Matt Pesler
OWNER & MANAGING DIRECTOR
About ME
Hi, I'm Matthew Pesler, the owner and director of Grand Welcome in Cincinnati, Ohio, and Northern Kentucky. I grew up near Dayton OH, where I graduated from Wright State University with a bachelor’s degree in Organizational Leadership. Since then I have lived in numerous cities including Boston, Denver, and Nashville…but am proud to now call Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky my home.
I started out in business management, and more recently am co-owner of a successful insurance agency right here in Cincinnati. My love for travel and hospitality eventually led me to my true passion, vacation rental management. I’m grateful to my family, who have always been my biggest supporters.
Over the past decade, I've built a personal short-term rental portfolio consisting of 30 units throughout the area and have assembled an amazing team that truly goes above-and-beyond to provide the best vacation rental experience.
What I Love About Cincinnati & NKY
In my free time, I enjoy hiking at the numerous beautiful parks, kayaking, golfing at Cincinnati and NKY’s many courses and listening to live music at local venues. My wife, Marianne, and I appreciate experiencing the diverse food scene, catching a sporting event, and spending time with our son at the zoo, aquarium, and museums.

Being out of state, I was apprehensive about purchasing an investment property in Covington. Matt and his crew quickly eased any fears that I had. Property managers are usually a mixed bag, but with Matt's team the service has been top notch. They're responsive, take pride in their work and their attention to detail is superior to any other management companies I've worked with. I hope to add additional properties for Matt to manage in the near future. Thanks!
This house was perfect for family traveling from different states to gather! The house was clean, warm, very well and tastefully stocked! Location was great too! Communication with Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY was awesome as well.
Working with Matt and his team for our first short term rental has been wonderful. They're responsive throughout the process - call, text, etc. The flexibility and support has been most important to me as a client and I look forward to continuing to work together, hopefully with more listings!
We had a great stay! Perfect location being so close to The Ark Experience. We had everything we needed and everything was clean and comfortable! We really enjoyed our time here!
Matt and his team have been great to work with over the last few months. Their communication has been great, any issues have been resolved quickly, and they have taken wonderful care of my property. I look forward to continue working with them.
This place was just what I needed - a home away from home. Beautifully decorated clean and cozy! Very close walking distance to a lot of restaurants. The property management team at Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY were very responsive and helpful.
Matt’s units are always well thought out and designed with the client in mind. Very passionate about providing top notch service and being a resource for any questions someone might have about short and mid term rentals.
Really enjoyed our stay at Lee Street! House was great, towels were provided, staff was quick to respond if we needed anything & house was only 8-10 minutes from downtown Cincinnati. Great house for our family trip to the Ark & the Creation Museum! House was very clean. Would definitely stay here again!
Matt is an amazing property manager. He goes over and beyond to make sure that the guests have a wonderful experience. Matt is a people person who takes great pride in his work. He communicates at the highest level. His ability to solve problems is second to none. He has made my life as an owner care free. I truly believe that Matt is the best in the business.
Amazing location and quality! The place was immaculately clean , located just off of a vibrant entertainment avenue. Parking was simple and safe. The accommodations were spacious and tastefully decorated. Quiet neighbors.
Matt is a great host! We’ve stayed at his property a few times and he is always attentive and accommodating! Any time we reached out he responded promptly, and was a huge help. When we travel in this area, we always try to stay at his property!
I’ve had an amazing experience working with Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY. They have been extremely responsive, organized, and helpful with all my tenants. I would highly recommend Matt as our preferred partner when building your portfolio of properties. As I look to expand my real estate investing business, Grand Welcome will be there every step of the way.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY. I cannot say enough positive things about them. From start to finish, their team was professional, efficient, and dedicated to providing exceptional service. One of the things that stood out to me was their attention to detail. They took the time to understand my unique needs and preferences, and went above and beyond to ensure that my property was managed to my satisfaction. They were proactive in identifying potential issues before they became problems, and were always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. Overall, I highly recommend Matt Pesler and his team to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and knowledgeable property management company. They truly exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.
I've been working with Matt and his team for a few months now and they have been a life saver. I live out of town and I can rest easy knowing that they are on the ball 24 hours a day. I've frequently asked them to go out of their way to accommodate special requests which they have happily done without fail. 10/10 would recommend.
Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY did an excellent job! They provided excellent service, the property matched the description, the value was much better than a hotel room (more space, very clean, secure, private), and the location was great for us. The extra touches were definitely appreciated. We will definitely consider them in future reservations.
Great experience working with Matt and the team at Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY. As a Real Estate agent it nice to know when your are working with a team that knows what they are doing and how to treat people.
We have a short term rental in Mt. Adams managed by Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY. We couldn’t be happier. The whole thing has been so easy and they do a great job. We highly recommend!
Matt and his team are the best in the business! We love working with him! Promptness and attention to all the details will make working with him beneficial and super easy!
Great location! We had everything we needed for the week. Space was decorated nicely and was clean. The location was quiet and we loved the comfortability of the rental. Would definitely stay here again!
This was one of the best AirBnB experiences I have ever had. The house is very accommodating for a large family and had plenty of amenities. We brought utensils for cooking and we didn’t have to use any of our stuff because the kitchen was well stocked. The host also provided plenty of bathroom and bedroom amenities. Plenty of towels and blankets. The experience was excellent and I highly recommend!
I've been working with Matt for years because he ensures every guest enjoys a top-notch experience! I highly recommend using Grand Welcome Cincinnati & NKY as your short term rental property management company.
Great accommodations. Well decorated. Very comfortable and clean. Short walk to restaurants and nightlife. Matt and his team were so easy to work with and made our two night stay very pleasant. Price was great, less than a hotel downtown with none of the hassle. Like staying at your own home while on vacation. Have recommended to friends and family. Will definitely stay here again.
Matt and the team at Grand Welcome Cincinatti & NKY have been fantastic. As investors, we have properties and managers across the country. They've been the most proactive and sensible managers we've ever had. They make fast decisions and send prompt statements of services and profit/expenses. We've really appreciated the peace of mind of knowing there is a competent dedicated person looking after our interests.
Absolutely loved my time here! The unit was amazing. Matt was always available. I would definitely rent from him again.
I have loved working with Matt and his team! For anyone looking to invest in this space, don’t do it alone… go with Grand Welcome of Cincinnati & NKY.
Our experience was more than great! The house we stayed in was in a beautiful neighborhood in Covington, KY. We were there for around a month. It was very clean, spacious, nicely furnished, newly remodeled, and you could not hear the upstairs tenants at all. We had a lot of trouble with that issue previously with other people we had booked with. Comfort was a 10/10. The few parks close by for the kids to play were a major plus for us. We were staying close to Cincinnati Children’s for my daughters chemo treatments, and it was a short and easy commute. We felt very much at home, which was our main goal for our kids since we were 4 hours from our home in WV. Communication with Matt and Crystal, the property manager, was excellent. Super hospitable, kind, generous people! I highly recommend booking with them!
