The difference between net and gross billing matters. On a $1,000 booking with a $150 cleaning fee, we charge 18% of the $850 payout ($153). A competitor charging 18% of gross takes $180. Over 50 bookings per year, that is over $1,350 in your pocket versus theirs.

Pricing FAQs

Common questions about our fees and billing.

How much are Airbnb management fees in Toronto?

Nurture charges a flat 18% of your host payout for full-service Toronto Airbnb management. Most other Toronto companies charge between 20% and 30%, so our rate sits below the local average. We only take a percentage of what you actually receive from Airbnb after platform fees and cleaning charges, not gross bookings.

Nurture charges 18% of host payout, which is below the Toronto market average. For comparison, most local managers fall between 20% and 25%, and premium managers charge 25% to 30%. Our 18% rate reflects lean, locally-owned operations and savings passed back to property owners.

Do Toronto Airbnb managers charge on gross or net income?

It varies, and this is where hidden costs hide. Some companies charge a percentage of gross bookings (including cleaning fees and Airbnb service charges). Others charge on net host payout only. Nurture charges 18% on host payout only, never on cleaning fees or platform charges. Always ask potential managers to clarify the billing basis before signing.

Are there any hidden fees with Nurture?

No. The only fee is the 18% management commission. No setup fees, no onboarding fees, no markup on supplies, no minimum monthly charges, no cancellation fees. If you want to add professional photography, we coordinate that as a one-time pass-through cost (no markup).

Will I make more with short-term rental vs long-term rental?

We have never had any clients make less with short and mid-term rental vs long-term rental. Most see 30-100% increases in monthly revenue.

How long does it take to get my property listed?

The entire process of staging, professional photos, creating your listing, and onboarding takes less than a week on average. The average client sees their first booking within 1 week of getting their listing up.

Do I have to sign a lengthy contract?

No. Our service agreement allows you to cancel with just 30-day notice. No long-term contracts, no cancellation fees, no listing lock-in.

Are there any startup costs?

No. We only get paid on commission. We make money when you make money.

Who owns the listing on Airbnb?

You own the listing. If for some reason you decide to part ways, the listing is yours. We do not gatekeep anything, unlike some competitors who hold listings hostage when clients try to leave.

Why are Nurture fees lower than competitors?

Three reasons. First, we are locally owned and operated so we do not have corporate overhead. Second, we do not spend heavily on paid advertising or sales teams. Third, we believe lower fees plus better service creates long-term client relationships. Most of our new clients come from referrals, not ads.
