Built for these operators
Single-asset operators
First-property launches in one city. Replace Squarespace + 4 disconnected SaaS tools.
Multi-city scale-ups
5–25-asset operators standardising brand + ops across markets.
Multi-country platforms
Multi-locale operators with city-specific funnels in 3–7 countries.
BTR + coliving hybrids
Build-to-rent operators adding coliving wings or co-managed inventory.
Branded-residence operators
Hospitality + residential blended brands. Dual-mode UX (guest + tenant).
Who this is NOT for
- Operators under 30 beds. Hostaway / Smoobu monthly fees will be cheaper for you. Talk to us when you grow.
- Operators happy with generic OTA-style booking flows. Your brand isn't the bottleneck for you yet.
- Anyone unwilling to migrate URLs + redirect old paths. We do this clean; we don't ship-and-leave.
Pick the stage that matches you
- Stage 1
Pre-launch / first asset
0–50 beds

See this tier - Stage 2

250+ beds
Full platform. Multi-locale, custom booking engine, BookMyColiving distribution, growth retainer. Typically 16–24 weeks.

The traps that tank a custom build
Custom builds drift
Without weekly checkpoints scope creep tanks the launch date and the budget.
Schema goes stale
AEO-eligible markup needs to be regenerated continuously, not hand-edited once.
PMS / CRM / web silo
Three tools run separately and reconciling spreadsheets costs more than the build.
No cost guardrails
Per-tenant + per-feature cost is invisible until the bill arrives.
Compliance afterthought
GDPR, RERA, MLS, KYC bolted on at the end is 5× the cost of building it in.
Coming from a SaaS you've outgrown?
We've migrated coliving operators off every major SaaS in the space. URLs preserved. Booking funnel zero downtime.
- Migrated from
Hostaway
7 engagements
Most-common migration. Hostaway kept as channel manager; marketing surface + direct-booking moved to owned platform.
- Migrated from
Cloudbeds
4 engagements
Mid-market operators tired of OTA-shaped UI for long-stay product.
- Migrated from
Mews
2 engagements
Hospitality-built but coliving's room-share + long-stay flows broke the box.
- Migrated from
Squarespace + Wix
Most single-asset operators arrive here. Migration is fast (4–6 weeks); SEO equity preserved.

What Hostaway actually costs you over 5 years
Hostaway charges per-bed per-month. Forever. A custom platform is a one-time cost.
| Beds | Hostaway, 5 yr | Noseberry, one-time | You save |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 | $21K | $15K | $6K |
| 200 | $84K | $80K | $4K |
| 500 | $210K | $150K | $60K |
| 1,000 | $420K | $250K | $170K |
5-yr SaaS cost = published per-unit per-month list price × 60 months × units. Real-world fees often higher once transaction percentages + add-ons are included. Noseberry build = scoped one-time fee with optional 12-mo support retainer (~15% of build). Talk to us for a per-vertical quote.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the engagement take?
8–24 weeks depending on scope. Single-vertical launches at the lower end; multi-region platforms at the upper end.
Do we own the code?
Yes. Every line, every model, every contract. Deployed to your cloud. No SaaS lock-in, no per-seat licence.
Can you migrate from a templated SaaS?
Yes. Most builds are migrations. We rebuild on Next.js with proper schema-first SEO/AEO, keep your URLs intact, and 301 the old paths.
Do you handle ongoing ops?
Yes. Most operators continue with us on a retainer covering content, SEO, paid, and growth experiments.
