Glad for Direct Booking

My questions are:

• What benefits do you see OwnerRez for a Host such as myself? I’m not sure of any benefit to me of the base service except for the legal agreement capability, which I think I could also do on my own with DocuSign for $10/month.
  - it is all integrated and automatic… once set up properly
  - you control your own cc processing with vrbo, thus avoiding them handling a chargeback
  - you can take a Security Deposit, or a SD hold, even with Airbnb, so you don’t rely upon them to decide to withhold money
  - One api connected, it will push your calender and rates out to vrbo and airbnb and a other listing sites ( not flipkey / tripadvisor ).
  - Communication with guest is all automated with templates and replies
  - You set your own cancel terms with vrbo, including a penalty if you want
  - You decide when a guest needs to be canceled or to be refunded with vrbo

SO, with OwnerRez you could have a site for direct bookings and set your own cancellation penalties, I am reading from above. That way, the bookings don’t become too casual.

Just an idea.
