A calmer way to outsource the operation

Not a real estate agency. A hands-on rental management partner.

We focus on the part that owners feel every day: presentation, guest communication, cleaning standards, pricing discipline and clear monthly visibility. The goal is simple — better stays, stronger reviews and less friction for you.

01

Performance starts before check-in

Photos, scores and response quality shape demand before a guest ever arrives. That first impression is where better performance begins.

02

Operations only work when standards stay high

Cleanliness, timing and guest care are not extras. They are the operational details that protect reviews and support long-term results.

03

Owners should stay informed, not overloaded

We handle the moving parts, while you keep clarity on what matters: activity, condition, communication and ongoing performance.

Managed listings and live reviews

Better presentation. Stronger reviews. More confident demand.

Guests decide quickly. The success of a listing often starts in a few seconds: the images, the review score, the speed of reply and the confidence that the apartment will feel right on arrival.

01

Photos & scores

This is the gateway. Strong photos get attention, strong scores build trust, and together they improve booking ratio and yield.

02

Response time

Guests expect fast answers. A clear reply at the right moment can be the difference between a booking won and a booking lost.

03

Cleanliness

The first impression on arrival stays with the guest until review time. Clean apartment, happy guest, stronger review — full circle.

We focus on the things that shape every stay: presentation, communication, cleanliness and the small details guests remember. That is how stronger reviews and more consistent performance are built.

Three management options

Three management models. One owner-first approach.

We do not force one model onto every owner. The right setup depends on the apartment, the expected demand and the level of involvement you want to keep.

Short-term rental management
01

Short-term rental management

Airbnb and Booking management for apartments suited to guest stays, flexible calendars and stronger seasonal demand.

Long-term rental management
02

Long-term rental management

Stable rental management for owners who prefer predictable monthly income, fewer turnovers and lower guest-operation intensity.

Hybrid rental strategy
03

Hybrid rental strategy

A flexible approach where the model can shift between short-term, mid-term and long-term depending on season, regulation and demand.

The honest truth

Renting out an apartment easily becomes a second job — we take that off your shoulders.

Running an apartment well takes time, consistency and fast decisions. Pricing, guest messages, cleaners, small repairs and changing rules all affect performance. We take care of the day-to-day operation, so owners stay informed without being pulled into every detail.

The 2am messages

Lockbox codes, late check-ins, "the WiFi is down." We're on call 24/7 so you never are. Your phone stays quiet.

Empty nights & flat pricing

Static prices leave money on the table. We re-price daily against demand, events and seasonality to fill your calendar at the right rate.

Cleaning & turnovers

Same-day turnarounds, laundry, restocking and quality checks — handled by our vetted team. Hotel-clean, every single stay.

Changing regulations

Budapest's short-term rules keep shifting. We track them, keep your listing compliant, and pivot you to long-term leasing if it earns you more.

Maintenance headaches

Plumbers, electricians, that finicky AC. Our trusted contractors resolve issues fast — usually before a guest even notices.

No idea where you stand

Most owners are flying blind. You'll get a clean monthly statement: occupancy, revenue, costs and payouts. Zero surprises.

Full-service management

The operation behind the stay, handled properly.

We connect the visible guest experience with the back-of-house work owners usually do not want to manage: listings, messages, cleaning, check-ins, maintenance coordination and reporting.

01

Listing setup & pricing support

Listings across Airbnb and Booking, with practical pricing support based on seasonality, demand and your preferred rental strategy.

02

Photography & presentation

Professional presentation support when the apartment needs a stronger launch or a more competitive visual position.

03

Guest communication

Clear guest communication before, during and after each stay, including arrival guidance and practical support.

04

Cleaning & maintenance coordination

Housekeeping, linen, restocking and trusted contractors for repairs. Your apartment stays guest-ready.

05

Long-term rental management

For owners who prefer stability, we support tenant coordination and ongoing apartment management.

06

Monthly owner reporting

A clear monthly statement and on-time payouts. See occupancy, revenue, costs and net results.

Getting started is easy

A clear process from first call to full setup.

A simple process from the first call to signed agreement and ongoing rental management. Exact timing depends on the apartment, photos, listings and operational setup.

1

Free consultation

We discuss your apartment, your goals and whether short-term, long-term or hybrid management makes the most sense.

2

Site / apartment visit

We review the apartment in person or remotely, check the condition, guest-readiness and what would be needed before launch.

3

Preparation & contract

We agree the management model, scope and terms, then prepare the operational setup: listings, guest info, check-in flow and cleaning coordination.

4

We manage, you stay informed

We coordinate guests, cleaning and apartment operations, while you receive clear updates and monthly reporting.

Owner questions, answered

Questions owners usually ask before getting started.

For short-term and hybrid rentals we charge a percentage-based management fee. Long-term management is priced differently depending on what's involved. Either way, you'll get a clear written proposal after the consultation — nothing is agreed until you're comfortable with the terms. Because setting up properly takes real effort, our agreement includes a setup recovery fee if the cooperation ends early; this is always explained openly before you sign anything.

No. The apartment is yours and stays yours. Financial and tax obligations — including IFA, TFH and any other local requirements — remain with you as the owner. We handle the operational side: listings, guest communication, cleaning coordination and monthly reporting, all within the scope we've agreed together.

Short-term can earn more during peak season but involves more day-to-day work on our side. Long-term is steadier — predictable income, fewer turnovers and much less admin. Hybrid blends both: short-term lets when demand justifies it, longer tenancies when it doesn't. We'll talk through what makes sense for your apartment and your goals during the consultation.

Budapest's rules vary by district and have been shifting in recent years. We follow changes closely and adjust your rental strategy when needed — you don't have to keep track of it yourself. If the regulatory picture changes significantly, we'll discuss the options with you directly.

Wherever the platform allows, rental income goes directly to your account. We invoice our management fee separately each month based on the agreed structure, with a clear breakdown so you always know what you're receiving and why.

We talk through your apartment, your goals and which rental model fits best. If it's a good match, we'll arrange a visit or a more detailed review of the apartment, then send you a clear proposal covering setup, scope, fees and the next steps to get started.
