How A Hangar With 2 Rental Units In Alaska Generated $5407/mo. In Owner Payouts

Background

Jess is one of our property owners in Alaska who built 2 amazing rental units with her husband in their unique hangar by the river. Located in the heart of North Pole, Alaska, it’s enveloped in nature and perfectily set up for Aurora viewing.

With this property and its wonderful location, we’ve helped them with strategic marketing that’ve made them guest favorites on Airbnb with over 110 5-star reviews!

The hangar includes two units: one designed for two guests with one bedroom and one bathroom, and another for up to four guests with one bedroom, two beds, and one bathroom. This variety has allowed us to diversify bookings and maintain consistently high revenue.

Our Solution

Since Jess is a busy professional in the medical field, she doesn’t have time or energy to handle all of the rental management with her husband. They want to spend their precious spare time enjoying nature, traveling, and visiting friends.

Since she lives nearby and has the opportunity to check in on the propert herself and restock supplies, she was looking for a manager who could help her with the front-end aspects.

Then we tailored a co-hosting setup where we marketed the 2 units to increase the revenue in each season, while coordinating the bookings and guest messaging.

This has been a success for Jess as she’s able to focus on what she want while we’re making this property generate a steady extra income.

✓ Staging & Listing

We advised on staging the property, then arranged a professional photoshoot and wrote listings to attract the right guests.

✓ Marketing & Bookings

We listed the property on major platforms like Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com while syncing the calendar across all channels.

✓ Income Optimization

We track the market’s supply & demand and update your listings to keep your property competitive the entire year.

Using a hybrid short- and mid-term rental model, we match the property with the right guests for each season.

✓ 24/7 Communication

We handle all communication with your guests from check-in details, booking updates, questions and review reminders.

✓ Increased Insurance

We provided insurance that covers any damage caused by a tenant. And if something needs to be fixed, we’ll handle both the claim process and coordinate the repair.

Results & Conclusion

We’ve now worked with Jess over the last 2 years. Ever since we started, she’s been able to completely focus on her work in the medical field and her other duties while this rental has produced a great income for her.

Numbers

Between 2024-07 and 2025-07, her units had an occupancy rate of 72.95% with a total of 534 nights booked.

This made her an average of $5407/mo. in owner payouts.

The biggest contributors to this success is that we marketed the property to match the right pricing and short- vs mid-term bookings for each season and always stayed on top of the communication to keep guests happy.
