Summer is here and we’re talking vacation rentals on this week’s Yellowbird Connect podcast. Kyle sits down with Steve Milo, founder and CEO of VTrips, one of the largest vacation rental management companies in the US with over 1,800 properties in 5 states. Steve talks about the tricks for managing such a massive portfolio, how technology and the internet are changing the landscape of vacation rentals, and the secrets to keeping people coming back for repeat visits. If you want to hear even more from Steve, make sure to attend our next Connect event on July 11th where he will be part of a Q&A panel all about short term rentals!
