Why it costs less

The price is the price.

The big platforms stack a cleaning fee, a ~14% guest service fee and a pile of add-ons on top of the nightly rate — then charge the host a commission too. My Rental Spot does it the hotel way: one all-in nightly rate, booked direct.

Safety & trust

Verified guests. Protected hosts.

Letting a stranger into your place should come with more than a profile photo. We ID-verify every renter and screen for evictions and criminal history — the same screening we run on long-term tenants.

✅

ID verified

We confirm the guest is who they say they are before they can book.

👥

Screened

Checked for evictions and criminal history — flagged before the booking, not after.

💳

Refundable deposit

Require a security deposit charged only on an approved damage claim.

🏦

Same standard as tenants

The screening we run for long-term leases, applied to every nightly guest.

🛡️ Protect your property — carry good insurance. Screening lowers the risk, but it doesn’t remove it. My Rental Spot is a listing & booking platform, not an insurer — we verify and screen guests, but we don’t cover damages. Just like renting to anyone, we strongly recommend short-term-rental or landlord insurance as your backstop.

Common questions

Short-term rental pricing, answered

Is there a cleaning fee?+
No. Owners set one all-in nightly rate with turnover baked in, so guests never see a separate cleaning fee at checkout — the thing everyone hates about the big platforms.
What does a guest actually pay?+
The nightly rate, plus a flat 5% booking fee and local occupancy tax. That’s it — no cleaning fee and no host commission stacked on top. Pet or extra-guest fees only apply if the owner charges them and you bring a pet or exceed the guest count.
What does it cost a host?+
Listing is free — no monthly or per-door fees. Hosts keep 100% of their nightly rate; the small 5% is paid by the guest, not skimmed from your payout.
Can guests book directly on my page?+
Yes. Each listing gets a public booking page where guests check availability and book directly, so you are not paying a third-party booking commission.
Are guests screened?+
Yes. Every renter is ID-verified and screened for evictions and criminal history — the same screening we run on long-term tenants. You can also require a refundable security deposit charged only on an approved damage claim. My Rental Spot is a platform, not an insurer, so we recommend hosts carry short-term-rental insurance too.
Do you handle occupancy or lodging tax?+
Yes. Collect the correct occupancy tax on each stay and pull the summary you need to file it.
Can I manage short-term and long-term together?+
Yes. Nightly stays and long-term leases live in the same account — switch a unit between them and manage everything from one dashboard.
