GBAwning: All you need to be successful at real estate investing. Awning is a most excellent service aiming to help the average guy be successful at residential real estate investing. There are great real estate agents, but Awning one ups them by giving you the super powers of a professional investor. My experience was excellent. The awning model centers around your personal advisor and their website “feed”. Mine, Sean, was seasoned in both real estate and importantly as a high volume property manager. Each day, my Awning dashboard feed would be populated with choice picks selected by their underwriting teams that Sean and i would discuss. The analytics on the website would help us, in a glance, understand the numbers involved in each transaction. With a few clicks the offer could be sent off. And Sean would be totally on it the whole time. And during escrow, he helped me line up a formidable team of property managers, contractors and others along with a plan of action to get the place up and ready to rent as soon as it closed. Thank you Sean! And thank you Awning. I think I got a real jewel that will add value for generations to come in my family!

GBExceptional Short Term Rental Property Management Awning is an exceptional company and does a terrific job with Short Term Rental Property Management. Awning's services are top notch and the quality of services provided far exceed what you get with Vacasa, Red Awning, Evolve, and others. They take a much more personalized approach. The prices are a great value especially for what you get. Humberto and Andreis are super knowledgeable and extremely professional.

GBSTAY AWAY from this extremely… STAY AWAY from this extremely disorganized management company. I made the mistake of trusting them and signing up for short-term rental property management. They were consistently messing up major aspects like mixing up our smart lock with someone else's, not able to handle guest complaints in an efficient and caring manner which resulted in bad reviews, I've had to double / triple repeat myself for anything, and many many other issues. Their website states that they charge 15% but that is definitely not correct. I signed up with them wanting a completely hands-off quality management experience but I ended up having to do more work than I would have managing the house on my own because I was having to fix their mistakes and double checking their work constantly. Plus, they kept my funds from me during my last month and instead used it as credit towards that month's commission. Completely disappointed with this company. I also really did not like how AI driven everything was - their communication methods were very artificial feeling and I wasn't sure if I was talking to a bot or an actual person. I've had guests who also complained about this. All in all, I would stay far far away from them.

GBAvoid Awning - worse than doing it yourself This property management company is no more than a company that takes a significant slice of your revenue stream for barely any work. All they do is outsource to 1099 workers via mobile gig platforms, resulting in unreliable quality and poor communication. My experience was doomed from the outset. Onboarding was interrupted by my contact's vacation. The first guest arrived and had such a terrible experience they complained to Airbnb and got a partial refund - the difference was assessed as a penalty to me and not Awning for their mismanagement. I didn't learn about this until three months later due to delayed invoicing. Issues continued to mount over the short relationship I had with Awning until I terminated the agreement. Guests continued to leave poor reviews. They actually said things like "great house but terrible manager" in the listing. This resulted in a significant revenue loss for me, as all of this happened during the peak summer season. Today, I was deducted the full balance of disputed invoices which I did not approve. Their invoicing is very confusing, and their team never properly answered questions I had. Companies cannot deduct directly from checking accounts like this without proper approval, but Awning does it anyway. Since ending the Awning relationship, the listing has had 15 five-star reviews and no negative ones. It has been less stress to just manage on own.

GBAwning was great! I found Awning to be a great fit for our business model. They were responsive to all of our questions and concerns. We had a positive experience with them, no issues.
