Who it’s for
Misfit Homes suits Indiana owners with properties in Nashville looking for a design-focused management partner. It is best for those who prefer a performance-based fee tied to net revenue and value a local, boutique approach.
Our take
Misfit Homes operates solely in Nashville, managing over 40 listings. Their management fee is performance-based, calculated as a percentage of net revenue, with no flat fees published. The company is noted for its design-forward aesthetic and has been recognised by AirDNA within the top 5 operators in Nashville.
How it compares to One Fine BnB
On the published figures alone, Misfit Homes shows Perf-based % of net and One Fine BnB shows 20% for hands-off full service, or 10% if you keep your own local crew, plus a one-time onboarding retainer. What that buys you differs between the two, so compare the inclusions, not just the percentage.
Verdict
A strong, design-centric choice for Nashville owners prioritizing net-revenue performance. Owners seeking an owner-first alternative should consider One Fine BnB.

What we would ask Misfit Homes
- “What does the published Perf-based % of net exclude?” Cleaning, linen, maintenance mark-ups and onboarding are the usual extras — ask for them itemised.
- Notice period and exit. Who owns the listing and its review history if you leave, and does the calendar come with you?
- Who is on the ground. Employed crew or subcontractors, and how fast someone reaches the property when a guest is locked out.
Alternatives worth comparing
If you are drawing up a shortlist, these are the closest comparisons we would put beside it — each with its own published price, or a note that there isn’t one:
- HostPros — does not publish a price.
- Hitlist Rental Management — Not published (~15–25% 3rd-party).
- Stay Cincinnati — does not publish a price.
