Holiday home management guides for owners

Peachy looks after holiday homes on the Mornington Peninsula and in selected parts of regional Victoria, from family beach houses in Rosebud and Capel Sound to cabins in the Main Ridge hills. These guides are what we tell owners in person, written down so you can read them at your own pace.

Every guide answers one question owners ask us before they decide anything. What does management really cost, and what sits outside the fee? How is a nightly price worked out? What happens to the guests already booked if you change managers? What does an empty house need before its first guest arrives?

We have tried to keep the detail and lose the jargon. The pricing guide follows one real New Year’s Day night, step by step, through the same model our founders built to price every home we manage. It learns from 20,426 bookings across 248 homes from the three holiday rental businesses in our group, and we explain each step in plain words and dollars.

Every figure has a date and a source, folded away at the end of each guide under “How we worked this out”. Every photo is a real Peachy home, named and placed, and every portal screen is our real owner portal with sample figures. Where a number would only be a guess, like what your home will earn, we leave it for your proposal instead.

The guides are written by Tom, our CEO and co-founder, with Guss, Ellie, Amber and Breony, the people who will look after your home. If something here doesn’t answer your question, ask us. We would rather talk it through than have you guess.
