Established Vacation Rental Management Franchise

Business Overview:

Established Vacation Rental Management Franchise | Home Based

This established home-based vacation rental management business offers the opportunity to acquire an existing portfolio of professionally managed short-term rental properties in Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead, one of Southern California's premier year-round vacation destinations. Operating within protected mountain markets, the business generates recurring revenue through ongoing homeowner management relationships while benefiting from the support, technology, and brand recognition of an established national franchise.
The business manages approximately 20+ vacation rental properties and has developed strong relationships with homeowners, local service providers, and independent contractors. Operations are supported by proprietary technology, booking distribution across major online travel platforms, guest service infrastructure, and revenue management tools, allowing the owner to focus on client relationships and business growth.

With no retail location and minimal overhead, this home-based operation provides flexibility while offering significant opportunity for an owner who enjoys hospitality, sales, and relationship management. According to the Seller, there are more than 5000 vacation rentals throughout the San Bernadino mountains, providing a substantial potential market for a motivated new owner to pursue additional homeowner management relationships and expand the existing portfolio.

Franchise Note: A new owner will be subject to the franchisor's then-current franchise agreement, fee structure, approval requirements, and Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), which may differ from those applicable to the current owner. Qualified buyers will receive additional franchise information as part of the confidential review process.
