AI property management in New York City
New York City is the most legislated short-term-rental market in the country. Local Law 18 caps unhosted stays at 90 days, individual building boards stack their own rules on top, and a single party-related complaint can pause a permit for the rest of the season. Steadward keeps an AI property manager on duty for every NYC listing — repricing rate by the hour against demand signals and channel parity, screening reservation requests against your house rules and party indicators before they hit your calendar, and answering guest messages in your voice in under four minutes, in whatever language the guest wrote in. When the cleaning crew logs a stain at checkout or the smart lock reports a four-door evening, the steward routes the issue with photo evidence so it never surfaces as the next four-star review.
