Problem
Apartment owners often have vacant units while traveling but lack the time, expertise, or resources to list them on short‑term rental platforms and manage the associated operational tasks, resulting in missed income opportunities.
Solution
Reeku offers a fully managed short‑term rental service that turns unused apartments into revenue-generating assets. Property owners complete a brief online form with their unit details and travel dates, after which Reeku creates optimized listings on major platforms such as Airbnb and VRBO. The platform applies a dynamic pricing engine to maximize nightly rates and automatically synchronizes calendars to avoid double‑booking. Reeku coordinates professional cleaning services, handles guest communication, check‑in/out procedures, and ensures compliance with local regulations. Rental earnings are transferred to the owner after deducting a service fee, while the apartment is returned clean and ready for personal use. Owners can track bookings, earnings, and occupancy through a secure web dashboard.
Target Audience
The service targets apartment owners who travel frequently or have predictable periods of vacancy and want to generate rental income without managing day‑to‑day operations.
