There’s never been a better time to earn rental income from your bach so we’ve created this short list of good reasons to put your holiday home on the short-term holiday rental market.
The pandemic has interrupted and impacted our lives in many ways, and that includes influencing ideas on how we want to holiday.
New travel trends include a heightened desire to both retreat from the stresses of daily life and to reconnect in a meaningful way with family and friends. Private stays rather than traditional accommodation options are also increasingly popular.
Holidaying together in a house or a bach is often the best solution, whether it’s for a romantic break for two or for groups of friends and multi-gen family holidays.
Domestic holidays are in favour (for obvious reasons) and Bachcare bookings are confirming that. While the pandemic has curtailed international travel opportunities, it’s also driving consumer desire for holidays exploring our own amazing backyard.
With international tourism on the down low for the meantime there’s a huge vacuum to fill replacing the 3 million overseas trips that Kiwis took in 2019 with domestic holidays.
Bach owners who have switched from a long-term rental arrangement to short-term rentals with Bachcare cite the financial and lifestyle advantages of having their property in the care of a managed service provider.
For starters, there is the flexibility of being able to reserve your place for your own holiday time plus, with the benefit of Bachcare’s management services, it will always be clean and welcoming for you.
Managing a long-term rental at long distance can be problematic, costly and time-consuming. With Bachcare, your holiday home will benefit from regular cleaning, upkeep checks and income, all with minimal effort on your part.
Bachcare owners earn $30,000 on average per year for a 3-bedroom home so it’s well worth considering that, subject to availability, managed short-term rentals can achieve a similar revenue return to a long-term arrangement or, better still, maximise your financial return.

The combination of increasing awareness and high growth of Bachcare, and other holiday rental sites such as Bookabach, Holiday Houses and Airbnb, offers significant opportunities to maximise exposure and the occupancy rate of your property.
List with Bachcare, and we can then list and manage your property across all the above websites (and more) to maximise your visibility and revenue, saving you a lot of extra hassle.
