What LiveRez does
LiveRez is a cloud-based vacation rental management software platform serving SMB property managers across the United States. Founded in 2009 and headquartered in Boise, the company operates as a brand within inhabit, a strategic operating company aggregating vacation rental software businesses. LiveRez sells an all-in-one platform that consolidates trust accounting, reservation management, CRM and lead management, channel distribution, operations management, e-signature, owner portal, multi-property trip booking, iCal synchronization, and an API for third-party integrations, with conversion-optimized website design bundled into the subscription.
The platform's channel manager connects managed properties directly to major OTAs including Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Google, and HomeToGo, with NextPax serving as a core integration partner for distribution automation. LiveRez generates revenue through subscription fees on a quote-based pricing model with no public pricing disclosure, and operates a community-led go-to-market motion that emphasizes implementation support, online training courses, a knowledge base, tech support, and a peer network, supplemented by an annual user conference and the Rise & Shine educational series.
The company is mid-transition: it launched Ignite, a major software upgrade for existing customers, in June 2025 and has announced migration of the LiveRez product line to a next-generation platform called Streamline under the inhabit umbrella. Headcount is in the 11-50 range, and there is no disclosed revenue, no disclosed funding history, and no AI/ML capabilities are described in available source material. The combined package is positioned for property managers seeking to replace multiple discrete point solutions with a single vertically integrated system backed by an ongoing support community.
