What your Owners see in their Owner's Portal

Learn what property owners can access in the Owner's Portal, including performance data, reservations, financial documents, payments, payouts, and guest reviews.

Written by Emily Tunggala

These features are included on the Mogul plan at no additional cost.

The Owner's Portal gives property owners a dedicated place to view information about the properties you manage for them. Depending on your configuration and permissions, owners can review property performance, view their calendar and reservations, access Statements and Invoices, manage payments and payouts, and review guest feedback.

You can preview the Owner's Portal from a specific owner's perspective to see exactly what they see.

The Statements page lets owners review monthly financial activity for their properties.

A Statement can include:
