As you know, at Anything for Hire, we love to hear of positive partnerships being formed in the hire industry, especially when they involve large corporates. This is why we were thrilled to learn of Google’s latest venture, joining forces with Rentals United; a Cloud-based channel manager.

Together, the companies will streamline the work of property managers, marrying United Rental’s inventory to Google’s Hotel search results. This will see those working with Rentals United able to tap into Google’s vast network and other partnerships, listing their properties on Google Maps, Google Search, as well as OTAs like Booking.com, HomeAway, TripAdvisor and Airbnb consequently.

Rentals United CEO James Burrows said:

“As one of the first channel managers to partner with Google as they enter the vacation rental world, Rentals United is well positioned to help property managers navigate this evolving industry. We hope property managers come ride the first wave with us.”

According to the brand, this new partnership will benefit their customers hugely, expecting them to enjoy 25 per cent increase in bookings as well as saving 20 hours a week in administrative duties. So, all in all, this is great news for the rental industry!
