Your property, fully handled.

Why Staylax

Everything in-house. Nothing farmed out.

Most managers hire four separate vendors for design, photography, cleaning, and repairs. We own all four. That is why the home that goes live is a home you'd happily stay in yourself.

We furnish the home ourselves

Most managers hand you a shopping list. Furnish4Stay, our own studio, designs the home, buys everything, installs it, and stages it for photos. The team that sets it up is the team that runs it.

Your rate comes from real bookings

We've run short-term rentals across DFW for years. Your nightly price is set against what our own homes actually earn here, not a generic pricing algorithm.

A direct booking site, included

Your home goes live on stay-lax.com, where guests book you directly and skip Airbnb's 15% guest fee. More of every booking stays with you. We proved it first on our own home, Stillwater Retreat on Lake Whitney.

Repairs handled the same day

Bloxx and Fixory are our own maintenance teams. When something breaks, someone is there that day. No waiting for a vendor to call you back next week.

You can see your numbers any time

Log into the owner portal for your calendar, your bookings, and your statements. You always know what's booked and what you've earned.

Restaged every quarter, no charge

Worn rug, dated look, new season? We restyle the home as part of the service, not as an extra. Your listing photos never go stale.

Full-service management

Six steps. One team. No handoffs.

01

Furnish & stage

We design it, buy it, install it, and photograph it. The Furnish4Stay package is included or financed.

02

List & launch

Live on Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, and stay-lax.com, with photos and wording written to get found. A launch push runs from day one.

03

Price it weekly

We adjust your nightly rate every week against our own portfolio, nearby homes, and what's happening in town, right down to the Cowboys home schedule.

04

Run the guest side

We answer guests around the clock, screen and ID-check them, cover damage, issue smart-lock codes, and sell them the extras on our guest site.

05

Clean & maintain

The home is turned within four hours of checkout: cleaned, restocked, fresh linens, and inspected. Fixory is on call for anything that breaks.

06

Report & refresh

A statement every month showing nights booked, your average nightly rate, and what you cleared. Plus a design refresh each season.

What you won't get elsewhere

Five reasons owners choose us.

Empty house to earning in 14 days

Hand us an empty home on a Monday and it is furnished, photographed, and taking reservations inside two weeks. Our buying and design pipeline is built for that speed.

We stand behind our projection

If we miss the revenue projection we gave you two quarters running, you can walk away with no penalty. Our forecast has to mean something.

One named person, not a call center

You get one account manager with a real phone number. Text them or call them directly. No ticket queue, no 1-800 line.

Our guests become your guests

Repeat guests from the homes we already manage get pointed at yours. You launch into demand that already exists instead of starting at zero.

We're operators, not a startup

Caplex Equity, AMP Live Group, Bloxx, and Fixory already run construction, renovation, and property management at scale. Your rental is not our side project.

How onboarding works

From first call to first booking in 30 days or less.

Week 1 · Call & projection

A 20-minute call, a walkthrough in person or over video, and a revenue projection built from real homes near yours.

Week 1–2 · Paperwork & design plan

Sign the management agreement, agree the furnishing budget, and set your launch date.

Week 2–3 · Furnish & photograph

Furnish4Stay installs in 5 to 10 days. Photography and listing copy are finished before week three ends.

Week 3–4 · Live everywhere

Our site, Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com all go live the same day, with an opening promotion to bring in the first reviews fast.

Month 2+ · Tune & report

Pricing adjusted weekly, a statement every month, and a refresh check-in every quarter to keep the listing climbing.

Any time · You can leave

Give 30 days' notice. No long lock-in and no penalty, beyond paying off financed furniture if any is outstanding.

Terms & framework

The shape of our management agreement.

This is the standard shape of the deal. The final terms are set around your property, your market, and how much you want us to run. Treat it as a starting point, not a contract.

Management fee

Tiered by property size, amenities, and how much of the operation you hand over. Request a quote and we’ll show you the starting rate and exactly which features move it — then confirm the final number once we’ve seen the property.

Term

12 months to start, then month to month. After that, 30 days' notice ends it. If we miss our projection, you can leave early.

What's included

Listings on every major booking site, direct bookings on stay-lax.com, weekly pricing, round-the-clock guest messaging, cleaning, restocking, smart locks, monthly reports, and damage claims.

Furnishing

Finance it through Furnish4Stay or pay for it at signing. On most DFW homes it pays for itself in four to six months. The furniture is yours to keep.

What you pay separately

Utilities, HOA dues, insurance, property tax, and large repairs above an agreed limit. Cleaning is charged to the guest, not to you. Furnishing too, if you chose not to finance it.

Insurance & liability

You carry short-term-rental landlord insurance and list us as an additional insured. Every reservation also carries damage cover, through the booking platform and our own deposit.

Staying there yourself

Block your own dates in the owner portal whenever you like. Personal stays are free.

What you get each month

A statement showing nights booked, your average nightly rate, total revenue, costs, and what you cleared. A full performance review every quarter.

Full management agreement provided after the discovery call. This page is a framework — not a binding offer.

Common questions

What owners ask us first.

My property isn't furnished. Do I have to use Furnish4Stay?

No, but most owners do. We've furnished more than 50 rentals, and homes that launch with our packages tend to book faster and charge more per night. If you'd rather use your own furniture, we'll walk the home and tell you honestly what works and what doesn't.

What's the minimum property to make sense for STR?

In DFW, a tidy two-bedroom in a good neighborhood with off-street parking can work. We do best with three- to six-bedroom family homes, lake houses, and well-designed one-bedroom lofts. Anything smaller and we'll tell you straight whether the numbers add up.

Do you handle properties outside DFW?

Yes. We already operate at Lake Whitney in Clifton and Lake Ray Hubbard in Garland and Rowlett, and we'll look at lake or cabin properties within about two hours of Dallas. Further out, we'll point you to someone we trust.

What about HOA & short-term rental restrictions?

We check the HOA rules and city ordinances during onboarding. If you're still deciding whether to buy, we can run that check before you close as part of our pre-offer review.

How quickly can I exit if it's not working?

After the first 12 months, give us 30 days in writing. And if we badly miss our own revenue projection two quarters in a row, you can leave during that first year with no penalty. You'd only settle any furniture we financed.

Free, comp-based

Request a management quote

Tell us about the property. Within 24 hours you’ll get a realistic monthly revenue range based on our comps in your market, plus the exact management rate for your home — no obligation.

Amenities raise nightly rate, and they raise the turn and maintenance load too. Both go into your quote.

Management starts at 15% of booking revenue for a standard home. Properties with a pool, game room, cinema, or outdoor kitchen carry an add-on for the extra turn and upkeep — your quote spells out the exact number and what drives it.

We reply within 24 hours, Mon–Fri.

Prefer to talk?

No sales pressure. Just a working conversation about your property and what we'd do with it.
