VRS241 – Vacation Rental Renovation Stories with Tyann Marcink

No items found.

There is something addictive about this business, and Tyann Marcink, founder of the VR Mastered Bootcamp, knows this more than most. She is a talented vacation rental photographer, has undertaken numerous VR makeovers and is the owner of multiple properties, the latest of which is a fully renovated former bank in the small town of Marthasville, Missouri.

In this episode, Tyann shares her passion for the industry, the story behind the decision to buy in a location that’s not typically regarded as a destination, and how she’s able to market with impact.

There’s a lot in this episode to learn from as Tyann delivers a masterclass in knowing her guest persona and renovating to meet their needs. For example, the Bank Haus is close to a number of wedding venues, so she has catered to those attending by including a ‘beauty bar’ which is a separate space for people readying for an event – whether it’s for doing their hair, or make-up or generally dressing up for the occasion. She also says – “I I want a place I can bring my grandma to” which is what many people attending weddings will also want, so the Bank Haus is fully wheelchair and special needs accessible.

Tyann shares:

  • How she started up with building a property in Branson Missouri and now has several more
  • Why a business park makes her Union, MO property successful
  • Why she wants us to collaborate with competitors
  • The importance of word-of-mouth marketing in some markets
  • How she uses old-school marketing to spread the word
  • The reason she will accept 6 dogs in a 2-bed home
  • Why good enough is often good enough – perfect is not always necessary
  • How to create a luxury feel in a bathroom at a minimal cost
  • The 3 necessary features for a vacation home renovation for STR purposes
