Questions About Listing
How do I sign up?
Click "Get Started" to create your owner account. After a quick registration, you'll subscribe ($199/year — 50% off your first year), pay via Stripe, and be taken straight into the listing wizard. The whole process takes just a few minutes.
Can I list more than one property?
Yes. Each listing is $199/year with all features included. There's no limit to how many properties you can list.
How is this different from a property manager?
Property managers typically take 8-12% of your monthly rent — that's $3,840-5,760/year on a $4,000 rental. Our annual listing fee is $199/year — a fraction of the cost. You stay in control of your property and communicate directly with renters.
What does the AI actually do?
When you enter your address, our AI pulls property details (beds, baths, sqft, year built) from public records, auto-detects your village, generates an SEO-optimized title and description, and suggests seasonal pricing based on nearby rental comps. You review and edit everything before publishing.
What is Smart Pricing?
Smart Pricing analyzes active rental listings within 5 miles of your property and calculates suggested rates for each season — peak (Jan-Mar), high (Nov-Dec/Apr), shoulder, and summer. It accounts for your amenities like pool, golf cart, and furnished status. Included with every listing.
What is AI Autopilot?
AI Autopilot automatically sends booking confirmations, check-in instructions, checkout reminders, review requests, and cleaner notifications on your behalf — all perfectly timed to each event in the rental lifecycle. You set it up once and it runs hands-free.
Can I cancel my listing?
Your annual subscription runs for the full year and can be cancelled at renewal.
Do you handle bookings or collect rent?
No. We connect you with qualified renters through your listing. You handle the lease, rent collection, and property management directly — though our built-in lease signing tool makes that process much easier. This is a listing service, not a property management company.
How does the digital lease signing work?
You create a lease from a template (or let AI generate one), enter the renter's details, and send a magic link. The renter opens it on their phone, uploads a photo ID, reviews your house rules, reads the lease, and draws their signature with their finger. A signed PDF is generated automatically and both parties get a copy.
How does review collection work?
After a renter's stay, you can send a magic link that lets the renter leave a review in about 60 seconds — no app download or account needed. Reviews appear on your listing automatically and help build trust with future renters.
How does the referral program work?
Share your referral code with a fellow Villages property owner. When they subscribe, you both get a $50 credit toward your next invoice. You can refer up to 10 owners per year.
How long until my listing is live?
Your listing can be live in minutes. The self-serve wizard handles everything — enter your address, review the AI-generated content, upload photos, and publish. No waiting for approval or manual review.
