Broker of Record for Short-Term Rental Property Managers

Who This Page Is For

Questions to Review Before a BOR Call

• Are you collecting rent, deposits, owner funds, or guest payments?
• Are you signing leases, management agreements, or owner authorization documents?
• Are you advertising management or leasing services under your own brand?
• Do you need trust account procedures for owner funds or tenant/guest deposits?
• Do you have E&O insurance and general liability coverage in place?
• Are you managing only your own properties, or properties owned by other people?

Short-Term Booking Reports and Lease Fees

We accept exported reports from Airbnb and Vrbo for short-term rental activity, and from Buildium and AppFolio for property management. Upload readable PDF report exports for the relevant reporting month through the secure portal; coordinate other export formats with Loom. Include activity and payout reports, rent rolls, ledgers and reconciliation evidence as applicable. Loom confirms the required supporting records and follows up on gaps; third-party reports support review and do not replace required bank statements, trust reconciliations or executed agreements.

For Airbnb, Vrbo or similar third-party platform bookings under 30 days, platform reporting is acceptable and there is no $30 lease fee per booking. The $30 fee applies per fully executed lease with a rental term of 30 days or more, including midterm rentals; it is not a monthly lease-review charge.

Management, leasing and/or sales are included at $500/month plus $500 one-time Loom onboarding. Each approved trust account requires $100 per month, and each new property onboarded has a separate $50 admin fee. Qualifying new leases are $30 each; renewals have no fee. Corporate-DO sales are 1% of gross commission received per represented seller/buyer side plus $250 per side. The booking fee exception does not remove the ongoing supervision and reporting requirements for your approved scope. See pricing and monthly examples.

Independent Branding and Oversight

Many operators want to keep their own LLC, website, client relationships, and operating brand. BOR service can fit that model, but "minimal oversight" still has to mean real broker supervision, DRE compliance review, advertising standards, trust fund procedures, file documentation, insurance review, and monthly issue reporting where applicable.

Loom Realty is not a law firm, CPA firm, insurance broker, or financial advisor. Entity, tax, insurance, local short-term rental ordinance, and platform-specific questions should be reviewed with qualified advisors.
