About this episode

James talks with Savvy CEO Eric Goldreyer about the challenges and solutions in the short-term rental industry.

Savvy is the marketplace he's been building toward for 30 years. We connect travelers directly with vetted, professional property managers. No Airbnb. No Vrbo. No 15-20% platform fees. Just professional hospitality at a fair price, with the guest relationship staying where it belongs. 150,000+ properties. 2,500+ professional property managers. The short-term rental industry has a trust problem, a fee problem, and a consistency problem. Professional property managers solve all three — they just need a marketplace that’s built for them, not against them. James talks with Savvy CEO Eric Goldreyer!
