Fees, plainly.

Most managers make you ask. Here is our entire fee structure, in full, with what each fee covers and what it doesn't.

What does Haus charge to manage your home?

Three standing fees: a 25% management commission on the rent your home collects, after guest-paid taxes and platform fees; a property management fee of $250 to $400 per month depending on home size; and a one-time $1,500 onboarding fee. Two situational charges, both listed below, apply only when they come up.

25%

of the rent your home collects

Our management commission, applied to gross rental revenue net of taxes and fees. Guest-paid taxes and platform fees come out before the percentage applies, so we never take a cut of money that was never yours. This covers pricing, listing management, guest communication, booking management, and coordination of every stay.

$250–$400

per month, by home size

The property management fee. It covers vendor coordination, availability for repairs, and everything that happens to your home outside of guest stays: the frozen pipe in February, the plow guy, the hot tub tech. Bigger houses carry more of this work, so the fee scales with size.

$1,500

one-time onboarding

Everything it takes to go from your home to a performing listing: setup, inventory, staging coordination, listing build and optimization, and photography coordination. You pay it once.

What costs extra?

Consumables and supplies (toiletries, linens when they wear out), actual vendor invoices for repairs and maintenance, and optional design or furnishing projects. Guests pay a cleaning fee on each stay, which covers turnover cleaning and is retained by Haus. Vendor work is billed at the invoice; third-party invoices over $350 that we coordinate carry a 10% coordination fee. We file guest-damage claims of $200 or more; a $150 administration fee comes out of the recovery, nothing if we recover nothing. After your own stays, we clean the home at the standard cleaning fee. The monthly property management fee rises 5% on each anniversary of your agreement, and we may hold up to $500 of payouts in reserve for guest refunds and chargebacks, released within 90 days after the agreement ends.

The math on a $60K year

An illustrative example with round numbers and our real fee structure applied. Your revenue depends on your home.

Gross revenue

$60,000

after guest-paid taxes and platform fees

Haus fees

− $18,000

$15,000 commission (25%) + $3,000 monthly fees ($250 × 12)

After recurring management fees

$42,000

70% of the example revenue, before onboarding and property expenses

  • ■ dark: remaining after recurring management fees
  • ■ sage: 25% commission
  • ■ light: monthly fees

In year one, subtract the $1,500 onboarding fee as well: $40,500 remains before property expenses. This example does not deduct repairs, supplies, utilities, insurance, property taxes, financing or income taxes. It is a fee illustration, not a profit forecast.

Compare the full annual cost.

A commission percentage alone cannot tell you which manager is the better fit. Compare the fee basis, fixed charges, services and property expenses using the same revenue assumption.

  1. Use the same starting revenue. Check whether taxes, platform fees and cleaning are included in each manager's commission basis.
  2. Add every recurring charge. Include monthly fees and any separate service charges, plus onboarding for the first year.
  3. Ask for evidence behind projected revenue. Request comparable homes, the period measured and a sample owner statement.
  4. Compare the work included. Distinguish coordinating maintenance from paying the repair invoice.
