My parents own a beachfront house at the St. Regis Bahia Beach, and they're also Cent card holders (well, dad is), and have been Amex cardholders since the late 60's. Dad was contacted by Amex about allowing his property to be rented by [inspirato]. I'm not entirely sure of the terms, but it's enough that the mortgage, fees, and utilities are covered, while still retaining 50 days of use per year. So not bad.

emphasis on managing, in terms of signing new leases, to increase supply for their members
if homes are members-only, may be similar to airbnb homeowners being given data on guests
current club price may not be much of an entry barrier, but there is also membership agreement
on 03/27/22 inspirato pass website shows these counts when filtering "homes" (not "hotel") >
1BR 10
2BR 70
3BR 91

significant percentage are condos at hotels, probably safe to say majority of them are
and pretty sure there would be filter for single family homes if there were more of them
seems like they could easily have pass membership tiers that differentiate properties, and they could still put higher tier properties in lower tiers at last minute if they are not booked, but maybe that is more of a medium term thing even at this point
presumably number of club and pass members will be a key metric in quarterly earnings reports, in terms of competition for availability
