Kropp Collective, home

For owners around Green Lake

Co-hosting for a few homes, known all the way down.

Kropp Collective is a small local team around Green Lake. We would rather know a few homes deeply than many homes a little, and we are personally involved in every one we look after.

What we look after

Five kinds of work, one small team.

Full-service co-hosting means the whole of the work, not a slice of it. Here is what that covers, in the words we use with owners.

  1. 01

    Co-hosting, start to finish

    Guest communication, turnovers, pricing, maintenance and compliance. One local team answers for all of it.

    You do not need to live nearby. We look after everything on the ground, so you can be fully hands-off.

  2. 02

    Pricing and listings

    Dynamic pricing, multi-platform exposure and professional listing optimization, for one home at a time.

    Rates
    Adjusted with pricing tools and local market data.

    Guest messages and screening

    Every message, from booking to checkout.

    Guests are screened and verified. They get clear instructions and a unique door code before arrival, and every question comes to us.

    We coordinate professional cleaners, restocking, inspections and quality checks after every stay, so the tenth guest finds what the first one did.

    When something breaks, we assess the issue, coordinate repairs and handle guest accountability when appropriate.

    Statements and payouts

    Know how your home is doing without having to ask.

The owner journey

From the first evaluation to the monthly statement.

The whole sequence, in order. First what happens before your first guest, then what happens around every stay after that.

Part one

Before the first guest

Usually 2 to 4 weeks, depending on how ready the home is.

    We evaluate the home and what it needs to be guest-ready. It can start with a free rental analysis.

    Setup and staging

    Staging, supply lists and a deep clean where needed. Any setup costs are outlined upfront.

  3. 03

    Photography prep

    The home is made ready for professional photography, the pictures every listing is built on.

  4. 04

    Listing and pricing

    Professional listing optimization, a direct booking page with calendar sync, and rates set with pricing tools and local market data.

  5. 05

    Live

    Most homes go live within 2 to 4 weeks, depending on readiness, photography and onboarding.

  11. Every month

    Payout and statement

    An automated payout, and a detailed monthly statement of revenue, fees and expenses.

Fees

A monthly plan, and a setup fee quoted for your home.

The monthly plan covers the tech services and software tools. The setup fee is paid once. It varies from home to home, so we quote it for each home upfront.

Before you call

Who we are not right for.

A small team can only go deep on a few homes, so some are better served elsewhere. Better to say so now than after an evaluation.

  • A home that is not yet furnished.

    Short-term rentals must be fully furnished and stocked. If yours is close, we can guide you on what is needed.

  • A home that cannot meet the rules.

    Every home we look after must meet local regulations and guest-ready standards.

  • A home meant for parties.

    Parties and events are not allowed in the homes we look after.

  • A home far from the lake.

    We work in Green Lake and the surrounding area around the lake. Further afield, we are not the right people.
