Casago Franchise Expands in San Diego With Addition of Former Vacasa Rentals
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Casago, the premier vacation rental property management company known for its franchise-first model, has partnered with current franchise Casago San Diego to manage more than 150 coastal vacation rental homes previously operated by Vacasa. Casago San Diego grows with 150 new coastal homes, reinforcing its franchise model that prioritizes local leadership and owner-centric values. The Casago San Diego franchise is led by Carlsbad locals Dave Carter, Bert King, and Erik Trogden, local real estate professionals with more than 35 years of combined experience in buying, selling, investing, and managing properties in the region. The trio joined the Casago franchise network in 2022, drawn by the brand's owner-centric values and hospitality standards. The Casago franchise, based in Carlsbad, is focused on helping homeowners maximize rental income while protecting long-term property value. This transition is part of Casago's broader strategy to bring former Vacasa markets into its franchise system, replacing centralized oversight with local operators who deliver personal service, backed by the support and technology of a national brand. With operations already established, Casago San Diego will continue to deliver hands-on, personalized service through its established local team. The team has already earned distinction as Airbnb Superhosts (averaging 4.96/5 stars) and Vrbo Premier Partners (9.7/10 rating), recognition of its attention to quality, responsiveness, and local care. Dave Carter, Casago San Diego owner said: 'Our journey with Casago started as guests. For more than a decade, my family vacationed at Casago-managed homes in Santa Barbara, and those special experiences left a lasting impression. From the start, it was clear that Casago shared our values, an owner-centric mindset and a genuine commitment to five-star guest care.' 'As longtime real estate professionals and North County locals, the three of us bring a strong mix of industry experience, service focus, and deep local knowledge. We're proud to bring that together under the Casago name and build something exceptional here in San Diego.' Steve Schwab, CEO of Casago said: 'What makes this transition meaningful isn't just the homes, it's the people stepping in to manage them. Dave, Bert, and Erik aren't outsiders. They've lived in this community for years, they've earned trust here, and they are consistently delivering exceptional five-star guest experiences.' 'This is what the Casago model is all about: putting local leaders in charge. When the people making decisions actually know the homeowners, the properties, and the neighborhood, everyone benefits — owners, guests, and the community.' This transition reinforces Casago's momentum as more homeowners seek long-term, transparent partnerships in today's evolving vacation rental market. About Casago Casago is a top-rated vacation rental management company providing professional property management services for homeowners across North America, Belize, Costa Rica and the Caribbean. Founded in 2001 by former Army Ranger Steve Schwab, Casago has earned a reputation for delivering exceptional guest experiences and reliable property management services through a franchise-driven model.
