The StaySavr browser extension for owners and renters is a wonderful idea.

After 24 hours it stopped working for me, but I have since heard from STAYSAVR their safety features have "blocked" me and they will unblock me asap.

Like most owners I find the additional hoops we have to jump through to use the major listing sites a real pest. ( OwnersDirect was a superb help to owners just a few years ago, but since being gobbled up by corporate entity HomeAway / EXPEDIA they have become very restricting and not at all useful)

Payment Choices are reduced and our business model is now based on a money generating corporate model - generating cash for corporate EXPEDIA. These middlemen websites are now charging renters a fee in addition to charging the owner to list their properties. - not at all what we owners want.

STAYSAVR is a great idea - bringing renters and owners together so they can deal direct with each other- more power to them!
