Who it’s for

This service suits owners in Los Angeles and Palm Springs who value a design-centric aesthetic and a hands-off approach. If you're looking for management in markets beyond these two, Open Air Homes is not an option.

Our take

Operating since 2012 from Venice Beach, CA, Open Air Homes focuses on a full-service model in LA and Palm Springs. They clearly publish their management fee structure, which ranges from 20–25% of revenue, plus a $125 monthly fee. Notably, they do not apply markups on maintenance costs, a transparency benefit for owners. The company's size is described as local, and the exact number of listings is not disclosed.

Verdict

An established, design-focused manager for specific California locales, Open Air Homes offers clear pricing. For owners prioritising a company with an explicit owner-first philosophy and a broader reach, One Fine BnB is our top recommendation.
