OwnerRez is the most-loved tool among long-time hosts for a reason — it's deep, flexible, and famously well-supported. But the back office doesn't book the nights.
You chose OwnerRez because you wanted control and clean books. It rewards that. Where it goes quiet is the front of the funnel: brand, traffic, and the marketing that turns a great operation into a full one. Cavmir owns that side, as an extension of your team.
Where OwnerRez fits
From our PMS directory — what OwnerRez does best, and where the marketing gap sits.
OwnerRez
The owner-operator favorite — deep, flexible, and famously well-supported.
- Powerful template + automation engine
- QuickBooks-grade owner statements
- Direct-booking site + payments
- Engaged community + active dev team
Cavmir take: A steeper learning curve, but the most-loved tool among long-time hosts. Best-in-class back office — and no marketing engine, by design.
Where OwnerRez ends and Cavmir begins
OwnerRez is a powerhouse where it matters to owner-operators: a deep automation and template engine, QuickBooks-grade owner statements, a direct-booking site with payments, and support that hosts genuinely rave about. If control and clean accounting are what you want, nothing beats it.
None of that creates demand. OwnerRez will happily take a direct booking — it just won't go find you the guest. There's no SEO engine, no paid-media program, no brand studio, no owner-acquisition funnel inside a PMS, and there shouldn't be. That's a different discipline.
Cavmir is that discipline, done for you. We build the brand and run the traffic that feeds your OwnerRez direct-booking site and payments — while you keep the control and the books exactly as OwnerRez gives them to you.
Why OwnerRez operators hire Cavmir
The reasons are consistent among OwnerRez owner-operators.
The direct-booking site is a ghost town
OwnerRez gives you a real booking site and payments — and no visitors. Without SEO and paid traffic behind it, it converts only the guests you already had. We give it an audience.
You're too OTA-dependent for comfort
Most owner-operators sit heavily on Airbnb and Vrbo. Every night booked there costs 15–22% in commission. Shifting even a slice to direct — through the OwnerRez engine you already pay for — is found margin.
You run the business alone
OwnerRez lets one person run a tight operation. It doesn't add a marketer. Cavmir is the marketing team you don't have headcount to hire, at less than the cost of one.
The brand is an afterthought
Deep back office, thin brand. When a guest or an owner compares you, there's little that makes you memorable. We build the brand that earns the repeat and the referral.
How Cavmir works alongside OwnerRez
We feed the OwnerRez booking engine, we don't replace it. Your OwnerRez site, rules, and payments stay the source of truth. We build the brand and the traffic that make it convert.
We never touch your owner accounting. The QuickBooks-grade statements and owner reporting are OwnerRez's job and yours. Cavmir stays on the demand side — brand, SEO, paid media, content, email.
We respect the control you chose. OwnerRez operators like to own their setup. We work with it — connecting to your existing booking flow rather than forcing a migration.
Flat retainer, no commission. OwnerRez charges per property; we charge a flat retainer tiered to your portfolio. No revenue share, no per-booking fee.

Direct bookings through the OwnerRez engine you already pay for
The OwnerRez booking site and payments are already built — they're just starved of traffic. We supply it: destination-plus-property-type SEO, past-guest email, brand, and retargeting that recaptures guests who found you on an OTA. Every night you move to direct keeps the 15–22% OTA commission, at no extra software cost.
Owner acquisition, if you manage for others
Many OwnerRez users manage a handful of doors for other owners. If that's you, adding doors is the fastest growth you have — and it's a B2B marketing motion OwnerRez can't run. We build the owner landing page, the targeted paid media, and the ROI content that brings qualified owners to your door.
OwnerRez operators ask us these
What long-time hosts want to know first.
Will you make me leave OwnerRez?
Never. OwnerRez is one of the best tools in the category and its owner accounting is hard to beat. We work on top of it — connecting to your existing OwnerRez booking site and payments, and owning the marketing around them.
Can you drive traffic to my OwnerRez direct-booking site?
That's the core of it. We build the brand, SEO, paid media, email, and retargeting that send qualified guests to the OwnerRez booking engine you already run, so more nights book direct.
Do you touch my owner statements or accounting?
No. Owner accounting stays entirely in OwnerRez. Cavmir stays on the demand side — brand, marketing, direct bookings, and owner acquisition.
Do you take a cut of bookings?
No. Flat monthly retainer, tiered to the size of your portfolio. No revenue share, no per-booking fees, no cut of owner commissions. Your booking revenue is yours.
I'm a small owner-operator. Is that too small?
Our Foundation program is built for 5–25 doors, which fits most OwnerRez operators. If you run 1–4 units, our individual-host packages may fit better — request a quote and we'll point you to the right one.
How fast do results show?
Listing and distribution work shows in 30–60 days; the direct-booking traffic engine compounds over 90–180 days. We report weekly on direct-booking share, not vanity metrics.
