1220 S Missouri Ave, Clearwater

Your unit is empty most of the year.
The four next to it aren't.

We own and run four condos inside this complex. If you use yours for part of the season and leave it closed up for the rest, we're already here on the days you aren't — with the cleaners, the vendors and the guests.

Ask About Your Unit Why Us, Here

The part-year problem

Most people who buy at the Avalon buy it to use. A few weeks in winter, a couple in spring, family down for a stretch in summer. It's a good reason to own a condo and we're not going to talk you out of it.

The awkward part is the other eight or nine months. The association fees run whether you're here or not. So do the taxes, the insurance, the power bill keeping the humidity down, and the slow depreciation of a place nobody's opened a window in since March. A unit that's closed isn't neutral — it costs money and it deteriorates faster than one being looked after.

Nothing about this has to change how you use it. You block the dates you want, in advance, as many as you like. We fill the rest. If you decide in October that you'd like the place at Christmas, that's a conversation, not a contract dispute.

Why us, in this building specifically

We're already here four times over

Most of what a management company charges you for is the cost of getting to your property. In this complex, we don't have to.

The cleaner is already in the buildingConsecutive turnovers, no drive time, and a team that already knows these layouts because they clean four of them every week.

The vendors already comeOur HVAC, plumbing and electrical people know the complex, the gate and the parking. A call-out for your unit gets bundled with whatever else needs doing.

Somebody walks the buildingAn empty unit that gets checked is a different asset from one that doesn't. We're in this complex most days anyway.

We know the association documentsBecause we're bound by them too, on four units. We're not going to learn your bylaws on your time.

What we'd want to know about your unit first

Before talking about revenue we'd check what your specific unit is permitted to do, exactly as we would for a property anywhere else. Even inside one complex it's worth confirming rather than assuming — permissions attach to parcels and to declarations, not to postcodes, and we'd rather establish it than tell you what you want to hear.

That check is free. If it comes back the way we'd expect, the next question is what your unit would realistically earn in the months you're not using it, against what it costs you to hold. We'd give you that as a number, not a brochure.

Why we always check first Short-term rental rules in Pinellas County → Twenty-five separate rulebooks in one county, and most addresses can't legally take a nightly booking. Yours may well be one of the ones that can.

The awkward question, asked for you

We own four units in the building we'd be managing yours in. So you should ask it directly: when a guest searches your dates, whose unit gets filled first?

Here's how we operate. Every unit we run is priced by the same automated tool, with no manual override in our favour. We don't redirect an enquiry away from your unit toward ours. And you can ask to see occupancy and nightly rates across the whole portfolio, ours included, whenever you want. If you'd like those terms written into your management agreement, ask and we'll put them there.

It's a fair question and it's the first one we'd ask in your position. A manager who won't answer it is telling you something.

How it works

Two ways to do it

Both include listings, pricing, guest communication, compliance and monthly reporting. The difference is who handles what happens on site — and in this building, we're the ones already on site.

No setup fee. No markup on vendor invoices. No booking fee, listing fee or annual charge. The percentage is the whole price. Guests pay the cleaning fee on both plans. Full detail on what management covers →

Neighbours

You can see exactly what we'd do with your unit

Four of them are in this complex, listed publicly, with public reviews. Go and look at the photographs, the descriptions and what guests say, and then decide whether you'd want that for yours. Not many managers can point at the unit two floors down.

Tell us your unit number

We'll come back with what we think it would earn in the months you're not using it, what it would cost you, and whether it's worth doing at all. If the answer is that you're better off leaving it as it is, we'll say that — we live in this building's owner group too, and a bad recommendation would follow us around it.
