Key Takeaways

Generated from the text of customer reviews

OwnerRez is a property management platform for vacation rental owners and managers. Independent hosts use it, as do property management teams overseeing multiple rentals. Users often praise its reliable booking sync across major rental channels. The platform can take some time to configure, though, particularly for users setting up more complex workflows. OwnerRez has also introduced Rezzy AI, a built-in assistant that helps manage guest messages and routine daily tasks.

Our Verdict

OwnerRez is a better fit for property managers handling payouts and accounting for multiple property owners than for solo hostsp. Its starting price is reasonable when a business can make use of the platform's wider range of capabilities. The software can support a growing rental portfolio. Users who place greater importance on a quick onboarding process may find the setup less appealing.

OwnerRez Features

Accounting

OwnerRez supports unlimited payment methods. This gives hosts flexibility in how they collect payments from guests. The platform also provides several options for handling property damage protection. These include card holds, refundable deposits, and per-booking insurance. Hosts can choose the approach that suits a particular property and its booking requirements.

Property Management

Property managers can give owners, cleaners, and maintenance staff separate portal logins. Its acce uses ss is assigned by property or owner, and it limits what each user sees. Permissions also control actions like blocking dates or viewing owner statements, which reduces unnecessary access while keeping operations organized.

See How It Works
Channel Management

OwnerRez lets hosts choose between Instant Book and Request-to-Book on channels that support both options. The setting can be configured separately for each property. Airbnb requires Instant Book when a host already uses it on another connected channel. This requirement is reflected in the platform's channel settings. It can help hosts avoid configuration issues before their listings go live.

Reporting

Among its reports, OwnerRez includes a dedicated Taxes Detail Report that shows the amount collected for each jurisdiction. This can help property managers determine the sales tax owed to the appropriate authority. Reports can be narrowed down by the property, date range, or calculation method. The results can also be exported to Excel or CSV for further analysis.

Renter Agreements

The platform can send a separate signing link for bookings received through channels such as Airbnb or Vrbo. This is useful when a guest has not provided a direct email address through the booking channel. After the signing process is completed, OwnerRez can request the guest's actual contact details. The platform also supports separate signing links for individual travelers in the same group. Each person can therefore complete their own agreement instead of relying on a single signature for the entire booking.

“Fast relaunch”

Pros

Getting started with this software was a standout experience thanks to the excellent support and onboarding. The 14 day free trial gave me complete access which let me build and relaunch everything without feeling rushed or pressured. The Jumpstart call was especially helpful and their team followed up afterward with clear detailed and well organized guidance. Other than that the support team members handled my post launch tickets quickly and clearly. They even restored my account within hours which saved me a huge amount of rebuild time and made it possible to relaunch my direct booking site in only three days. The hosted website templates are clean, reliable and built with a clear purpose so you can get up and running quickly without dealing with unnecessary complexity.

Cons

In the beginning the platform can feel a little intimidating because it includes a lot of features and offers a high level of configuration. There's a lot of capability built into it. However the documentation, video tutorials and responsive support team do a lot to make the difficulty level manageable. Once the structure starts to click the system becomes extremely efficient. I was able to relaunch my website in just three days using the Hosted Website platform which shows how fast you can move once you get oriented.

“All in one value that delivers”

Pros

Having everything in one place is exactly what I needed and this software checks all the boxes. It brings together the full feature set, simple property management, guest communication, security and useful tools in one system which makes it an excellent value for the price. The support team has also been great and the trainer we had was extremely well informed and very pleasant to work with.

Cons

There is definitely a lot to learn at first but that comes with the territory when a platform offers this many features for such a complex industry.

“powerful booking sync and messaging”

Pros

Keeping bookings synced across Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com and other channels has been a huge plus. It also helps a lot to have all renter messages in one place and having access to their damage insurance is another valuable benefit.

Cons

At first the platform can feel a bit overwhelming because there are so many features and tools available. That said the training and support team do a really good job of helping you get up to speed.
