Frequently Asked Questions

What is your cancellation policy on your vacation rental properties?

To protect both guests and property owners, our cancellation policy has been designed to be straightforward and transparent:

• Cancellations made 30+ days before check-in: Eligible for a full refund, minus a $25 cancellation processing fee.
• Cancellations made 8–29 days before check-in: 25% of the total booking (your deposit) is forfeited.
• Cancellations made 7 days or less before check-in: The entire booking amount is non-refundable.

These terms apply to all vacation rental properties we manage, including those outside of Tennessee. While we understand that plans can change unexpectedly, this policy allows us to maintain consistent availability and service quality. If you have questions or concerns, our customer care team is happy to assist. For inspiration on where to stay next, browse our premium Tennessee vacation rentals.

What is vacation rental property management and/or Airbnb management, and what are the benefits of working with you rather than other property managers?

Vacation rental and Airbnb property management is the professional oversight of short-term rental properties, focused on transforming them into consistently high-performing, guest-ready investments. This includes creating optimized listings across major booking platforms, setting dynamic pricing strategies based on market analytics, managing calendars and availability, handling all guest communications, coordinating premium turnovers, restocking supplies, and providing 24/7 on-call support. It also includes compliance with local regulations, damage mitigation, and owner reporting — all critical components that protect your asset and maximize income.

What differentiates us is our obsessive attention to detail and performance. Our data-backed pricing models adjust in real-time, our listings are professionally written and staged, and our internal processes are designed to create both operational efficiency and unforgettable guest stays. Our clients trust us to manage not just the logistics, but the brand of their home — ensuring long-term reputation, repeat bookings, and strong year-round returns.

Why should I invest in short term rentals in Pegram, Tenessee?

Pegram, Tennessee, is a town in Cheatham County, located just 20 miles west of Nashville along U.S. Route 70 and near Interstate 40, offering easy access to the metropolitan area while maintaining a peaceful, small-town atmosphere. Its proximity to the Harpeth River and Harpeth River State Park makes it appealing to nature lovers seeking hiking, kayaking, and scenic retreats. Pegram’s position along a major travel corridor, combined with limited hotel presence in the immediate area, creates strong potential for short-term rental investment targeting both outdoor enthusiasts and Nashville-area visitors looking for quieter lodging alternatives.

In addition to outdoor recreation, Pegram benefits from the broader growth of the Nashville metropolitan area, drawing tourists and temporary residents who want proximity to city amenities without urban congestion. The town also participates in local cultural life, with events like the annual Pegram Independence Day Celebration, which attracts regional visitors. Nearby destinations such as Bellevue, Kingston Springs, and Cheekwood Estate and Gardens further enhance its tourism profile. For investors, Pegram offers a low-barrier entry into Middle Tennessee’s booming short-term rental market, with potential for steady income driven by both leisure travel and Nashville’s expanding economic influence.

How do you screen potential guests?

At Home Team Luxury Rentals, guest screening is a critical part of our risk management strategy. We verify each guest’s identity, assess their rental history and reviews on booking platforms, and apply our internal responsible renting standards before any reservation is approved.

This detailed process helps us prevent property misuse, reduce risk, and ensure that every guest aligns with our expectations for respectful and responsible behavior. The result is a more consistent, secure rental environment that protects both your property and the guest experience, supporting the long-term value of your investment.

How do you handle property maintenance and repairs and maintain guest satisfaction?

Regular maintenance is a fundamental aspect of our property management strategy. We prioritize proactive care and routine inspections to safeguard the long-term value of each home. Our team conducts scheduled assessments of both interior and exterior spaces, addressing potential concerns before they evolve into major repairs.

We also perform regular system checks—covering HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and structural components—to ensure optimal performance throughout the year. In the event of guest-reported issues, our rapid-response protocol enables us to resolve problems swiftly, maintaining a seamless guest experience.

Our vetted network of licensed contractors handles everything from emergency repairs to seasonal services like landscaping and weatherproofing. By focusing on preventative maintenance and fast action, we help owners reduce long-term costs, preserve property value, and meet guest expectations with consistency.

How do you maximize occupancy and returns on Airbnb and vacation rental properties?

We maximize occupancy and returns through a strategic blend of data, technology, and hospitality. Our team starts by creating a professionally optimized listing that highlights the property’s key features, aligns with guest search behavior, and performs well across top booking platforms like Airbnb, VRBO, and Expedia. We then implement dynamic pricing that adjusts rates in real time based on demand, seasonality, local events, competitor activity, and booking trends.

Beyond pricing, we monitor travel patterns and platform performance to make informed decisions that increase booking velocity. Our multi-channel marketing ensures broad exposure while our high standards for guest communication, cleaning, and property presentation lead to five-star reviews and higher conversion rates.

Every step of the guest journey is managed for consistency and quality — from screening and booking to check-in and post-stay follow-up. This not only drives repeat bookings but also strengthens listing rankings and guest trust. Our proactive, performance-focused approach gives homeowners reliable income and long-term property value without the stress of day-to-day management.
