We Stay Coastal is a locally-grown property management company. Rachel and Jason Witt began hosting their own home on Airbnb and VRBO in 2012. In the years that followed, short-term rentals became a staple of Oceanside's tourism economy. They noticed a growing need for local, reliable property management. When they brought on Pete Monfeli to manage their own properties while they traveled for work, they quickly realized that a partnership was in their future. The three of them founded We Stay Coastal in 2022, continuing to provide hands-on services for their own properties, and helping other property owners gain peace-of-mind.
Presentation matters! We thoroughly clean and inspect each unit between every stay. We ensure that your home is fully staged and stocked before guests arrive. Yards and spas receive regular maintenance weekly, as well as additional clean-up between stays, as needed. We have a 24/7 maintenance team, so if something goes wrong during a stay, we are on-call to remedy the situation. By remaining hands-on with every property we manage, we anticipate potential problems with routine maintenance. Plus, regular cleans means that your house is always rental ready.
We integrate dynamic pricing and AI tools with our vacation rental software, so that pricing is constantly changing depending upon housing supply and demand. We keep rates competitive to achieve maximum occupancy for our owners. While market research currently puts occupancy averages around 50%-60% for short-term and mid-term rentals, all of our properties average between 80%-100% occupancy. While large, corporate management companies limit the amount of time owners spend at rentals in order to maximize their own profits, we respect owners' right to use their own property as much or as little as they please. Our commission rate is 5-10% lower than the market norm, and we won't nickle and dime property owners for dealing with everyday, basic concerns.
