It replaces the guest service fee that marketplaces add at checkout with a smaller one. Airbnb publishes that fee as 14.1–16.5% of the booking subtotal; Vrbo publishes a 5% commission plus 3% payment processing on the host side.

Terms are agreed in writing before anything starts, and you will have the full document to read before you sign. We are not going to characterize our own agreement in marketing copy — ask for it and we will send it.

Tell us about it. Nomad is new and building the portfolio deliberately, so the honest answer on any given home is a conversation rather than a scoring rubric. We will tell you plainly if it is not a fit.

It depends on licensing in your jurisdiction, photography scheduling and what the home needs. We will give you a specific timeline for your home once we have seen it, not an averaged one before.
