How we work
Initially we meet at your property to discuss the possibilities and advise you on all the aspects of letting and how we will market your property. We suggest rental prices for both short and long lets, throughout the year or just during te season. Also the more practical side of letting will be discussed, like arrangements for “change-over days” for cleaning and changing linen.
Once the contracts are signed, our photographer will take shots of the interior and exterior of your property, and we will prepare the full-page details for your property's description.
What do we expect from the homeowner
- To prepare and maintain the property to an agreed standard.
- To prepare two copies of a full inventory of equipment at the property.
- To prepare a list of 'house rules' in order to avoid any problems regarding the usage of the property.
- To fully insure the property and make sure that all the necessary arrangements or documents are in order for letting the property.
- To commit in advance, during which the property will be available.
- To ensure that the property is in a clean and tidy condition.
Unless otherwise stated, all prices of the properties are quoted in Euro's.
