Return On Enjoyment

YOUR MOUNTAIN HOME CAN YIELD MORE THAN MEMORIES
OUR HOME IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA, whether it’s a primary or
secondary residence, has given you plenty of pleasure. You’ve watched the
sun come up over a fog-shrouded ridge; you’ve been surprised by a flock
of wild turkeys crossing your hiking trail; you’ve enjoyed fabulous meals
“Coziest
Cities in
America”
in farm-to-table restaurants and filled rooms with art from local galleries. Although you must
often wish you could spend more time there, the benefits of your mountain home have been
numerous. If you could share those benefits—the comforts, the beauty, the culture—with
someone else, and be financially compensated as well, the ownership rewards would be multiplied.
“America’s
Smartest
Cities”
(And if you’re contemplating a mountain home investment,
these benefits will only make that investment more attractive.)
No region in the country is as well-situated to maximize a luxury vacation rental

Best Cities”
investment. With aggressive promotion, massive hospitality infrastructure spending and
record-shattering visitation numbers, western North Carolina is a national magnet for
active, affluent, sophisticated travellers. Just the sort of people who would find your home
an attractive lodging alternative.
“Friendliest
Cities
in the U.S.”

If the prospect of utilizing your home as a luxury vacation rental is attractive, but the
details seem complicated and time-consuming, Yonder is here to make the entire process
effortless and rewarding. As licensed real estate brokers, experienced property managers,
and long-time Asheville residents, we know the area, know how to manage a vacation
rental home, and know how to maximize occupancy so your investment goals are met or
exceeded.
Yonder is the area’s only firm managing exclusively luxury vacation rentals, and we are very
rigorous in choosing which properties we will represent. And this is not a side business;
We’ve been doing it since 2008, and we gross over $1 million in rental income annually.
Although we are a fully licensed real estate firm, this is all we do—luxury vacation rentals.
As in any high-end hospitality business, we know that success comes from making guests
feel respected, appreciated and pampered, and that nothing is more important than
attention to detail and the guest experience. In addition to full-time concierge access,

INCOME Our focus will be to look after your home, drive occupancy and increase your
revenue stream.
CHECKLIST Early in our relationship we will develop a comprehensive checklist that
covers all physical aspects of your home and its operations. This list will include location,
service providers, contractors and utilities. We identify key systems in the house like HVAC
equipment, electrical outlets and breaker panels, plumbing and septic systems, pressure
valves, smoke detector locations etc. We’re thorough and diligent, so your experience will be
trouble-free.
BOOKING We are an industry leader in guest inquiry management. Seven days a week,
from 7am until 9pm we personally answer all inquiries within 30 minutes of contact, and
have two levels of follow-up for every inquiry, and four levels of follow-up for every
booking, connecting with the potential guest in a meaningful and intentional manner.

We provide guests with detailed instructions on all aspects of getting to the home and
enjoying their stay. If guests have questions or issues during their stay, we are always available.
CONCIERGE SERVICES The Yonder guest experience is arguably the most valuable
asset we posess. To enhance that experience a premium concierge service is available to all of
our guests to assist them with anything from day-to-day errands, grocery shopping, restaurant
and entertainment reservations, invitation design and distribution, travel arrangements and
more. Our concierge team prides itself on exemplary service and a deep knowledge of this
area, offering one more resource to make a vacation based in your home the best it can be.
HOUSEKEEPING A clean home is of utmost importance to us, and a way to
differentiate a Yonder home from other providers. Our cleaning standards and protocols
“YONDER PROVIDES A
VERY PROFESSIONAL
SERVICE for managing
vacation rentals. The staff is
very attentive, they are quick to
address issues and always
make sure everything is just
right at my rental. This attention
to quality makes my home
attractive to renters, with lots of
good feedback and return
guests. Renting my home with
Yonder has been a carefree,
profitable and positive
experience.”

guarantee that guests begin their stay in a pristeen environment. We use the services of an
environmentally conscious green cleaning team who take tremendous pride in their work.
OUR PROMISE No other firm can offer the same level of exclusivity, integrity,
imagination, diligence and attention to detail that Yonder will give you. And no other firm
will be as effective in maximizing the financial potential in your property. You’ve worked
hard to be rewarded with ownership of a beautiful mountain home. Now is the time to
consider having that home work for you, and in so doing, sharing that beauty with others.

Bankable Benefits
1. EXCEPTIONAL INCOME STREAM Since Yonder’s beginning in 2008, our data
demonstrates a strong history of exceptional revenue for its owners. We would be happy to
provide you with a personal pro-forma and a 5-year projection based on the specific
characteristics of your home, along with those of comparable homes.
2. GUARANTEED ANNUAL INCOME Prior to contracting to represent your home,
we will complete a comprehensive market analysis and evaluation of your property, then sit
down with you and discuss it in detail. Based on all the existing variables, we will provide
you with a reasonable guaranteed annual income amount.
3. SUSTAINABLE, GROWTH-DRIVEN INVESTMENT Asheville’s national media
attention as a top destination is reflected in the financial success Yonder homeowners have
enjoyed by being a part of the only luxury vacation brand in this region. We ensure that
your investment here is sustainable and meets your goals.
4. SECOND-HOME CARRYING COSTS One of the key benefits of having Yonder
manage and market your second home and/or investment property as a vacation rental is
that the carrying costs of having that home are dramatically reduced, or, most likely,
completely eliminated. Our goal in all home categories is to see that they become lucrative
investments.

5. ENABLES EARLIER PURCHASE OF SECOND HOME A broad range of issues
can delay a second home purchase. The Yonder vacation rental program, and the associated
income stream, relieves financial burdens and allows for a faster purchase of a second home.
6. IT’S STILL YOUR HOME Your home is available for you whenever you wish. Just
let us know when you would like to enjoy it and we will block out the calendar and have
it thoroughly cleaned and ready, as if you were a guest.
7. APPRECIATING CAPITAL ASSET Asheville and the surrounding communities
have demonstrated a healthy environment for real estate and continue to outpace much of the
country. In this favorable market, your investment in a mountain vacation rental will continue
to appreciate as a capital asset and deliver generous financial rewards for many years to come.
8. REDUCING COST OF EVENTUAL RETIREMENT HOME Without your
monthly carrying costs, the income stream from your vacation rental will significantly
reduce your retirement home costs, and in some cases completely eliminate them.
9. PEACE OF MIND You can relax knowing your home is being maintained and looked
after all the time. Before we even start renting your home, we define exactly how Yonder will
manage your property. We look after your home as if it were our own. If there’s a problem,
we take care of it. We believe in total transparency so there will be no surprises. On the 10th
of every month, Yonder will provide a full report and distribute all rental income for that
reporting period. This monthly report, along with all other updates, will include any actions
taken, issues discovered, and items addressed at your vacation rental home, on your behalf.

HOW DOES THIS
WHOLE THING
WORK?
HOW MUCH DOES
IT COST TO GET
STARTED, AND HOW
MUCH CAN I MAKE?
DO I NEED TO
WORRY ABOUT
DAMAGES AND
THEFT?
HOW WILL YOU
PROTECT MY
PRIVACY?
It’s really quite simple. You are
contracting with Yonder to
manage your home and rent it
to approved guests. We handle
everything, working to keep
your home at the highest
possible level of
occupancy—and highest
possible income stream for
you—while cleaning and
maintaining it to the highest
standards, and reporting
regularly and thoroughly to
you. All you have to do is cash
the checks.
If your home is in great
condition and is market-ready,
initial costs are approximately
$1500 to get your listing up
and ready. How much you
make depends on a wide
variety of factors, including
location, amenities (like a hot
tub, a pool, etc.), views,
and—most important—size.
Obviously, the larger your
home, the more guests it can
accommodate, meaning higher
rental rates.
Absolutely not. Our guests are
carefully screened and are
paying a premium price to
stay in a luxury rental. Guests
are required to provide a
deposit secured with a major
credit card, and have the
option to take out vacation
rental damage insurance. Our
contracts with guests hold
them wholly responsible for
any damage or theft without
financial limitations. And we
carefully inspect every home
following a guest stay. Finally,
you should know that Yonder
has been handling vacation
rentals since 2008 and we have
never had a single issue with
significant damage.
Unlike the MLS service, our
listings do not include any
physical addresses. We never
give out addresses to anyone
except guests, and then only
when they have paid. (Their
funds are non-refundable.) We
carefully monitor all
correspondence and are
trained to spot scams. We
never send money to guests or
provide any information or
access to your financial or
personal information.

WHAT ABOUT
CLEANING
SERVICES AND
FEES?
WHO PAYS THE
TAXES FOR
RENTALS?
HOW DO YOU
COMMUNICATE
WITH ME?
DO YOU HANDLE
CONVENTIONAL
PROPERTY
MANAGEMENT?
We have a strategic
contractual agreement with a
highly reputable independent
cleaning company
incorporated with the State of
North Carolina. They are
trained and certified with the
state for various accreditations
with the Health Department
and other high-level protocols.
With every individual Yonder
home, we work cooperatively
with their team to set a static,
set cleaning fee for that
specific property. This fee has
no effect on your rental
income.
Like the cleaning fees, taxes
are wholly the responsibility
of the guest. Yonder handles
collection and payment to the
State, County, and/or City for
all guest stay taxes. You, the
owner, are not responsible for
paying, collecting, or
accounting for these taxes.
This is a part of Yonder’s
fiduciary responsibility as
licensed real estate brokers.
Strong and effective
communication is one of the
major hallmarks of Yonder.
Every month you will receive
a variety of scheduled
communications from us,
specifically designed to keep
you informed, while not
overloading you with
information. These include a
monthly marketing report,
property management update,
and of course a monthly
statement detailing guest stays
and income information.
Beyond that, we are aware that
every owner expects different
levels of communication, and
we will customize our
reporting to you in whatever
form you desire.
We certainly do. When we
need to step into the role of
property managers to address
particular issues with your
home, we simply do just that.
As licensed contractors, we
will give you very specific
information, and very detailed
estimates. From that point we
will act only on your
go-ahead, and with whatever
authority you have approved.
