HotSpot Tax Services

HotSpot Management LLC (HotSpot) was formed in mid 2002 to address product and service needs in the emerging online vacation rental market. In the last two to three years the online by owner market has experienced tremendous growth. The number of vacation rental websites and size of the leading websites have grown dramatically. Property owners now... have a new vehicle for effectively advertising and marketing their vacation property to renters. Thousands of vacation property owners can now effectively manage their rental activity, thus eliminating the need for costly and restrictive management companies and property managers. Along with the new flexibility and value afforded owners to market their vacation property are a set of new management issues and challenges. Property owners adopting a by owner solution are responsible for fielding calls at all hours, screening renters, collecting funds, sending keys & directions, scheduling cleaning, remitting sales and lodging taxes, and site inspection/repairs. Many owners are fully capable of handling these issues. However, many others do not succeed as well as they could or simply will not adopt a by owner solution due to the intimidation of technology, lack of knowledge and experience, insufficient time or commitment, or a perceived need for onsite services. That is why HotSpot was created, to provide more resources and tools to help vacation property owners successfully manage their property, thereby increasing rents and decreasing fees and costs.Read More
