Case study

Cozy Cove Cottage, Lake Wylie

The one home we’ve taken over from self-management. More rent, the same take-home, none of the work.

Cozy Cove Cottage at Lake Wylie from above

Rent per year

Self-managed	~$35K
With FSC, through Sep 2026	~$34K
With FSC, 2026 projected*	$50K+

Owner take-home per year

Self-managed (before their own costs and time)	~$31K
With FSC (projected*)	~$31K

Rent up from about $35K to a projected $50K+ (about 43% more). After booking-site fees and our 30%, the owners keep about the same, roughly $31K, as when they did all the work themselves. Now they don’t lift a finger.

*Rent before booking-site fees, excluding cleaning fees. 2026 is a projection. Take-home is after booking-site fees (~12%) and, with FSC, our 30%; self-managed figure is before the owner’s own costs. Every home is different; we don’t guarantee results.

Honest pricing

We’re not the cheapest. We’d rather tell you up front.

What matters is what you net, not the percentage. Our fee covers what many managers bill separately:

30% of net rental revenue (after booking-site fees). Guest cleaning fees go to cleaning, never split with FSC or the owner.

Pets

Your home, your choice.

More travelers bring their pets, and over the last 12 months our pet-friendly homes were booked more nights. If you say yes, we set clear pet rules and have our cleaners add pet steps to every turnover. We don’t charge guests an extra pet fee; the benefit is more booked nights. If you’d rather stay pet-free, that’s completely fine. Many of our homes are, and we market them just as hard.

FAQ

Owner questions, answered

What does the 30% include?

Our website and direct booking, property management and pricing software, payment processing, our team’s payroll, guest welcome gifts, cleaning supplies, toiletries, and collecting and filing all occupancy taxes. Your 70% covers owner costs: mortgage, insurance, utilities, and maintenance and upkeep (yard care, linens and kitchenware, decor). We front those costs and deduct them, with receipts, on your monthly statement. Guest cleaning fees go to cleaning, never split with FSC or the owner.

Who handles taxes?

We collect and file all occupancy taxes for every booking. You only handle your own year-end income tax, and our monthly and annual reports showing your income and maintenance expenses make that easy.

Is there a contract or setup fee?

No. There’s $0 to get started and no long-term contract. You can cancel anytime.

Can I still use my home?

Yes. Block any dates you want in the Hostfully owner app.

Who pays when something breaks?

You do, from your 70% share. We coordinate the repair, usually pay the vendor up front, and deduct it from your month-end payout, with receipts on your statement. Approval thresholds are set with each owner, so you decide which repairs we handle right away and which need your OK first.

How do you screen guests?

We only accept well-rated guests, verify ID for every booking, and have guests confirm they’ll follow the house rules before they arrive.

Do I have to allow pets?

No. It’s your decision. We’ll share what we’ve seen, and you choose.

I manage it myself now. Will I make less?

We can’t promise any home’s results. Cozy Cove did about $35K a year in rent self-managed; with us it’s on track for $50K+ (projected, before booking-site fees). After booking-site fees and our 30%, the owners keep about the same, roughly $31K, as when they did all the work themselves. Your free assessment gives an honest estimate for your home.
