Management
Our management fee is competitively priced.
We arrange for all cleanings to be made after stays, handle the towels and linens, as well as provide maintenance service.
Our inspector goes into every property after it has been cleaned before the new guest arrives to ensure the cleaner did their job properly. He/she also checks for damages, makes sure all doors and windows are closed, the thermostat is set at a reasonable temperature, etc.
Our owners have the capability to log into our software system to view their property calendar, previous owner statements and block owner stay dates. Owners are allowed to stay at their property anytime of the year. Email notifications are also sent out each time a reservation is made.
