Creating a rental: short-term, long-term, or hybrid

What each rental type unlocks, and how to set one up under a property.

Short-term, long-term, and hybrid

Short-term rentals are for tourist/vacation stays: they get calendar sync, guest registration, and tourist tax calculation, but no contract or payment ledger. Long-term rentals are leases: they get a contract, tenants, and a payment ledger with escalation tools, but no calendar sync or guest registration. Hybrid rentals combine both — useful for a property you rent short-term part of the year and long-term the rest.

  1. 1From a property, click "Add Rental" and choose the type.
  2. 2Fill in the basics: name/reference, and for long-term/hybrid, the tenant(s) and lease start date.
  3. 3Save — the rental now appears under the property with the tabs relevant to its type (Calendar for short-term, Payments/Contracts for long-term).

You can change a rental's type later, but doing so doesn't retroactively create or remove historical data — for example, switching from short-term to long-term won't generate a payment ledger for past months.
