Delia Marquez
Editor-in-chief at Copper State Host Report.

Ran short-term rentals across Phoenix and Sedona for eight years before starting Copper State Host Report to cut through host-tool marketing.
What Delia covers
Delia covers the rankings as a whole — which companies make the shortlist, where they land, and whether a claim is solid enough to publish. Every piece of that work is held to how we test and our editorial policy, which means no company can pay for a place, a score, or a kinder sentence.
How Delia works
Nothing Delia publishes rests on a vendor’s summary of itself. Where a company does not publish a fee or a price, the review says so plainly rather than printing a guess dressed up as research. Our weighting leans hardest on guest experience (35%), transparency (30%), and the same rubric is applied to every company in the field — the one we rank first included.
Where you will see Delia’s work
Across our two rankings — management companies and host software — and in the individual reviews, which now run to 28 management companies and 24 software tools, each on its own page with the provider’s published facts laid out in full.
