The Company
Rentalo was listed and sold on Flippa for $33,000. The seller, Alfredo Purrinos, a small business owner and board certified professional engineer with work experience in the U.S. Federal government, was looking to retire and when he found the right buyer the sale happened quickly.
The company is an eCommerce website ranked by travel experts as the world’s largest online vacation rentals company providing travelers with access to a broad inventory of rental properties like vacation homes, villa rentals, boutique hotels, motels, holiday apartments, and more.
The company’s main client base are small business owners who rent their properties short-term.
Travelers can find great deals on properties like beach vacation homes, mountain cabins, unique bed and breakfasts, and world resorts.
From family vacations to business trips, over 5 million travelers have successfully booked property rentals via Rentalo.
