Your rental is booked.
Is it profitable?
"Revenue is vanity. Margin is sanity."
Cribs manages short-term rentals across Central Texas. Take our assessment and we'll show you exactly where your margin is leaking, then walk your property to plug it.
Quick assessment • No obligation • No login required
Three steps. Zero guesswork.
Direct path to plugging margin leaks in your short-term rental.
Step One
Take the assessment
Tell us about your property, current performance, and goals. You'll get an immediate read on where your revenue is leaking.
Step Two
Talk to a Cribs specialist
A local property specialist reviews your answers, benchmarks you against our Central Texas portfolio, and flags the biggest margin opportunities.
Step Three
Get a Profit Walk on-site
We visit your property and walk it room by room, from pricing and amenities to turnover costs and listing gaps. You leave with a concrete margin plan.
High occupancy.
Thin margin. Sound familiar?
Your calendar looks full. Your reviews look great. Then the owner statement lands, and somehow the math doesn't add up.
Owner Reality CheckCentral Texas
We look where other managers don't.
Eight operational levers quietly determine whether your rental builds wealth or just creates work.
Dynamic pricing
Weekends, events, and seasonality left uncaptured. Think SXSW, ACL, UT game days, F1, and holidays.
Listing performance
Weak photos, titles, and amenity tags that cost you search ranking and clicks.
Turnover costs
Cleaning, laundry, and supply spend benchmarked against our Central Texas portfolio.
Amenity ROI
What actually raises your nightly rate (hot tub, game room, pool heat) and what just costs money.
Guest capacity
Layout or bed configurations that could sleep more guests at a higher rate.
Channel mix
Over-reliance on one platform, plus direct-booking opportunities to cut fees.
Maintenance and utilities
Preventable repairs, vendor pricing, and smart-home savings.
Gap nights and minimum stays
Orphan nights and stay rules that quietly kill occupancy.
Built by operators. Run like a portfolio.
Getting bookings is the easy part. Protecting your net margin is where people lose.
Scale you can borrow
Our vendor rates, commercial laundry pricing, and deep market data are yours from day one.
Local, not remote
We're on the ground in Austin, Round Rock, Georgetown, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, and beyond. When a guest calls at midnight, we answer.
Big-group specialists
We run homes that sleep large groups. Group stays are the highest-margin segment in the market, and most managers can't handle them.
Owner-first reporting
Monthly statements that show net profit, not just gross bookings. You see the true margin landing in your account.
Tax-strategy friendly
Using your rental as a tax strategy? Our co-host model is built to support your participation hours and documentation.
Using STR as a tax strategy?
Our co-host model handles operations while keeping your material participation hours intact for cost segregation.
Numbers, not promises.
This isn't theory. This is what we do

"I thought my last manager was doing fine. Cribs showed me I was underpricing every UT home game. That alone paid their fee."
