Lake of the Ozarks is a top tourist destination in the U.S. with all the miles of shoreline, tasty restaurants, and amazing real estate. And that’s why Vacasa Missouri (“Vacasa”) entered the vacation market here in the spring of 2022.
Vacasa is a premier full-service vacation rental management company in North America. A vast number of homes are used for short-term rentals at the Lake, but managing it all can be overwhelming for homeowners. Vacasa brings the best of both worlds with local managers and a world-class company’s revenue-generating expertise.
“And we do it for a comprehensive fee,” said Flavia Tanasescu, a Regional Marketing Specialist whose area includes Missouri. “That means there’s no nickel-and-diming you for the essentials.”
More than half a million 5-star reviews show guests’ satisfaction with Vacasa. Tanasescu said the company’s local teams are often truly part of the community, like being involved with the Chamber of Commerce or charities. Owners can have the national exposure, marketing, and technology, but also have local 24/7 care and support.
Clinton Dorsey is the Territory Sales Executive for the Lake, as well as a licensed real estate professional with Vacasa Missouri LLC. As the sole sales rep for the company in the area, he works daily to help homeowners find vacation rental success. Dorsey and three other operations employees work with numerous contractors that clean homes and do maintenance work as needed.
Around 92% of Vacasa owners receive more bookings than comparable homes listed in their local market, according to independent third-party data.* The company makes sure renters have a smooth experience from beginning to end.
Onboarding is easy with an online account and app. Smart home technology also levels-up the vacation rental experience. But where will guests find your home? Everywhere they’re looking, like Airbnb, Booking.com, Expedia, and VRBO.
Other services that make Vacasa an industry leader include rate optimization, guest screening, home safety and protection, and up to $1 million in protection through the Accommodation Protection Program for guest damage coverage and more.
“We take out the hassle of managing, and I’ll speak to that as a vacation homeowner listed with Vacasa,” Tanasescu said. “There’s no stress attached to that home. Everything is very transparent and extremely easy. Pictures are uploaded to the homeowner portal so you know exactly what it looks like after it’s cleaned. It’s especially helpful for owners who don’t live in the market or state of the rental.”
“Vacasa has what it takes to make renters’ homes a success,” said Tanasescu. Vacasa employees are dedicated to what they do, and they understand the needs of both guests and homeowners.
“Lake of the Ozarks is a fairly new market for us,” Tanasescu said, adding, “Clinton is extremely passionate and dedicated. He’s one of my favorite people specifically because he loves his job so much.”
