+1 on this idea.
Also, many of our owners prefer not to pay for additional cleaning, so we just clean after they stay and they arrive at a dirty house. not my choice but saves them money, would be nice to distinguish between the two for scheduling .
also we occasionally provide promos for guests we don't need to do for owners.

I'm not sure trigger events are sufficient.
This needs to work for integrations.
Of a owner blocks they should be able to specify if it's a reservation or not. A checkbox or a selector for” number of guests”
0 guests would be a maintenance block. 1 or more would be a booking
Example. We use vrschrfuler.
Owner stays need cleaning. Vrschefuler doesn't see these but should
However, owner blocks to do some work on the property, or just to avoid potential party dates. This doesn't need cleaning.

what you describe is extending the stay directly. they make a new reservation as a direct booking.
I think what you want is:
if airbnb, then use airbnb alteration to extend stay.and if booking.com use booking extend stay.
my personal preferences is to pocket the platform fees when guests extend. The platform isn't doing work so why should they get a commission on a guest wanting to enjoy our hospitality more.
So I charge them the same rate they paid on the platform and share the spoils with my owners. -

should be a hierarchy.
default "agency"
then "owner" if set
then 'property" if set.and for parent-child listings, the parent data should be inherited by the children unless overridden at the child listing level

The owner isn't collecting the payment, so they're not the one legally responsible for tax reporting.
When you then pay the owner, you issue them a 1099 which shows the IRS that some of your income was paid out to someone else.
If this is for your own records, just use a custom variable and add the owners taxid there, but be careful not to use that variable in a template.
I don't think taxID numbers are synced to airbnb from hostfully in any case, you set your tax id on airbnb's side. if you use the co-host feature, each separate account has their own tax information and airbnb provides appropriate 1099's to whomever was sent money.

I made a similar argument for inactive listings, the response I got from hostfully was that they consume resources whether they're active or not, so they feel they should charge them.

does this mean that you only open for booking during the season..
I mean if it's a summer rental but someone can book july in december, then it's active?An error occurred while saving the comment Keith

Agreed
Most software allow archiving which incurs no or discounted rates
I understand there are storage costs but these are minimal
What we need here is a flag (or a different kind of owner block)
Owner stay = cleaning,
Owner block = maintenance or something that doesn't require cleaning.
we need the same for manager blocks, we need to tag blocks we create as needing cleaning or not.
If syncing with cleaning integrations (operto, etc.) this should sync as a stay,
