What is the Property Manager Marketplace?


The Property Manager Marketplace connects property managers with property owners who are looking for professional help managing their rentals.

When an owner submits a request, Hospitable identifies qualified property managers in their area — giving you the opportunity to express interest and grow your portfolio. If you're selected, an introduction is made so you can connect directly with the property owner.


How It Works

1. An owner submits a request

Property owners who need help managing their rentals submit a request through Hospitable. They share details about their properties, goals, preferred level of involvement, and budget.

2. Hospitable finds qualified property managers

Hospitable searches for property managers within a 30-mile radius of the owner's property. Each manager is evaluated based on location, fit, and performance quality.

Only property managers who meet the criteria receive the opportunity. Service area(s) can be customized in your Property Manager Profile, but is default to 30-mile radius of your existing properties.

3. You receive an opportunity email

If you're matched, you'll receive an email with an overview of the owner and their portfolio — including the number of properties, general location, and what they're looking for. You can choose whether to express interest or pass on the opportunity.

Responding quickly matters. Property managers who express interest sooner may be prioritized when the owner reviews their options.


4. The owner reviews interested property managers

The owner receives a curated list of property managers who expressed interest. They can review profiles and decide who to move forward with.

5. An introduction is made

If the owner selects you, Hospitable facilitates an introduction and share contact details on both sides so you can connect directly and discuss next steps.

There's no obligation on either side — both you and the owner choose whether to move forward.


How do I become eligible for opportunities?

To receive opportunities, you must be on the Mogul plan.

Once you're on Mogul, you're automatically considered for matches when owners in your area submit requests — no additional setup required.



Customize Your Marketplace Profile

You can customize how your business appears within the Marketplace.

To edit your property manager marketplace profile:

  1. Go to Operations → Your Business

  2. Click Open Marketplace Hub

From there, you can:

  • Update your bio and contact details

  • Define the services you offer, as well as service areas and your commission expectation

  • Review your marketplace quality score

Owners see your profile when reviewing matched property managers, so keeping it up to date helps you stand out.


How to Improve Your Chances of Being Matched

Hospitable evaluates property managers based on several quality areas. While you don't need to take any action to start receiving opportunities, strengthening these areas can improve your ranking:

  • Maintain strong guest reviews

  • Respond quickly to messages

  • List on multiple channels (like on Airbnb, Booking.com, VRBO or Agoda)

  • Use a Direct booking site

  • Enable dynamic pricing

  • Set up Owner Management features - Having owner statements, an owner portal, and owner payouts/payments configured shows you're ready to take on new owners.

You can review your quality areas and marketplace score on your Marketplace Hub profile, which you can find under Operations > Your Business > Open Marketplace Hub.


FAQs

Do I need to apply to be included?
No — as long as you're on the Mogul plan, you're automatically considered for opportunities based on your location and performance.

Why didn’t I receive an opportunity?
Opportunities depend on location, portfolio fit, and overall alignment with the owner’s needs. Not every request will be a match, but new opportunities will continue to come in over time.

Does responding quickly matter?
Yes — property managers who respond sooner may be prioritized when owners review interested candidates.

What information do I see about the owner?

The opportunity will show an overview of the owner's portfolio — such as number of properties, general location, goals, and any preferences they shared.
