Project Designer and Manager for your STR

What if I said that you could get back your time and energy where it matters most instead of focusing on every design decision instead?

Well I’m here to introduce our Full Design service (within the New England Area), a full design and project manager from beginning to end to help take the stress away from designing your STR.

We know that time and energy are valuable to you. Isn’t that why we start vacation rentals anyway? We want to enjoy the time while we have it, not waste it on being stressed out and tired.

Plus designing and getting a STR ready takes a lot of time and commitment, and if you’re like how my husband and I started, then you probably have a bunch of commitments already. When we bought our first STR, we were working full time, had 2 kids (and a dog), lived 2 hours away, were handling all of the communication with the contractors, doing some/most of the contract work ourselves, curating all of the design work ourselves, and installing everything…ourselves. Man, let me tell you, WE WERE EXHAUSTED! I mean I’m exhausted just writing that down!

And don’t even get me started on the startup costs for a STR, which can feel astronomical. How do you know where to spend or save the money? Should the money go towards that rug or sofa? What materials should you use? I mean how do I even know which guests to design for??

Ugh….yeah we’ve been there…

Here's the thing though…

That doesn’t have to be you.

What if all you had to do was approve a design that you and your guests loved and then it got installed for you?

Imagine a design, with a realistic budget in mind, that was geared towards the guests that you want to attract, and helps you stand out from your competition. All the while, you’re on a vacation sipping that freshly made lemonade, enjoying the sunshine, and not having to worry about your STR.

That’s what our STR design did for us.

When we bought ours, we didn’t have a design idea in mind. We actually bought the house without stepping foot in it, but that’s a story for another day! The house was in a good location in New Hampshire and it was a complete gut job. Our favorite!

We ended up doing research on what guests are attracted to that area, mixed that into what this home was for us (a vacation home and an investment), and created a design that helps us get 5-star reviews.

How do we know that? Because each guest, quality guests that we wanted to attract, who leaves a review mentions something about the design.

Take it from these guests:

Anne

The decor was fabulous and right out of a magazine but the furniture was very comfortable.
I cannot recommend this spot enough and we will plan another family vacation here in the future.

Matt

The home is impeccably decorated with so many thoughtful touches throughout, they really thought of everything.

Brian

...And the home itself is beautiful! As others have said, the pictures on the listing don't do it justice. It’s clear that a lot of care went into designing and decorating.

Not only that, our design was simple enough where we didn’t break the bank, but it feels luxurious for the guest and it’s unique enough to stand apart.

Yeah we know, it was a little different for us because I am an interior designer, decorator, and consultant, so I know what materials or where to look for the right furniture for an STR. Plus I geek out over everything interior design related! It couldn’t have been more fun!

However, this knowledge and time is something that I want to share with you.

What if someone was decisive for you?

What if someone else sourced all the materials and furniture for you?

What if someone else researched what type of guests you would be attracting, created a guest-centric design for you, and help you stand out from the competition?

What if someone handled talking to your contractors for you?

What if someone installed the design for you?

What if someone knew exactly how many linens, amenities, plates, kitchen amenities, etc. you needed and supplied that list for you?

Well then introducing...

Full Design Service

Full Design Service covers creating a complete design worthy for your STR. This includes:

Researching more about you and your property. For instance, but not limited to, what the location offers, what type of guests your area attracts, and what the home is for you.

Getting three guest centric designs to choose from. A design simultaneously focused on the type of guests you want to attract and that your area does attract.

Your own project manager. Conversing with contractors, helping to work on scheduling, going over floor plans, or managing the budget.

Curating your shopping list. We take care of the sourcing the right furniture and materials needed.

Ordering and taking care of deliveries. We take care of the ordering and deliveries of all the components of your design.

Installing the furniture and final touches into your STR. We take care of installing the design into your STR and setting it up/styling for the professional photography needed for your STR ads.

Scheduling the professional photographer – professional photos are a must for STR ads. We help coordinate and style your STR so your photos show everything that is offered for your guests.

Providing you with a cleaning booklet/checklist for your cleaners. Additionally, a checklist of what items you have within your STR.

Full Design Service is like having your own project manager to help make your STR a reality. It’s the complete package.

No need for you to sit tirelessly through all areas of the internet searching for the perfect sconce.

No more questioning what or how many linens you’ll need.

No more stressing over every little detail when you have other items within your life that require attention.

No more unknowns of how to stand apart of the competition when you don’t have a design eye.

We take all those lemons associated with designing a space and turn that into freshly made lemonade just for you. Now that sounds good!

All design services are a flat fee based off of the square footage of your project, which is paid in installments (except for travel to your home and an conversations with the contractors which are an hourly fee).

If at any point you don’t love your design or the process, you are able to back out of any future installments risk free.

Example:

$6000 for 1800 square feet

$3000 for 900 square feet

However, we are confident that you and your guests will love your design and want to dive into the luxury of your STR.

We also guarantee that we will respond to your communications within 24 hours of receiving them.

If we don’t, it’s $50 off your flat fee each time we’re late. This way you always know what’s going on and that we aren’t just leaving you in the dark.

Same goes for the initial design ideas. We guarantee your 3 design choices will be on time.

If we’re late delivering your design by the specified date and time that we’ve communicated about, then each day we’re late is $50 off your flat fee.

If you are generally strapped for time in creating a unique and completely guest-centric design, then you’re one step away from getting back the time you want.
