Property management · Bradenton & Sarasota
Six homes. One local team. Your call gets answered.
Seascape manages a small collection of pool homes in Bradenton and Sarasota. We list, price, host and clean each one, pay you monthly, and tell you what your home earned and what needs attention before you have to ask.
A listing link or an address is enough to start. A sentence on what feels off helps.
What we do for your home
The same five jobs, every week, for every home we manage.
List it on Airbnb, Vrbo and our own booking site
Photos, description, house rules and calendar are kept current on every channel, and your home gets its own page on this site where guests book direct.
Reprice your calendar as demand moves
Your rates are not set once in the spring and left alone. Every home runs on a demand model: nightly rates and minimum stays move with how the season is actually filling, what comparable Gulf Coast homes are holding for the same week, and what we watch booking across our own six homes and our direct site. A single night stranded between two reservations gets priced to sell instead of sitting empty, and a holiday week never goes out at a Tuesday rate. Patrick sets the pricing and walks you through the reasoning whenever you want it.
Screen and message every guest, locally
A person in Bradenton reads the inquiries, screens the bookings and answers the guests. There is no call center.
Coordinate cleaning and maintenance, with photos
Turnovers are scheduled and checked. When a deep clean or a repair is needed you get a note and a photo before you have to ask.
Pay you monthly, with a statement
Each month you receive a statement of what the home earned and what was spent, along with your payout. County taxes are remitted for you.
Why a six-home operator
Attention is the one thing a small company can offer that a large one cannot.
You reach the people who run your home
Sawyer and Patrick answer the phone. There is no account manager between you and the people making decisions about your home. (941) 704-8545, or meet the team.
One of six, not one of six hundred
We keep the collection small on purpose. Six homes is few enough that we know each house, its quirks and its guests.
We tell you before you ask
Revenue, payout, reviews, deep-cleaning and maintenance notes come to you as they happen, not when you chase them.
Pricing
We do not have one fee for every home. After we look at your listing and statement we quote a share of net rent that fits what the home can earn, and we put the basis, the included services and any separate charges in writing.
We also say no. If a house cannot carry its own cleaning, maintenance and service costs, we tell you that in the review instead of signing you and hoping it works out.
How management fees actually work What Airbnb host fees and card processing pay for
The homes we manage
Real homes, real photographs. Every one has its own page on this site.
What comes back in 48 hours
Send the listing link or the address, and a sentence on what feels off. A real Seascape person reads it. Back comes a one-page review of what deserves a second look and what we would check next, usually within 48 hours.
If you send an owner statement too, we go line by line and say what each charge pays for. If we need something else to be useful, we ask rather than guess.
What we look at
- The listing: photos, description, pricing and calendar settings.
- The statement, if you send one: what each line pays for.
- What we would check next, in plain language.

Selected FAQ
What Gulf Coast owners usually ask first.
How do I know if my market can support professional management fees?
Start with the services and fee basis in the agreement, not a generic public percentage. Read the Airbnb host fee and card-processing guide, then request a revenue review if you need a property-specific management quote.
What should a local manager handle that a remote manager usually misses?
The short answer is local response time. Cleaning quality control, maintenance triage, guest screening, and property checks are all weaker when the manager is not operating in-market. The market-specific service pages break down how that changes between Bradenton, Sarasota, and Anna Maria Island.
What should I read before choosing a vacation rental manager?
Start with the page that matches your market, then read the fee reality page, the income breakdown, and the switch-management page if you think the current setup is the real problem.
