About Us
DLP Home & Host was founded on the belief that short-term rentals should be managed with the precision of an operator and the mindset of a hospitality brand.
What began as a shared passion for travel and real estate evolved into a management company built on strategy, systems, and performance. Today, DLP Home & Host partners with property owners to transform homes into professionally positioned, revenue-optimized short-term rental assets.
Our Approach: Your STR is our full-time job
The short-term rental market has matured, and success is no longer just about listing a home. It requires brand positioning, pricing intelligence, operational infrastructure, and compliance awareness.
DLP Home & Host combines creative direction with analytical execution to deliver strategic property positioning, revenue-driven pricing and forecasting, market research, operational systems, elevated guest experience standards, and compliance oversight. Every decision, from design guidance to nightly rate adjustments, is made through a performance lens.
Why DLP Home & Host
We understand all sides of the STR industry. We have a feel for how a space feels, photographs, and performs in the marketplace. And we also understand how it models, scales, and sustains profitability over time. In a competitive market like Austin, professional management is no longer optional. Inventory is growing, regulations are evolving, and guest expectations are rising. Our role is to ensure your property is positioned to compete and outperform.

Put your STR on autopilot
Let us do the work for you! When you work with us, you're not getting a robot, a call center, or a massive commercial team that might overlook the details that matter. You’re getting us personally.
Your property receives our full, undivided attention. We handle every conversation, every guest, every issue, every cleaning, every maintenance fix, and every opportunity with hands-on care. We're available 24/7, because your property doesn’t stop running, and neither do we when it matters.
We treat every home like it's our own and every client like a partner. Our business is built on trust, communication, and true investment in your success. We’re not interested in volume. We’re committed to quality.
If you’re looking for STR management that’s professional, strategic, and truly personal, we’d love to help you grow your property into a high-performing, guest-loved asset.
