Short-Term Rental Properties We Manage

When my fiancé Cesar and I decided to open our home up to Airbnb, we of course had the same hesitations that any homeowner would. We love our home and only wanted to share it with people who would treat it the way we would. We were fortunate to get connected to Donna Roberts from 1st Property Management Solutions, LLC. Donna is not only educated in every aspect of Airbnb, but is a highly productive and generous collaborator.

She treats our property with the utmost care, leverages her carefully curated professional relationships to help service our home, and goes above and beyond for us, our guests, and any people we interact with. Through her love of Warwick, she brings a warmth and sentimental touch to everyone’s experience that simply would not be possible with most corporate property management entities.

In the 6 months that have passed since we started working with Donna to share our home as a short term rental with Airbnb, our home and guests have been under her phenomenal care. We have a perfect 5-star review record and are now Airbnb Superhosts. I can attest that in no uncertain terms, I cannot imagine coordinating a short term rental without Donna’s support and genuine care. I’d be lost and losing my mind without her!

In short, Donna is a highly adept and trustworthy professional and I highly recommend her and 1st property Management Solutions, LLC as excellent property managers.
