Manage Your Vacation Rentals with Intelligence
Stop juggling spreadsheets and billing headaches. CohostIQ brings all your property management operations into one platform - so you can scale your portfolio without scaling your workload.
Built for Cohosts, by Cohosts
We've been in your shoes. We know the pain of cohost billing because we've lived it.
After years of managing vacation rentals as cohosts ourselves, we got tired of the spreadsheet chaos. Tracking different payout methods, calculating management fees, generating owner statements - it was eating up hours every month.
We built CohostIQ to solve the problems we faced every day. No more guessing which payout method an owner is using. No more manual calculations when someone switches from cohost payouts to host-only fees.
We understand the complexities of cohosting because we live them too.
We Handle the Billing Complexity
Cohost payouts, host-only fees, split payouts - we support them all
Switch owners from cohost payouts to host-only fees without breaking your billing
Different fee structures for different owners? No problem.
Management fees, cleaning pass-throughs, expense deductions - all automated
Owner statements, expenses, and payouts sync directly to QuickBooks - no double entry
