SwedBnB was looking for a tech partner to help maintain property safety and comfort across its portfolio of vacation rentals. By integrating Minut’s monitoring solutions, the team gained real-time insights into noise levels, temperature, and guest behavior. This proactive approach helped prevent issues such as parties, noise complaints, and heating failures without compromising guests' privacy.
Founded in 2018, SwedBnB is a professional vacation rental property management company based in Sweden. With a focus on providing high-quality, well-maintained homes, SwedBnB caters to both local and international property owners, ensuring their assets are efficiently managed. The company offers personalized services including guest screening, maintenance, and marketing, all while prioritizing the safety, comfort, and satisfaction of both property owners and their guests.
SwedBnB operates in residential neighborhoods where community members and property owners are concerned about potential disturbances caused by guests. It was looking for a reliable way to reassure owners that their properties would be protected from disruptive activities and corresponding damage. The team realized they needed a multi-layered approach that included not only guest screening and pricing strategies to attract respectful guests but also real-time insights to proactively keep a closer eye on their properties.

"I love being able to sit down with property owners and go, ‘Oh, you’re worried about parties? Let me show you something.’ And they instantly see the insights and control we have with Minut."
SwedBnB integrated Minut’s system as a proactive 'line of defense.' By using Minut’s decibel monitoring, the team could identify potential disturbances early and intervene if noise levels became a concern. Additionally, they tailored their property marketing to attract a more professional clientele by avoiding images or messages that might suggest a party-friendly atmosphere, and clearly stating the presence of Minut. With Minut’s monitoring features, SwedBnB could show property owners in real-time how it maintained peace, which reinforced their confidence in the team’s property management.

A number of SwedBnB’s properties are owned by international clients who often invest heavily in creating welcoming, high-end guest experiences with furnishings that need extra protection. In one such case, this investment was at risk when a group of guests smoked on the veranda, violating the non-smoking policy and allowing smoke to drift inside.
“Minut’s smoking sensor saved us a huge cleaning bill and potential tension with the owners. It’s another example of Minut keeping us proactive—we know that getting onto issues early is key to effective property management."
Thanks to Minut’s smoking sensor, the SwedBnB team immediately detected and responded to the smoking issue. They contacted the guests promptly, reminding them of SwedBnB’s strict smoking policy and clarifying designated smoking areas. By addressing the issue before it escalated, they protected the property from significant smoke damage and prevented an expensive deep-cleaning bill. The immediate intervention safeguarded the property’s condition and demonstrated SwedBnB’s commitment to protecting owner investments.

SwedBnB’s properties are spread across Sweden, where winter temperatures frequently plunge below freezing. If a property’s heating system were to fail, especially when the property is unoccupied, indoor temperatures could drop to uncomfortable or unsafe levels, creating potential risks for guests and the property itself. The team understood that maintaining a consistent, safe temperature is essential for guest comfort and avoiding emergency situations—such as frozen pipes—due to prolonged exposure to extreme cold.
"By monitoring temperatures closely, we can make sure that every property stays at a safe and comfortable level, even during the harshest winters. It’s all about preventing problems before they start, so guests always arrive to a warm, welcoming home."
SwedBnB adopted Minut’s temperature monitoring as a core component of its winter property management strategy. By setting customized temperature thresholds, the team now receives alerts when a property’s temperature falls below a safe level. This allows them to quickly arrange heating adjustments or repairs to restore a comfortable indoor environment well before guests arrive or any risk escalates. With Minut, SwedBnB provides a warm welcome for guests, even during severe cold spells, while reassuring owners that their properties are safeguarded from potential cold-related issues, and the expenses that come with them.

“Minut gives us peace of mind. We get valuable insights into our properties, allowing us to monitor what’s happening at any given time. The next logical step for us is to expand this visibility alongside Minut’s future features, ensuring we continue to uphold our commitment to proactive property management.”
