But, success in this does not just mean placing a simple ad for the short term let or holiday rental, hoping to get some tenants who hand over their money to you.

Rental and occupancy levels expected

We can assist in optimising the rental amounts for you, so that you get a good return for your investment for your Marbella property - in what has become a highly competitive market on the Costa del Sol. At the same time you will want to offer exceptional value for money to your clients.

A satisfied client is a returning client

They come back year after year - and a retuning client is a profitable one. So we work to advise you - as an owner - on the best possible package for both sides - we want happy owners and satisfied tenants

Occupancy

Expectations will vary with the type of property, condition and location. Beware of property salespeople who suggest over-optimistic occupancy or an excessive number of rental weeks - their objectives may be different to yours ! Rents and occupancy proposals can change over time - we have extensive experience of this market, and can advise on what is realistic and what is achievable

Marketing & Advertising

We discuss with individual owners their expectations on rents and activity, and attempt to maximise occupancy levels on this basis. An advertising approach and strategy is developed, which suits the owner and ourselves

We have a popular and growing website

Which will feature every property we are involved with. There is a substantial PR exercise under way to broaden awareness of our name in the press across Europe, so that more clients will be attracted to renting your property through us.

We do not charge owners for a website presence on the LetsRentMarbella website

If necessary we also advertise on other high traffic rental websites - this is individually agreed and paid for by specific owners who want this service

We also have a wide network of agents

and associates and agents across Europe, who will help us to promote your property. This is in addition to our own marketing efforts. Our aim is always to attract the largest number of quality paying clients for you - who are prepared to pay the optimum rental levels. This will ensure that your clients are receiving the best value for money for their holiday, and that you are receiving the best return on your investment.

Word of mouth

Much of our business results from returning customers from years gone by

We maintain a detailed Rental Calendar

so that your own vacation time can be "blocked out", and you can set renting availability to suit your own personal timetable.

Damage Deposits

One unfortunate aspect of renting is that - from time time - there is some accidental damage to your property.

We protect our Marbella property owners against that, by insisting on substantial damage deposits from tenants. We manage these extremely carefully - our overriding objective is to protect our owners' financial position against any loss in these situations.

Our personal "check-out" system - where we meet the departing tenant just before they leave to collect keys etc - ensures that a full inspection is made at the end of the rental period.

Any damage can be assessed, and deductions are made from damage deposits where necessary.

Rental accounting

For all holiday rentals in our Marbella properties, we collect deposits from prospective clients, receive transfers for rents, make agreed deductions and transfer the agreed rental amounts back to owners according to an agreed timetable.

Fully computerised accounts are sent to owners on a regular basis, so that they know exactly how their Marbella property investment is paying off.

Meet & Greet your rental clients

One of our major advantages, being on the ground in Marbella, is the high level of customer service we can offer. Your rental clients are met at your Marbella property on arrival, features of the property are explained to them, and any final queries can be dealt #with.

Welcome Packs

These can be provided so that rental clients can feel at home just as soon as they arrive. Our pre-shopped Welcome packs can be pre-ordered and bought by rental clients from us. These include all the basic necessities for their first evening or day at the property - tea, coffee, milk, bread or whatever you, or the client, want us to buy.

Tenant Check-in and Check-out

This also allows us to find out about the type of clients who are coming into your home - in this age of internet bookings you often have no idea who is arriving. We can act as your control system.

Cleaning and Laundry

We discuss with owners the level of cleaning and laundry changes required during a typical letting period, and with tenants where there may be special needs during their holiday period.

Changeovers and Turn-arounds

At the end of every rental period we normally send in a cleaning "hit-squad" to turn the property around for the next incoming client. In high season this is often the same day, so we only have a few hours to do this. At other times of the year, the procedure is a bit more relaxed

Our objective is always to present your property as being as close to perfect as we possibly can, for your incoming tenant

Imagine the sheer pleasure of the incoming client on arrival at a beautifully pristine property - or the intense sense of disappointment, if the place is just not up to standard, after substantial rentals have been paid over
