But what about the rest of the year? Although many of us would like to be on holiday 365 days a year, reality negates this possibility, and many of our clients return to their country of origin for a signi cant portion of the year.
So what happens to your dream home from home when you are thousands of miles away? Who will look after your beautiful new property and keep it pristine, so that you can enjoy the perfect “White (sand) Christmas” on your return?
Good property management is key. It allows you to enjoy the fruits of your purchase while also giving you a return on your investment. All the while giving you the peace of mind that any and all emergencies will be dealt with in a timely manner giving you full transparency when it comes to your property maintenance costs and income.
With our in house booking team and network of a liates we are able to manage all your Airbnb and guest holiday rentals, from initial enquiry, meet and greet, through to departure, and then chase reviews and feedback from guests to ensure even more bookings the following year. Villa Management will do all the leg work on your behalf in order to manage and grow your holiday rental business.
Remote ownership will never be
without its di culties, there is no substitute for being at the property in person so that you can see exactly what happens after a pipe bursts and speak directly with the plumber on site. However with photographic property checks and nancial statements being sent at the beginning of each month, our property owners have a very clear insight as to what the status of their property is at any point in time.
We cannot guarantee there will never be any emergency maintenance issues or hiccups along the road, however we can assure all our owners that we will provide clear and concise communication if any problems do arise.
With a designated team of professional property managers we are always available to speak with our owners to discuss their property and the overall status of their home, guests stays, future bookings, maintenance, taxes or any other aspects that may be required. Emergencies are also dealt with through our 24/7 emergency line for guests and owners so we are never more than a phone call away.
But you don’t need to just take our word for it, Villa Management Ltd has been managing property in the Caribbean for the past fteen years, and has consistently remained one of the largest and most trusted property management companies in Antigua. To further attest to the quality of our service you only need to look to our client retention, with some of our owners having remained with us for the best part of a decade. n
