We became aware of Over Sea by staying at one of their properties in the summer of 2021 while on vacation in Nova Scotia . We were interested in buying a property in Nova Scotia as a vacation spot but would only be able to undertake this if it made financial sense, which would require us to make the property available for short term rentals . Needless to say we had no expertise in this market nor the management of the property and we could only do this with expert advice. This is where Jordan and his team stepped in. They assisted us in locating a property that we both loved and could be a financial success in the short term rental market. They gave us their expert advice as to which properties we were interested in would also appeal to the short term market. They also gave us some parameters as what we could expect as rental income and occupancy (clearly not hard representations but what they expected). Based on that advice we found the right property that meet these goals. This was part one of the experience.

Part two was after purchase assistance in furnishing the property to appeal to short term rentals and sourcing the furniture (and this was during the height of covid and supply chain issues). Jordan and his team (I will not mention them all but a shout out to Kate) stepped up to this challenge and while it was a bit more expensive then I had hoped (do to supply chain issue) they did an awesome job and the house looks great and appealing.

Part three is the marketing and hosting services . Suffice it to say that we are having more rentals then expected in the financial model and only 5 star reviews on Airbnb.

Thanks to Jordan and his team – they really care

Working with Jordan at Over Sea (and in fact the whole team!) was, from the beginning, a fantastic experience! From our first meeting, envisioning the potential of our property as both a vacation rental and event venue, to bringing that vision to life, Jordan and his team showed dedication and passion. They encouraged my participation in many decisions when I chose to be involved; however, it was their careful planning, hard work and dynamic vision which truly brought this beautiful property to its full potential. From the initial planning stages to creating a well-respected and sought-after brand, I was amazed how it all came together given the remote location of the property and how intricately designed and decorated the home was. The detail required to maintain everything from landscaping to dusting the many antiques was done with such care, ensuring the unique and serene guest experience the property became known for. All this while working within the unique constraints of the house simultaneously being for sale - a challenge they met and supported with ease. With the eventual sale of the property, we said goodbye as business partners, but not as friends! I hope to work with Jordan again with another property in the future, but in the meantime, I can’t wait to see how he continues to influence this growing industry!”

After meeting with Over Sea we decided to complete the recommended renovations and add our flat to their rental pool. Although we came to market in the midst of the pandemic, rental income exceeded expectations while all management tasks were expertly handled. OverSea is a responsive, honourable, well run organization and we highly recommended them.
