VRBO Vacation Rentals By Owner
Expedia’s whole-home platform, skewed to families and longer stays.
Why you care
VRBO guests book earlier, stay longer and skew older and more affluent. For a large Florida pool home it is often 25–40% of revenue, not a rounding error.
Worked example
Host fee is typically 5% commission plus about 3% payment processing, and the tax remittance rules differ from Airbnb’s. Check both separately.
