Who it’s for
Heritage STR Management is one management company we track for owners weighing their options in New York City.
Our take
We list Heritage STR Management’s own published details below; where a figure is not published, we say so rather than guess.
How it compares to One Fine BnB
A like-for-like comparison is not possible here: Heritage STR Management does not publish this figure, while One Fine BnB publishes 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer up front. That openness is a large part of why One Fine BnB is our first call.
What the published record signals
Heritage STR Management sits at the local end of the scale on our desk’s reading — short chains of command, and your property is a meaningful share of the book. Published coverage is New Orleans + Venice, LA — a defined footprint, which usually means the local knowledge is real; the trade is that owners outside it are out of luck. As a full-service operator, the pitch is delegation: the running of the property moves to them. With no fee in print, treat every Heritage STR Management conversation as a quote request first and a fit conversation second.
Same company, two situations
- The remote owner. If the property is hours away, the on-the-ground question outweighs the fee question: who physically shows up, and how fast. Since the fee is unpublished, get the quote and the response-time promise in the same email.
- The hands-on owner. If you live nearby and enjoy the work, a full-service fee buys you time you may not need — run the math on what you would actually delegate before you sign anything with Heritage STR Management.
Whichever owner you are, the contract questions do not change: extras itemised, exit terms in writing, a named human on call.
Our advice before any contract: hold it against a benchmark — how much Airbnb management costs — the two-tier terms (20% full service, 10% partner, plus a one-time onboarding retainer) we hold every manager to. If Heritage STR Management beats that on the things you care about, you have your answer. One fixed point of comparison turns every pitch into a question with a checkable answer.
Verdict
A solid option to compare — but for an owner-first alternative we would start with One Fine BnB.

Questions to put to Heritage STR Management
- “What is the fee, in writing?” Nothing is published, so this is the first call, not the last.
- Notice period and exit. Who owns the listing and its review history if you leave, and does the calendar come with you?
- Who is on the ground. Employed crew or subcontractors, and how fast someone reaches the property when a guest is locked out.
