Managing properties for homeowners can become challenging when property managers have to address requests pertaining to financial transparency. Property homeowners often seek updates regarding the amount of expenses they are likely to incur and the potential income that their properties will generate.

Property managers often operate multiple Short-Term Rentals for different property homeowners. They handle bookings and expenses and send payments at the end of each month. Therefore, manual collaboration with homeowners becomes quite challenging. While recognizing these difficulties, Clearing has made working with homeowners much easier by offering enhanced collaboration functionality.

With Clearing’s exciting new feature, you can invite property homeowners to monitor financial activities regarding their properties. This streamlined approach ensures that keeping financial activities transparent for homeowners is as simple and effective as it can be. This not only helps property managers of Short-Term Rentals ensure financial transparency, but it also helps save valuable time and effort, which can be used to scale the business or build more homeowner relationships.

Property homeowners who accept the invite into Clearing will get their own portal so they can log in to Clearing with specific credentials they create. From here, they can view transactions and reporting metrics for properties that they have access to.
