Passive Income,
Actively
Managed,
The tech-first property management solution designed for
the modern investor.
Owner Satisfaction
Increase in Net Revenue
Hidden Fees
should be as relaxing as staying in one. We replace the stress
of self-management with data-driven strategies, giving you
true passive income while we handle the rest.
Transparent Pricing, True Net Revenue:
We believe in clean revenue with zero hidden fees. While other
managers layer on “service fees” that bloat costs to 30%, we keep our
structure simple so you keep more of your earnings.
Data-Driven Revenue Maximization:
We utilize advanced SEO strategies and dynamic pricing software to
ensure your listing dominates search results and books at the highest
possible rate.
Smart Home Efficiency
Impeccable Quality Control
There is a reason we hold Airbnb Superhost status. We earned it through lightning-fast communication and rigorous, regular property inspections. This ensures your investment stays protected while guests continue to leave the 5-star reviews that drive future bookings.
- Our Process
From Acquisition to
Automation
We don’t just manage properties; we partner with you to build a portfolio.
Underwriting & Acquisition
Invest with Confidence. Not sure where to buy? We help you identify high-potential markets and specific properties. We run full revenue projections and underwriting before you make an offer, ensuring the numbers make sense from day one.
Design & Optimization
Designed to Convert. A listing is only as good as its photos. Our team assists with interior design and amenity optimization—knowing exactly which features (like hot tubs or game rooms) drive the highest daily rates.
Onboarding & Tech Setup
The Smart Transition. We install your suite of smart-home tech (thermostats, locks, noise monitoring) and integrate your property into our centralised dashboard for total control and asset protection.
Full-Service Management
Truly Laid Back. Once live, we handle everything: 24/7 guest communication, dynamic pricing, cleaning coordination, and maintenance. You simply check your monthly owner statement and watch the revenue deposit.

What Makes a Top Performer?
Not all rentals are created equal. To hit the top 10% of revenue in your market, we focus
on three pillars:
1. Amenities & Location
From pool heat to thoughtful interior design, we
know what guests filter for.
2. Visibility
If they can’t see it, they can’t book it. Our SEO
ensures you rank high.
3. Pricing Strategy
We don’t “set it and forget it.” We adjust rates daily
based on demand.

- About Us
The Team Behind
Your ROI
Laid Back Stays wasn’t founded by accident. It was built to solve a problem:
the gap between high-fee property managers and low-quality results. We
combine financial discipline with hospitality excellence to create a
management company that thinks like an asset manager.
The Executive Team
- Founder
Chayton Wagner
Before launching Laid Back Stays, Chayton spent time at one of the largest short-term rental management companies in the world.
Having seen the industry from the inside of a global leader, he possesses a rare understanding of the systems, data-driven pricing models, and logistical frameworks required to run a high-performing portfolio.
After managing portfolios for one of the world’s largest short-term rental companies, Chayton saw firsthand how “big box” management often sacrifices property quality for volume and eats owner profits with excessive fees.
Today, he leverages that global expertise to offer a leaner, tech-first alternative. By stripping away corporate bloat and focusing on rigorous quality control, Chayton ensures every property is meticulously maintained while helping owners reclaim their margins. Designed for the new generation of travelers, Laid Back Stays combines enterprise-level pricing strategy with a transparent, “laid back” philosophy that prioritizes high-tech stays and higher ROI.

Testimonials
A special shoutout to the Laid Back Stays team, especially property manager Chayton, for answering my texts quickly and with good humor. He ensured we had everything we needed during our stay and truly understands how to deliver a customer-centric experience.
Laid Back Stays has completely redefined our expectations for property management. Chayton and the team have truly rolled out the red carpet—not just for us as owners, but for every guest who walks through the door. We’ve worked with both a local and a national company in the past, and there’s simply no comparison. Their boutique-level service is second to none. The attention to detail is incredible—from the quality of linens to thoughtful touches that elevate the guest experience. Chayton’s hustle, deep local connections, and expansive network have translated into higher bookings, happier guests, and peace of mind for us. This is what it looks like when a team genuinely cares and backs it up with action. We couldn’t recommend Laid Back Stays more highly.
These hosts are the cream of the crop!!! You name it, they made it happen. Will stay at this place or any place they operate on my visits to Phoenix. If you’re on the fence, stop your search and book. I promise you, you will not be disappointed!!! Place is awesome, so perfect for families! So much to do and tons of space for everyone. Back yard is second to none.
This host was incredible! Our daughter got married in his neighbors backyard, we requested early check in and check out due to the wedding party staying here. They bought my daughter a card, drinks so she could celebrate. So extremely friendly and thoughtful! I would 100% recommend and stay here again!
Chayton and his team are incredible to work with. He is a great communicator and keeps property owners up to date with renters, needs of the house, and any feedback given to make experiences better. Couldn’t recommend working with Chayton more. Love that he is local and on the ground to get any needs met in real time. He is efficient and has many resources if you are needing help with tasks to get completed in a timely manner. He is the boutique property manager you are looking for!
