Elevating Guest Experience Through Tech and Design ft. Joe Young
Description
On this week's episode, Avery is joined by Joe Young, an Austin-based luxury short-term rental operator and co-founder of SPRKhost. Joe shares how he and his wife began with a Lake Travis vacation home in 2017 and ultimately turned their primary residence into a single property grossing nearly $500,000 a year. He breaks down how they expanded to managing 20+ high-end listings, the power of combining neighboring properties into mega-listings, and why Austin’s STR “crash” is really a market correction shaped by permitting, density rules, and growing competition. Joe also reveals his new venture, ExperiHaus, a TV-based guest-experience and revenue platform designed to help hosts elevate their brand and earn additional income.
