So Fernwood Circle Property Management is officially the first vacation rental focused property management company in Corvallis. We specialize in upscale furnished rentals. So our goal is to provide a clean, comfortable setting for travelers, business and family to stay in while they’re visiting the area.
00:24 Felicia Anderson, Corvallis Property Owner
We’ve had wonderful people, and we have a lot of returning guests. And so it’s been a great experience. Wouldn’t you agree?
00:32 Jim Anderson, Corvallis Property Owner
Yes, I agree 100% with that.
00:34 Alexandra Eder
We also offer extended stay properties. So a minimum of 30 days, our occupancy speaks for itself. People that stay with us are happy with our properties. Our clients are happy and we’re happy. (Laughter)
00:50 Jim Anderson
If you have some problem or need something changed. She just jumps on it right now and gets after it and makes it work. And she’s very pleasant to work with. She’s basically just a nice person.
01:03 Alexandra Eder
One of the benefits of working with Fernwood Circle Property Management is that we have all those systems in place. We drive traffic to our website, when you go to Airbnb and the VRBO sites, you’re paying 14 to 22% fee to make a reservation on that system. And when a guest stays with us, guests don’t pay those extra processing fees.
01:24 Joe Harmon, Corvallis Property Owner
The key with all property management, in my opinion is number one, marketing it and number two, taking care of it. And they do both. I’m out of state and my other family members are out of town. So it’s nice to have somebody right there on site to deal with virtually everything. You know, they have a lot of extra bells and whistles that Fernwood Circle and it takes… Takes a lot of management and time. So they’re very hands on.

With short term properties. It takes about six to nine months to get the Google reviews so that people have a reference for the experience others had. After about 12 to 16 months, clients can expect the visibility on the web and sort of an ongoing revenue stream.
02:12 Mark Thiele, Corvallis Property Owner
We were looking for somebody that had the full package. Somebody that could manage it for us and somebody that was going to help us through the buying process of the property all the way through setting it up for rental and getting started.
02:31 Becky Thiele, Corvallis Property Owner
We really trusted her expertise of the clientele and the area to make the whole thing work for us.
02:40 Mark Thiele
We are a house in a cul de sac with neighbors we have kids next door to us on both sides of the house. So we’re looking for a clientele that is going to be respectful of my neighborhood and respectful the neighbors in the neighborhood.
02:56 Felicia Anderson
It really is always above and beyond I’ve never had any qualms about anything being taken care of. She has a great contact with the guests. She keeps in touch with them through texts and calls and we’re just been so happy with everything.
03:11 Joe Harmon
Flexibility is really important and that’s… That’s what we’re getting from Fernwood Circle.
