In this episode of Slick Talk, Wil Slickers talks with industry expert Simon Lehmann live from VRMA. They discuss the critical need for professionalization in the short-term rental industry amidst economic challenges and regulatory impacts.

The episode emphasizes the necessity of standards and accreditation akin to a 'driver’s license' for property managers, highlighting technological advancements, reliable guest experiences, and the fragmented state of the industry.

The conversation underscores the importance of professional training and 24/7 availability for hosts and tackles inefficiencies in models like VRMAs. Tune in to understand how property managers can navigate regulatory pressures, capture more revenue, and thrive in the evolving market landscape.
