The Dynamic Difference
Community
To help communities embrace short term rentals, we have processes in place to show respect for your neighbours. We form House Rules for your property and communicate them clearly to guests, covering issues like noise and parties. We know the upkeep of a property is also important, so we work to keep the property presentable for guests and the neighbours too. We give back to communities by employing local cleaners, gardeners and tradespeople. We have a multi-lingual team (Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Greek, English). We have short term rental offices in Olinda and Abbotsford.We have an Olinda local working within the short term rental property management team.
Experience, Trust & Reliability
Not all short-term property managers out there are licensed or experienced, as currently they don't need to be. As Dynamic Residential is a licensed Real Estate Agency, we operate our short stays business at the same high level as the (completely governed) long-term rental sector, we keep detailed logs of all communications and finances, use trust accounting and are audited. All the while, we maintain full transparency to give you peace of mind. We have an in-house cleaning team who clean short term rental properties that we manage. We offer the service of sourcing furniture and furnishings, and styling your property.

We’ll visit the home and recommend any extra furniture, appliances and styling you need to give your guests an irresistible five-star stay.

Stunning professional photography
It only takes a second to capture a prospective guest’s attention. We’ll elevate your property advertising through on-trend, professional images to make heads turn.
How? Our photography partner will work with your Dynamic property manager to showcase your property’s best features.
A premium advertising solution
Every property is unique. We’ll find your property’s X factor to shine above the rest while capitalising on your audience and maximising booking potential.
How do we do it?
We’ll manage all the advertising on your behalf, from copywriting to photography to posting online and taking bookings.
We’ll increase your exposure by listing on all of these websites: Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, dynamic residential website
House manual
A house manual is important in communicating important information to your guests to improve their stay and feel at home.
We’ll compile all information your guests need for their stay, including dining, entertainment, sightseeing and local transport options.
Guest communications
Part of what makes a stay great is how the host makes you feel. We vet guests and handle all communications in the lead-up and during their stay. We also provide access to the property and act as the point of contact for queries, emergencies and complaints.
Cleaning
Everything should be in order when a guest arrives for a comfortable visit. Let us take care of the housekeeping by sourcing and managing the cleaning with a full linen service between each stay, so you don’t have to.
Maintenance inspections
We understand it’s not always easy to monitor an investment property if you live far away. We’ll conduct a thorough inspection of your property twice a year to check for maintenance issues to prevent future urgent repairs. We’ll also check for items that need replacing due to wear and tear or have gone missing. This is in addition to ad hoc visits to ensure everything is as it should be and the cleaning team reporting back any issues after each guest.
Damage
Dynamic Residential will manage insurance claim process for you, as well as claims through Airbnb and other platforms. In the instance of a successful claim from an online booking platform, we will deposit the funds into your account immediately. Funds from successful claims lodged with your insurance company will be paid direct from them to you.
When you appoint Dynamic Residential to manage your short stay property, we will manage every aspect of your short term rentals. We prepare the property, advertise it, handle bookings, give guests access and provide them with all the information they need for a great stay. We arrange cleaning and linen changes to prepare the property for the next guests. We also handle financials, pay the property related outgoings and provide you with statements, giving you full transparency at any point so you still feel in control. Where damage occurs, we will also handle the claims for you. We deposit profits into your bank account monthly.
We handle it all, so you have more time to life your life.

Managing a short term rental home takes a lot of time and organisation. For owner-managers who don’t have the software, staff and dedicated time that property managers have, it can be overwhelming. At Dynamic Residential, we have you covered so you no longer have to deal with any of the usual headaches.
- Fielding guests queries and communications – We keep the ratio of properties per team member low, as well as having the best software supporting the team, so our dedicated property managers have more time to communicate with guests, passing on information, answering questions and keeping them excited for their stay.
- Guests getting access – we utilise keyless entry and smart keyboxes where we can, so guests can gain access to the property at ay time of the day or night.
- Generating new bookings - We ensure the advertisements for your properties are kept fresh and engaging with professional photography and a professionally written description. We advertise on multiple platforms to reach a wider audience. We generate repeat customers by advertising to our database of guests via emails and social media, amongst
- Setting the price – No longer will you need to spend time researching local events to know when demand will be up, or looking at the pricing forecast of similar properties to guess how much you should be setting your price at. We use a unique algorithm to automatically alter the nightly rate from the base rate, to match supply & demand fluctuations. This works to increase your income and occupancy rates.
- Maintenance/ Urgent repairs - Our management experience allows us to identify future issues at the property before they occur, so we can arrange preventative maintenance. This avoids costly emergency repairs. In the event of an emergency repair, we will be the point of contact for the guest and we will arrange for the repair to take place.
- Knowing what to include in the home – We will collaborate with you to ensure your home offers the guests all the inclusions that are generally expected. We provide you with a list of everything your property requires. Our more in-depth assistance, handles the whole process for you. The choice is yours.
- Damage – In the event of damage, we will arrange for the item to be fixed or replaced. We will handle the insurance or booking platform claim, whichever is relevant.
- Double bookings – Our software and processes work to eliminate the occurrence of double bookings, so you can rest assured that 2 groups will not be turning up to stay at the same time.
- Finding a good property manager – Not all short-term property managers out there are licenced or experienced, as currently they don’t need to be. As Dynamic Residential is a licenced Real Estate Agency, we operate our short stays business at the same high level as the (completely governed) long-term rental sector; we keep detailed logs of all communications and finances, use trust accounting and are audited. All the while, we maintain full transparency to give you peace of mind.
