We truly believe that a full-service management solution is the only way to guarantee quality across the board. By getting to know your property inside and out, we're able to handle any and all issues that may arise during your rentals. Our management service begins once the space is ready for guests, after that we take care of everything. If you need support preparing for the guests we have a la carte services for that as well. Please refer to your service agreement for specifics.
Managing all reservations and requests for information can be a time-consuming and arduous task, but not for us. Our team manages all of that for you. We have a dedicated and efficient team available 24/7 to guests.
Your property rental fee depends on its size, location, and availability. With our expertise and experience as well up to date data, we aim to determine the right price to maximize annual revenue.
You’ll get paid monthly by the 15th of the month via direct deposit. During the 1st week of each month (or the next business day) we calculate how much revenue we brought in during the previous month and your payment is processed via direct deposit.
If you're a new client, please make sure you've filled out the onboarding form so that there are no delays for your first payout. Your first payout will be the month after your first full month (Ex: Your property is listed on July 21, your first payout will be on September 15th and will include all dates prior)

Also known as owner blocks, Owner stays are booked days when the owner of a listing or someone on their behalf is staying in the property. They can also be used when a unit needs to be blocked off because the owner is doing renovations or improvements on the property.
Owner stays are not charged, so when creating an Owner stay all the fields related to monetary values are hidden. Also, no auto-invoices, auto-messages, or auto-charges will be created. However, Owner Stays will generate auto-tasks.
Owner stays appear in Financial Reporting as such, to allow for keeping track of the owner’s use of the property. They are also filterable in the Reservations module.
To add an Owner stay, select the days in the Calendar, and press “Add” → “Owner Stay”.
The same can be done by adding a new reservation from the Reservations module and changing the status to Owner Stay.
In the calendar, an owner stays can be easily identified/ spotted in the color "Blue". You can differentiate these reservations which will showcase in the color of blue not only on monthly, multi, and yearly calendars but also in the mini calendar that Hostaway shows in the Inbox when a thread is open:
The reimbursement amount granted to guests who cancel their reservation varies according to the cancellation policy chosen. We adjust your rental rates according to the season, occupancy rates and local events, and do our utmost to offer you the best cancellation policy for your needs.
Canceling a booking as an owner can have a serious impact on guests and hurt your property’s performance. Cancellations can result in poor reviews, which can lead to fewer bookings for your property — and some of Elbowroom's partner sites even limit exposure or temporarily suspend listings that cancel guest reservations. On top of that, many listing sites also impose cancellation fees. For these reasons, Elbowroom highly recommends avoiding owner-initiated cancellations whenever possible. Of course, we recognize there are certain circumstances when canceling a guest reservation might be absolutely necessary. What steps should I take to cancel a guest reservation? Whether you’ve accidentally double-booked your property or experienced an extreme circumstance, here’s what you’ll need to do:
If an unforeseen emergency situation has occurred, immediately block any open dates in your booking calendar for the amount of time you think you’ll need to restore your home to renting-ready condition.
If a booking needs to be canceled that’s more than 5 days away, click email us at partners@getelbowroom.com . Include any documentation you have around your reason for canceling.
If a booking needs to be canceled that begins in the next 5 days, still send the email with the details but also call 506.801.2526 to contact our team immediately.
We’ll then handle guest communications, and will reach out to you via email if we need any additional documentation.
Will I owe a fee, and can I avoid it?
You’ll be charged a fee when you cancel a guest’s reservation. The cancellation fee will be equal to the gross revenue including cleaning fee + $50 + tax per cancelled reservation. The fee will be deducted from a future payout that is large enough to have the entire fee applied.
In certain situations, you may be eligible for a refund or removal of that charge if you provide proper documentation of the issue and/or repair within 10 days of the cancellation.
Please be prepared to supply the following:
For completed third-party repairs:
Photos or screenshots of the issue (if visible)
An invoice or a work order from the business that completed the repairs, which should note your listing address and the business’ contact information
For repairs you completed yourself:
Photos or screenshots of the issue (if visible), as well as photos that prove it was resolved
Receipts for the repair materials
For repairs that are not complete:
Photos or screenshots of the issue (if visible)
A list of actions taken thus far (including dates)
An estimated timeline for work to be completed
Please note: All documentation must be dated around the time of the guest booking. Videos will not be accepted.
If any necessary documentation is missing from your initial request to cancel, we'll follow up via email to ask for it.
If your request is approved for fee reimbursement, we’ll be able to add the amount as a credit to future statement. If the fee hasn’t been applied to a future booking yet, we’ll void it immediately.
To ensure that your guests have a unique and unforgettable stay, you should not enter your property without first asking our team. Outside of emergencies or maintenance we do not enter the premises while a guest is there.
You can block any dates you want to access your home in the Owner Portal.
It takes 10 business days from the time your property is 100% ready for us to get the listing live.
We use a combination of platforms to generate the highest revenue and the highest occupancy possible including Airbnb, VRBO, and direct bookings. Where your listing is posted depends on the type of listing you have and the type of guest we’re looking to attract, you may be on one or all of these platforms.
It’s hard to say until we get started but on average we bring in 30% more than a long term rental would. But we can assure you our target is not just to take away the hassle of hosting, it's to help you earn more as well.
We prepare your listings with care, and adjust your prices dynamically. This means that the price of your apartment rental will be adapted according to different criteria (day of the week, occupancy of neighbouring properties, past prices, local events) with the aim of achieving the best price possible.
We are extremely careful when selecting guests. On Airbnb and similar platforms, we check if your future guests have been well-reviewed. For direct bookings, we only take referrals.
We use professional photographers to ensure the photos are the highest possible quality. This makes for a more attractive listing and a higher occupancy rate.
We've developed our own pricing adjustment system. Based on yield management strategies, rental rates are updated daily according to the season, occupancy rates, and local events. We'll decide together on the minimum rate you want to set for your property when we adjust prices. But it's important to understand that lowering rent in the off-season allows you to boost your property's occupancy rate, which is why we encourage you to trust us and the journey.
As there is a relatively high turnover in tenants, furnishings and equipment are obviously subject to greater wear and tear. Vacation rentals require a higher level of personal property maintenance, which can lead to some additional costs.
We minimize risks by carefully screening our guests. Our house cleaning staff, who come by after your guests leave, inform us of any anomalies in your home so we can step in without delay.
We take the quality of our house cleaning services very seriously. The cleaning staff are all professionals; their services include an in-depth cleaning of the apartment and staging to match photos after guests leave.
Deep cleans are required seasonally and after any maintenance or renovations. These are charged separately and hourly.

To access your Statements first log into Hostaway and then in the left navigation bar, click on Owner Statements. You'll then see a list of all of your statements with the most recent at the top.
The Owners Statement provides details around revenue, payouts, and expenses. They're useful for financial planning and understanding your property’s performance. Here’s a closer look:
The first section of your report has Elbowroom's information as well as yours. If you need changes to the owner information please let us know and we can make that change easily.
The next section is the summary of total revenue received and how it will be dispersed for the statement period:
Following the summary you'll see a breakdown of reservations contributing to the revenue received.
Below that you'll see the expenses & extras for the period listed. Expenses are displayed in red as a negative and will include any utilities that we pay on your behalf as well as repairs or renovations. Extras would be displayed in green as a positive and would include instances where a credit is due to you that is not related to direct revenue from a reservation.
Finally you'll see a section calculating the total with the owners payout +/- any expenses or extras.
You can click the “Download” button at the top of the Owner Statement to download a PDF or CSV version of the report.
