Once we have received your enquiry and you have confirmed that you are in a position to host your property, the process is as follows:
* Once qualified, we book a first visit to meet you and appraise your home and its rental potential, after which you will receive a proposal.
* If you decide to go ahead, you will sign a contract, and we will arrange a professional photography session.
* Your house listing is advertised on multiple online platforms to guarantee the highest reach and to optimise occupancy rates. We then support you to ensure your home is ‘guest ready’ in time for your first check-in.
* After your departure, we take care of everything to ensure your home and your guests are well looked after!
* Prior to your return, we ensure your home is cleaned and prepared, ready for us to hand back your keys.
