DoorVault for Short Term Rental Investors

Track nightly revenue, cleaning fees, and PM statements from your Airbnb or VRBO manager the same way long term landlords track theirs.

Pain points short term rental investors know too well

Complex PM Statements

Short term rental managers send monthly statements with dozens of line items: nightly revenue, cleaning fees, platform commissions, maintenance charges, and owner disbursements. Reconciling these by hand takes hours.

Revenue Volatility

Monthly income swings wildly based on season, events, and occupancy. Without a system that tracks month over month trends, you cannot tell whether your STR manager is actually performing well or just riding a strong market.

Opaque Management Fees

Your STR manager charges a percentage of revenue plus cleaning fees, maintenance markups, and sometimes supply restocking charges. It is difficult to verify that the total fee structure matches your management agreement.

Statements in Every Format

Every short term rental manager sends statements differently. Some use CSV, some PDF, some email summaries. There is no standard format, so you end up building custom spreadsheets for each manager.

How DoorVault helps

PM Statement Processing

Upload your STR manager's monthly statement in any format and DoorVault extracts revenue, expenses, management fees, and owner disbursements automatically. The same AI that handles long term PM statements handles short term ones.

Revenue and Expense Dashboard

Track income and expenses per property with monthly trends. See whether your STR is cash flowing after all management fees, cleaning costs, and platform commissions.

PM Oversight Tools

DoorVault's PM oversight features work for STR managers too. Upload every statement and let Knox flag unusual charges, fee increases, or maintenance spikes compared to previous months.

Document Vault

Store management agreements, insurance policies, local STR permits, and inspection reports alongside your financial data. Every document is linked to its property and searchable.

Multi Property Portfolio View

If you own STRs across multiple markets, DoorVault gives you a single dashboard for all of them. Compare performance across properties and markets without switching between spreadsheets.

Common questions
Does DoorVault integrate with Airbnb or VRBO directly?
DoorVault does not connect to Airbnb or VRBO APIs directly. Instead, it processes the monthly owner statements from your STR property manager. This works with any manager regardless of which platform they list on, and gives you the same oversight as a long term rental investor.
Can DoorVault handle statements from different STR managers?
Yes. DoorVault's AI document processing adapts to different statement formats. Whether your manager sends a PDF, CSV, or formatted email statement, you can upload it and DoorVault will extract the relevant financial data.
How does DoorVault track cleaning fees and platform commissions?
When DoorVault processes a PM statement, it categorizes each line item including cleaning fees, platform commissions, management fees, and maintenance charges. These show up as individual transactions on the property so you can see exactly where the money goes.
Is DoorVault useful if I self manage my STR?
DoorVault is primarily built for investors who have property managers. If you self manage, you can still use DoorVault for document storage, transaction tracking, and portfolio level reporting, but the PM oversight features will not apply to your situation.
Can I track both long term and short term rentals in the same account?
Yes. DoorVault does not distinguish between long term and short term rentals at the platform level. Both property types use the same transaction tracking, document processing, and reporting features.
