Inglewood Airbnb Management
Monthly and Event Stays Near SoFi Stadium
Inglewood Airbnb management by Open Air Homes covers two kinds of homes: monthly rentals that book steadily all year, and owner occupied homes rented during the big events at SoFi Stadium, the Kia Forum, and Intuit Dome.
Inglewood is one of the more affordable ways to stay in Los Angeles. We host many international travelers here whose currency does not stretch as far on the Westside, along with visitors who want to walk to a game or a show.
Open Air Homes is the only Los Angeles based company in AirDNA’s 2026 ranking of the top 100 property managers in the US, ranked #25 nationally with a 4.91 average guest rating. See how the ranking works.
As of September 2026, Open Air Homes manages 70 homes across Los Angeles, including Inglewood, and more than 100 homes overall.
By The Numbers: 2025 In Review
How We Stack Up Against the Market
Updated every January. We publish the full prior year for our portfolio against the market, month by month, including the weak months. The 2025 figures below will be replaced with 2026 results in January 2027.
Our Los Angeles portfolio booked 70.1% of available nights in 2025, compared to 44% among similar listings within Airbnb. In the most competitive short-term rental market in California, this performance reflects disciplined pricing, review velocity, and consistent operational execution.
Dynamic pricing, pet-friendly positioning, and a focus on longer stays help us extract more value from each calendar while protecting peak-season rates and guest quality.
Our listings averaged 120% more page views than comparable homes during Jan ’25 → Jan ’26, 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.
Our listings appeared on page one 56.5% of the time in 2025, compared to 26% for similar listings on Airbnb.
This consistent placement reflects pricing discipline, photography quality, and review velocity across our portfolio.
Our listings converted at 0.30% in 2025, compared to 0.16% for similar listings on Airbnb. That gap represents an 88% conversion advantage, up from 60% in 2024.
Higher conversion means more bookings from the same traffic, translating directly into higher occupancy and net revenue.
Our guests stayed an average of 10.9 days in 2025, compared to 5.5 days for similar listings on Airbnb.
This nearly 2x advantage reflects intentional design, pricing strategy, and a belief that longer stays are the future of short-term rentals.
Why Inglewood Is One of the Hottest Rental Markets in LA
Three Major Venues Within Walking Distance
No other neighborhood in Los Angeles has this concentration of venues. SoFi Stadium hosts the Rams, the Chargers, and the largest events in the country. The Kia Forum is one of the busiest concert venues in the world, and Intuit Dome is home to the Clippers.
The 2026 World Cup brought eight matches to SoFi this summer and was a solid tournament for our homes. Super Bowl LXI arrives in February 2027, and the 2028 Olympics will use SoFi for ceremonies and events.
How Unhosted Stays Work in Inglewood
90 Nights a Year Without Being Home
Inglewood issues short-term rental permits only to owners who have lived in the home as their primary residence for the prior year. Hosted stays, where you are home, have no annual cap. Unhosted stays, where the guest has the whole home, are capped at 90 nights per year.
Ninety nights covers the event weekends that matter. Owners who travel during those windows let the home earn while they are gone.
How We Prepare Your Home for Guests
We Handle the Transition So You Do Not Have To
When you are ready to travel or rent during an event, we help you secure personal items, then send a professional cleaning team through to prepare the home for guests. Photography, listing copy, smart locks, and supplies are handled.
When the rental period ends, we reverse the process. The home is cleaned, restocked, and returned to you as you left it.
What If Your Home Does Not Qualify for STRs
Monthly Rentals Are Fully Allowed With No Night Limit
Most homes in Inglewood do not qualify for a short-term permit, and that is where most of our business here is. Monthly stays of 30 nights or more need no permit and no night cap, and they do well: visiting families, medical staff, airline crews, and people relocating to the South Bay.
Every monthly stay runs on a CAR lease prepared by our licensed brokerage.
Transparent Pricing for Inglewood Homeowners
No Hidden Fees and No Markups on Maintenance
Every home pays a flat 20% commission on the accommodation fare.A $125 monthly platform fee covers software, guest messaging, pricing tools, and the booking engine. No onboarding fees and no vendor markups. See our full pricing breakdown.
As a licensed brokerage (DRE #02164159), we protect your interests and keep every stay compliant. We have hosted on Airbnb since 2012 and hold Superhost status with a 4.89 rating.
Inglewood Airbnb Management Built for Major Events
World Cup Behind Us, Super Bowl and Olympics Ahead
The World Cup showed what event demand looks like here, and it also showed that Southern California is vast. Visitors spread across the region, and pricing came down to supply and demand.
For Super Bowl LXI and the 2028 Olympics we plan the same way: honest pricing, calendars opened early, and the rest of the year carried by monthly stays rather than a handful of big weekends. Read our 2028 Olympics guide.
