By The Numbers: 2025
How We Outperform the Market
Los Angeles homes in our care run 76% occupancy while the city average hovers at 45.6%, according to data collected via Airbnb.
Thorough SEO, rapid maintenance, and on-the-ground hospitality teams keep calendars full and owners’ income steady.
Our listings draw almost three times the impressions—153% higher— than comparable homes during May ’24 → Apr ’25, according to data collected through Airbnb.
High-impact photography, A/B-tested headlines, and dynamic pricing tools keep us locked above the fold, reaching travelers before they even start filtering.
Airbnb shows our homes on page 1 of search results 55.7% of the time, weighted across 12 months from April 2024 – April 2025.
That means every other guest search in our price bands starts with an Open Air Homes listing—boosting inquiries and brand awareness for every owner in the portfolio.
Out of every 10,000 search impressions, we convert 18 bookings versus the market’s 11—a 60 % uplift on Airbnb.
This efficiency turns views into paid nights, raises annual revenue, and shields owners from slow seasons when every inquiry counts.
Guests stay 9.7 days with us; the market averages 4.8 days according to “similar listings” in Airbnb Insights. That’s 102% longer than the market average.
Longer stays cut turnover costs, boost review volume, and reduce neighborhood churn, creating a sustainable growth loop.
Short-Term Rentals Are Legal—With a Permit
Stay Compliant While Maximizing Revenue
As part of the City of Los Angeles, Hollywood falls under the Home Sharing Ordinance. This means STRs under 30 days are only allowed in primary residences with a valid permit.
We help homeowners apply for the Home Sharing Permit, understand occupancy limits, and qualify for the Extended Home Sharing Permit after six months of good standing.

1. Are short-term rentals legal in Hollywood?
Yes — but only if the home is your primary residence and registered under the City of LA’s Home Sharing Ordinance. If your property qualifies, you can host short-term stays under 30 days with a Home Sharing Permit. For homes that don’t qualify, we manage fully legal monthly rentals (30+ nights) without needing a permit.

We handle listing creation, guest messaging, pricing strategy, cleanings, maintenance, and leasing — whether for monthly or permitted short-term stays. Our model offers full-service vacation rental management that combines legal compliance with luxury hospitality.
3. Can you also lease my home long-term?
Yes — Open Air Homes is a licensed California brokerage (DRE #02164159) offering monthly, seasonal, and 12-month leases. We list homes on the MLS, screen tenants, and draft leases using CAR forms. Many homeowners alternate between long-term and monthly depending on personal use or travel schedules.

6. How do you tailor your rental strategy for each homeowner?
