Why Partner With ⑨⑦⑨ To Represent Your Home?

Our commitment to you and your home's rental guests is to consistently deliver the cleanest, most comfortable, and cared-for home, and in fact, that is our tagline. We understand your vacation home is a cherished place for you, your family, and your friends to relax, enjoy our island setting, and make wonderful memories. Renting your vacation home to travelers can help pay for taxes, mortgage payments, insurance, repairs, and also put some extra cash in your pocket. However, most owners fear their home will be damaged or exploited by guests.

At 979 Vacation Property Services, we aim to mitigate that fear and protect your asset while maximizing your income. We are your full-service LOCAL vacation rental management partner and treat each home like we would our own. We offer our homeowner partners the peace of mind that comes with expert rate optimization (a delicate blend of the objective and subjective, as no two homes are alike) and exemplary home care. For our guest travelers, we aim to provide a seamless, as close as we humanly can, browsing to booking and check-in to check-out experience. We do love those repeat courteous guests.

Not only will you find your home's listing online on the big 3, VRBO/HomeAway, Airbnb, and Google Vacation Rentals, but you'll find it beautifully displayed on Hopper.com, Savvy.com, Booking.com, and our own 979 sites and social media platforms.

First-Rate Supplies
Our guests get spoiled, humans and pups alike!

Peace of Mind
Protecting your home is a #1 priority for our 979 Crew.  Our homes are covered in not just one but three unique ways. 1. Each of our home's is 24/7 "Smart Home" equipped, so guests and contractors only have access to your home when they should, and they can only set the thermostat to a reasonable seasonal temp. Your pocketbook thanks you. 2. Your home is automatically covered with $1M liability/damage and $10K in contents PRIMARY insurance on every guest stay. 3. And after your guests depart, your home's assigned Field Manager is the first one on the scene to inspect your home for any damage or missing items. They get to know your home better than anyone else, except you of course. This is a role in additional to our Housekeeping Staff.
