We Operate Purpose Built Vacation Rental Homes and Communities
Every home we run was designed for short-term rental performance before the first guest arrived. Our job is making sure that performance reaches your statement.

Purpose Built Designs It. Stay Synthesis Operates It.
Every great performance asset needs two things: the “hardware” built for the job, and the “software” that makes it run.
The “hardware” is Purpose Built. Every home we operate, standalone or within a master plan community, was developed under the Purpose Built framework of Steve Trover, who pioneered the modern purpose-built vacation home and developed the first structured R&D process in the category. That process translates decades of operational data and guest behavior into architectural decisions, and it is what we build from. Bedroom counts are sized to demand. Floor plans sleep efficiently and turn over fast. Furnishings are selected for durability, review scores, and revenue rather than residential taste.
The “software” is Stay Synthesis. Founder and CEO Cori Lee built this company to do one thing: operate purpose-built inventory at the level it was designed for. Before founding Stay Synthesis, Cori built Trust Synthesis, a trust management firm serving short-term rental management companies nationwide, and ran operations inside vacation rental management itself. She has managed other people's money, other people's systems, and other people's properties. That is the operator running your asset.
“Purpose Built designs the ‘hardware.’ We are the ‘software.’ Neither performs without the other.”
Cori Lee, Founder & CEO
How We Operate
The Stay Synthesis Operating Model
Revenue Operations
We operate every home as a revenue-producing asset, not a listing. Booking pattern analysis, seasonal demand modeling, and competitive positioning drive performance at the community level and the unit level.
Dynamic Pricing
Real-time rate management powered by market data, demand signals, and comp-set intelligence, calibrated to purpose-built inventory that outperforms its comp set by design.
Trust-Grade Financial Reporting
This is where Stay Synthesis is unlike any other operator. Our founder is one of the industry's recognized authorities on trust accounting, the fiduciary discipline of holding, managing, and distributing owner and guest funds. Every owner statement is built on that standard, on a technology stack Cori assembled herself, with data flowing from booking to bank statement without a manual gap. Owners see exactly what we see, because the books are built to be seen.
Asset Care and Turnovers
Maintenance and turnover programs are engineered around the home itself, and around the community when we operate at density. Every property is guest-ready within hours of checkout, and preventive care protects the physical asset for the long hold.
Regulatory Operations
Purpose-built communities are structured for durable STR entitlement from day one, and we maintain permitting, licensing, tax, and compliance obligations in every market we operate. The operation never stops.
Guest Experience
Five-star operations across every touchpoint, from inquiry through stay to post-checkout, protecting the reputation of every home and every community we operate.
Two Settings. One Standard.
Communities and Standalone Homes
Within master plan communities, operating density lets us engineer turnovers, maintenance, and guest services into the neighborhood itself, backed by entitlement written into the community's DNA. For standalone purpose-built homes, the same operating system runs at the unit level, built around a floor plan and amenity program we understand before the first booking.
