BIOGRAPHY

President and owner Elmer Frias and his team would like to introduce you to This Must Be The Place Rentals. Elmer's roots are from the Big Apple where he earned a Bachelors of Arts degree in Social Science from New York University (concentration in International Studies). While always a New Yorker at heart his destiny has brought him to Fort Lauderdale where he serves as a member of the Miami Board of Realtors and a licensed real estate agent.

Aside from being drawn to the great weather, Elmer saw South Florida's vast year round potential in hospitality and tourism. He founded TMBTPR with his wife in 2014, which was then the early days of Airbnb and other short term rental sites. They started with one home and since then-now own and operate numerous properties throughout the Sunshine State. TMBTPR is a team of young and creative minds who along with an appreciation for hospitality and interior design, also are numbers driven. They strive to improve year over year in revenue, customer service rankings, and expand their ever growing network of repeat business.

Cleaning/Maintenance

We work with dedicated cleaners and contractors who only work with vacation rentals and most importantly understand the business, guaranteeing fast and effective turnaround periods. This is a fast paced business and we know how to keep up!

Marketing/Exposure

Our marketing efforts have also produced excellent results for our clients. We have many ideas on how to rank up your listing in the search engines and algorithms. For our clients we have implemented successful social media campaigns partnering with well known influencers. This has increased our views on Airbnb which translates into more bookings.

Design

An appreciation for interior design would be an understatement. We value the importance of a well appointed vacation rental and understand how it translates into customer satisfaction. This is why we have taken courses at the University of Miami in interior design to solidify our grasp on the latest trends and styles. All with the mindset that tasteful doesn't necessarily need to equate with expensive, this is because we focus on the feeling of a space. For us, simplicity and functionality is paramount . We have performed full restorations and staging services as well as procurement of furniture for some of our clients, staying within budget and oftentimes staying below! We offer design consultations complimentary for our clients.

Licensure

All of our properties are fully licensed under the FDBPR (Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation) and registered with the all of corresponding city agencies. We have a collective license status which grants us up to 85 units to fall under our licensing umbrella. By joining our team your property will also be licensed, we take of all of the paperwork!
