Second Base provides specialized services for homeowners in Bend and Central Oregon who want confidence, clarity, and professional oversight — whether they own a second home or operate a vacation rental. Our services are intentionally focused. We do not offer one-size-fits-all property management. Instead, we provide high-touch care and expert consulting designed around how homes are actually used. Choose the service that best fits your ownership goals.
SECOND HOME MANAGEMENT
Hands-On Oversight for Homes That Sit Vacant

This service focuses on:
Routine, professional inspections
System monitoring and preventative maintenance
Seasonal preparation and planning
Vendor coordination and follow-through
Clear communication and accountability
Second-home management is not about occasional check-ins — it’s about ongoing responsibility for the condition and readiness of your home.
This service is ideal for:
Out-of-state or frequent-travel owners
Homes that sit vacant for extended periods
Owners who want peace of mind and arrival-ready homes
Properties that require knowledgeable, consistent oversight
VACATION RENTAL CONSULTING
Strategic Support for Owners Who Want Better Performance
Vacation Rental Consulting is designed for owners who operate — or plan to operate — short-term rentals and want expert guidance without giving up control of their property.
This service provides:
Setup and launch strategy for new vacation rentals
Listing optimization and visibility guidance
Pricing and revenue optimization
Amenity and guest experience strategy
Operational coaching and 1:1 advisory support
With more than 15 years of hands-on experience managing 30+ vacation rentals, Second Base helps owners make informed decisions that improve performance while protecting the long-term value of the home.
