Case Study: Patriot Family Homes achieves 2x growth in six months with Guesty

This Patriotic Short-Term Rental Business More Than Doubled in Size in Just Six Months

Patriot Family Homes, a veteran- and military-spouse–led short‑term rental operator founded to serve families moving between duty stations, had grown quickly to multiple markets but was held back by a prior PMS that lacked integrations, reliable channel communications, and robust reporting. Seeking a more scalable property management solution, Patriot Family Homes turned to Guesty to address frequent automation bugs, poor backend connectivity, and the need for stronger analytics and system integrations.

Guesty provided a centralized PMS with Marketplace integrations, a Unified Inbox, and automations that tied into the team’s dynamic pricing and back‑office tools (including Safely and Ximplifi’s Sage Intacct integration). With Guesty, Patriot Family Homes cut listing deployment from several hours to under 30 minutes, added 10–15 listings per month to reach 150+ listings across eight states, drove occupancy above 75%, automated bookkeeping and reporting, and more than doubled in size (and headcount) in six months.
