Going overseas, travelling for work, renovating, or spending extended time away? Oasis Stay provides complete Airbnb management with no minimum term, so you can enjoy your time away while your vacant property earns extra income.
A short‑term listing behaves nothing like a long lease. One property can generate more guest messages in a week than a tenancy produces in a year, and none of them wait for business hours. Guests arrive late, ask for early check‑ins and lock themselves out on a Sunday afternoon, all expecting a quick reply. For a team already busy across a full rent roll, absorbing that has to come from somewhere, and it tends to be the work that was already booked for the day.
The day‑to‑day load sits with us. Guest communication runs through our team every day of the week, including the after‑hours messages that would otherwise land on your staff. Cleaning and linen are scheduled around each booking so a property is turned over and ready for the next guest, rather than waiting on a weekly long‑term roster. Maintenance is logged and actioned quickly, and check‑ins run however the property is set up, from a smart lock to someone meeting the guest at the door. As you take on more properties, that coordination stays with us.
Adding short stays only helps your agency if the guest experience holds up every time. A poor review or a property that wasn’t cleaned properly reflects on whoever the owner trusted to manage it, and that is you. Our Australia‑based team runs every property to a consistent standard, so the short‑stay side reinforces your name instead of putting it at risk. You and your owners can track how each listing is performing through an owner portal, so nothing about the arrangement feels hidden.
A nightly rate is never set once and left alone. It shifts with the season, local events, weekday and weekend demand and what comparable listings are charging that month. We adjust pricing dynamically so a property is neither sitting empty at too high a rate nor booked out at too low a one. Listings are written, photographed and optimised to perform across Airbnb and the major platforms, aimed at the guests who actually search for that kind of stay.
Building this in‑house means hiring and training for work your team doesn’t do yet, then carrying the cost while everyone finds their feet. Partnering with Oasis Stay skips all of that. Your agency can offer Airbnb and short‑term rental management straight away, backed by a team that already does it across Australia. The commission is a flat 18% plus GST of net rental revenue, with no hidden fees and no lock‑in, so there is nothing fixed on your books and nothing stopping you trialling it on a handful of properties. Most listings go live within five working days.
Short‑stay rules in Australia keep shifting, and they vary by council and state. Victoria now applies a 7.5% short‑stay levy on platform bookings. Elsewhere, councils may cap how many nights a property can be let, and the insurance and safety obligations differ from a standard long‑term lease. Keeping across all of it is a job on its own, and getting it wrong is the kind of thing that lands back on the managing agent. We track the rules that apply to each property and set listings up to meet them, so your agency can offer short stays without picking up a regulatory headache it didn’t have before. If a property isn’t suited to short‑term letting, we will flag that early rather than after it has gone live.
Working with Oasis Stay means handing the short‑stay side to people who manage these properties full time, not a faceless offshore system. We handle the parts that make short stays demanding so your agency can broaden what it offers owners without stretching your team. The Oasis Stay team can walk you through how a partnership would run and what your owners’ properties could earn.
