turn on Pro, for $19 a month per short-term rental. Nothing is locked behind a sales call.
| Step | Core · free | Pro · $19 a month per short-term rental |
|---|---|---|
| Bookings from Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com | Imported from the calendar link every few minutes | Direct connection: in within seconds, with the guest’s contact; your calendar and prices flow back |
| Setting up a property | You type the details | Created from your Airbnb listing when you connect |
| Bookings from your own website | Added by hand | Your own booking site, calendar shared with Airbnb, paid by card |
| A turnover for every checkout | Created automatically | Created automatically |
| Cleaner for each turnover | You pick, with a suggestion | Assigned automatically |
| Cleaner reminders, backup cleaner, escalation | You follow up | Automatic |
| Guest messages before, during and after a stay | You send them from saved templates | Sent on schedule inside the Airbnb conversation for Airbnb bookings, by email or text for the rest |
| Guest questions on the check-in page | You answer | The AI concierge answers from your house guide; anything unsure waits for you |
| Door codes | One code you set, shown at check-in time | A new code for each stay and each cleaner (smart lock, $7 a month) |
| Early check-in, late checkout, mid-stay clean | Guests ask; you reply | Guests request them on the check-in page at your prices |
In every account
Your Airbnb and Vrbo inbox, in Rentalhand
On Pro with Airbnb connected directly, Airbnb conversations arrive in your inbox and your replies go back to the guest from here; the concierge can draft them. On Core, connect Outlook or forward your notification emails once, and messages land in one place: Reply copies your answer and opens the right thread for you to paste and send.
A private check-in page for every stay
One link per booking: house rules agreed, Wi-Fi and parking from your guidebook, the door code when it is time, and guest questions straight to your inbox.
Your cleaner gets a free workspace
Invite your cleaner and they get their own Rentalhand: every job with the checklist and codes, before-and-after photos, invoices and quotes. Anything a guest leaves behind is logged with a photo, and the guest asks for it back from their check-in page. Free for one cleaner, with nothing to install; a cleaning crew with a team is $29 a month.
Maintenance, before it is a review
Guests report a dripping faucet or a dead remote from their check-in page, photo attached, and it lands in your maintenance list. Assign a vendor, track the cost and keep the history on the property.
Numbers ready for tax time
Import Airbnb and Vrbo payouts, see profit by month and property, export a tax summary in one click.
Pro adds
Airbnb connected directly, in real time
Press Connect Airbnb, sign in on Airbnb’s own page, and your properties are created from your listings with nothing to type. Bookings, changes and cancellations arrive within seconds with the guest’s name and contact, and your calendar, nightly rate and minimum stay flow back to the listing. Booking.com connects to the same property with its hotel id, and Vrbo too for listings managed in Expedia Partner Central.
Your own direct booking site
A clean booking site at your own address with photos, reviews, a live calendar shared with Airbnb and card payment straight to you. Guests who found you once can book you again without the platform fee.
AI guest concierge
Guests ask about Wi-Fi, parking or checkout on their check-in page and usually get the answer from your house guide within a minute. Anything uncertain, about money or a complaint waits for you as a draft.
Door codes that change themselves
Connect a smart lock and every stay gets its own code from check-in to checkout, and each cleaner gets one for their window. Add-on, $7 per lock per month.
ID checks before the door code
Guests on Vrbo, Booking.com and direct bookings verify a government ID before the code appears; Airbnb verifies its own guests, so its stays are skipped. Add-on, $2.50 per guest checked, only when you turn it on.
Climate and noise, handled
Eco mode between stays, comfort before check-in, and a quiet-hours noise alert before the neighbors write to you.
WHY RENTALHAND
Built by an owner who runs rentals, not by a software company.
Rentalhand started as the tool we use on our own short-term rentals and leases in Los Angeles and Orange County. Every feature exists because a real checkout, guest or tenant needed it, and our own cleaning and co-hosting crew works out of the same app your cleaner would.
What we promise
- Core stays free, with no property limit and no card. The workspace is how owners find us; the services pay the bills.
- No percentage of your Airbnb, Vrbo or Booking.com bookings on Core or Pro: Pro is a flat $19 a month per short-term rental, bookings taken on your own direct booking site carry a 1% Rentalhand fee plus card processing, and leases are always free. Beyond that 1%, only our hands-on Co-hosting and Full Management services are priced as a share of bookings.
- Your listings and accounts stay yours. On Core, Pro and Co-hosting the payouts go straight to you; Full Management pays you with a monthly statement. The software never signs in to Airbnb or Vrbo for you; on Co-hosting and Full Management our team works in your listing with access you give it, through the platform's co-host feature where it has one, and you can take that access back at any time.
- Leave whenever you like: export your financials and rent roll, and your data goes with you.
What it costs
Simple prices, published here in full. Core is free with no property limit. Pro is $19 a month per short-term rental: one Airbnb with a smart lock is $26 a month, everything included.
- Corefree, no card, no property limit
- Pro$19 a month per short-term rental
- Smart locks$7 a month per lock, only if you use them
- Your booking siteincluded with Pro; 1% of each direct booking plus card processing
CLEANING
Every checkout becomes a clean. You choose who does it.
Each short-term property picks a mode once. New bookings, including ones that arrive by calendar sync, create the turnover without you touching anything; on Pro it is assigned, chased and backed up as well.
Your cleaner
Add them by name and phone. No account needed; they can sign in later to see all their jobs. On Core you assign each turnover; on Pro every checkout goes to them by itself.
- A private link with the window, checklist, access notes and codes, by text
- They confirm with one tap, or decline and you know right away
- Before and after photos land on the task
- Pro: assigned automatically, reminded, a deadline, and a backup if they go quiet
Rentalhand cleaning
Prefer not to manage a cleaner? Switch any property to Rentalhand cleaners, or pick our crew as your backup. Every checkout becomes a scheduled clean with photos at a standing rate you accept once.
- Vetted local crew, same-day turnovers covered
- Before and after photos on every clean
- Fresh linens and towels on every clean when your rate includes them
- One invoice, posted straight to your financials
Quoted for your homeRentalhand cleaning is done by our own crew in Los Angeles and Orange County, with Palm Springs by arrangement; elsewhere it is done by approved independent cleaners near you, and some areas have none yet.

QUESTIONS
The things owners ask first.
Is Core really free?
Yes. Core has no property limit, no trial clock and no card on file, and long-term leases are free on every account, rent collection included. Pro is for short-term owners who want the routine to run by itself, and our cleaning, Co-hosting and Full Management services are quoted when you want them.
Do I need to leave Airbnb or Vrbo?
No. Keep your listings where they are and keep getting paid by them. On Core, Rentalhand reads the calendar link each listing publishes. On Pro you connect Airbnb directly: you approve Rentalhand on Airbnb's own page (we never see your password), bookings arrive within seconds, and your calendar, nightly rate and minimum stay are kept in step on the listing. Vrbo and Booking.com join the same connection. Disconnect at any time and Airbnb goes back to running its own calendar. On Co-hosting and Full Management our team does work in your listing, with access you give it through the platform's co-host feature, and you can take that access back at any time.
What happens after I sign up?
You add a property and paste its Airbnb or Vrbo calendar link (or add units and tenants for a lease). Your stays and turnovers appear within minutes. Then add your cleaner by name and phone, and share the check-in page link with your next guest. Most owners are set up in about ten minutes.
Do you take a cut of my bookings?
Not of your Airbnb, Vrbo or Booking.com bookings: Core is free and Pro is a flat $19 a month per short-term rental. The one exception is your own direct booking site on Pro, where Rentalhand keeps 1% of each booking on top of the card processing fee, which is how the site and its payments are paid for. Beyond that, the only percentage pricing is for our hosting services, which you choose separately: Co-hosting at 10%, anywhere in the United States, and Full Management at 20%, in Los Angeles and Orange County. Those are charged on the nightly rate and guest extras at check-in, never on the cleaning fee or taxes.
Can it stop double bookings?
On Pro, yes: with Airbnb connected directly, a booking or a blocked night on any connected channel, or on your own booking site, closes those dates everywhere within seconds. A channel linked only by its calendar link (iCal), such as a Vrbo listing you have not connected directly, still updates when it next reads the link, usually within the hour, so a booking made on it in between can overlap. On Core the calendar links are one way, so Rentalhand flags overlapping dates immediately but cannot change availability on the platforms; keep your platform calendars linked to each other as you do today.
Who can see my data?
You, and the people you invite: your cleaner sees only the tasks assigned to them and a guest sees only their own stay. Rentalhand reads platform notification emails only to file them in your inbox. A direct Airbnb connection is approved by you on Airbnb's own page and never involves your password. You can export your financials and rent roll at any time.
Do all plans include tools for long-term rentals?
Yes. Core, Pro, Co-hosting and Full Management all include the landlord workspace, free: units, tenants, leases, rent collection, maintenance and access codes in one place. Our Co-hosting and Full Management teams look after short-term stays; you run your leases yourself with the included software. We never place tenants or manage leases on your behalf, which in most states is licensed work, and landlords can order a move-out turnover or maintenance coordination as quoted services.
Where do you offer co-hosting, cleaning and management?
Co-hosting is run remotely, so it is available anywhere in the United States; you arrange the cleaner and repairs at your property. Full Management is in Los Angeles and Orange County. Rentalhand cleaning is done by our own crew in Los Angeles and Orange County, with Palm Springs by arrangement; elsewhere it is done by approved independent cleaners near you, and some areas have none yet. Owners anywhere can use Core and Pro with their own cleaner, and run their leases for free.
