Who’s behind Homello

Hi, I’m Thomas.
I spent years overseas managing short-term rental performance at one of the industry’s largest companies, working directly with platforms like Airbnb, Booking.com, and Expedia to maximise revenue.
I founded Homello to bring that expertise home and help Auckland homeowners earn more, attract better guests, and keep their calendars full.

What our homeowners say:

“We've worked with other Airbnb managers before for our home in Parnell, but our earnings with Homello have far exceeded those of other companies. Thomas is always there to answer the phone at any time, and he is truly an expert in this field. We would happily recommend him to any property owner.”

Alex
Homello homeowner

“I’ve had a great experience working with Thomas, he regularly checks on the property, keeps an eye on guest feedback and makes sure everything is running smoothly, which shows in the positive property reviews and repeat bookings. The property is always presented well, maintained properly and managed with care and attention to detail. ”
