RentWerx Property Management

What RentWerx Property Management does

RentWerx Property Management is a privately held, founder-owned residential property management firm operating across the San Antonio and Austin, Texas metropolitan areas, managing 900+ single-family properties under a Portfolio Management model in which dedicated licensed Realtors are assigned to discrete property portfolios. The company, founded by Brad Larsen and operating for 10+ years, was restructured in 2015 to formalize this portfolio-based service delivery. Core services encompass full-service property management (10% of monthly rent on the Traditional plan or $95/month flat on the Multiple Property Owner plan for 4+ doors), supplemented by leasing-only placement ($1,495 flat fee), a Landlord Rescue program for distressed properties ($500 plus eviction costs), and a vacation rental sub-brand (Rodeo Vacation Rentals) serving short-term Airbnb/Booking.com listings.

The underlying technology stack combines a RentVine-based owner/resident portal with third-party integrations including PetScreening.com for animal screening, ShowingTime for showing scheduling, Matterport for 3D virtual tours, MLS/SABOR for listing syndication to Zillow/Trulia/Hot Pads, and Adobe Sign for electronic agreements. In-house content production capabilities include professional video tours with dedicated camera equipment and YouTube-hosted walkthroughs, alongside an in-house photographer producing 20-25 wide-angle stills per listing. The lockbox-based 24/7 self-guided showing system enables property viewings without agent presence.

Revenue mechanics are diversified across percentage-based recurring management fees, per-door flat fees, transactional leasing commissions (50% of first month rent with $600 minimum), $275 lease renewal fees, $100 onboarding fees, and a wide à la carte menu of maintenance services. The customer base spans individual single-family landlords, multi-property investors (4+ doors), vacation rental owners, and real estate agents as referral partners ($777 bonus per converted client). Distribution combines direct-to-consumer digital channels (SEO, social, YouTube), MLS-syndicated listings, and an agent referral network. The company operates with no disclosed institutional funding, parent company, or subsidiary structure, and partnership with SaleWerx (a separate Texas real estate brokerage) provides investor acquisition-to-management funnel integration.

Direct peers

• Evolve Vacation Rental: Vacation rental manager with a lighter-touch model competing for the same short-term rental property owners in Texas markets as RentWerx's Rodeo sub-brand.
• RPM Living: Texas-headquartered residential property management company operating across multiple Texas markets with a similar full-service SFR and multifamily offering, leveraging comparable tech stack and guarantee-driven positioning.
• Real Property Management: National residential property management franchise with similar full-service SFR management plans, percentage-based fees, and tenant screening/owner portal capabilities — directly comparable service model to RentWerx.
• Property Management Inc. (PMI): National franchise network offering residential property management with similar tiered plans, tenant placement fees, and owner reporting — competes for the same SMB landlord segment.
• Vacasa: Largest U.S. vacation rental management company; directly comparable to RentWerx's Rodeo Vacation Rentals sub-brand for full-service short-term rental management including pricing optimization, guest support, and cleaning.

Broad incumbents

• Progress Residential: Large institutional single-family rental owner/operator; competes for SFR tenants in San Antonio/Austin and could acquire individual SFRs that would otherwise have been RentWerx-managed properties.
• Invitation Homes: NYSE-listed institutional SFR owner/operator with a substantial Texas portfolio; competes for both tenants and acquisitions of SFRs that historically fed RentWerx's third-party management funnel.
• Asset Living: One of the largest U.S. property managers (predominantly multifamily but expanding into SFR and Texas); broader portfolio but overlapping target owner/asset segments in Texas growth markets.
• Greystar: Largest global residential property management company with Texas operations; offers overlapping management capabilities to institutional and large SFR/multi-family owners that compete for the same regional talent and tech adoption curve.

Others

• Airbnb Co-Host Network: Platform-enabled short-term rental management alternative that competes for vacation rental owners who might otherwise sign with RentWerx's Rodeo sub-brand, offering lower-cost co-host matching vs. full-service management.
