Proof of the expansion of the management of holiday apartments as a business: Netflix has just made it part of its programming. If you’re a close follower of the streaming platform, you may already be familiar with Stay Here, the docu-reality series in which tourism apartments play protagonist. If you haven’t seen it, check out how an interior designer and a real estate agent show the owners of various holiday apartments how to get the most out of their properties. There’s nothing better than seeing them in action to understand what a company like Lodging Management can do for you.
The state of a tourism apartment and its location are no obstacle: there’s nothing that designer Genevieve Gorder and real estate expert Peter Lorimer can’t fix. That’s the message that Stay Here, the program that elevates the management of holiday apartments to a broadcast attraction, offers its audiences. From a boat moored in the Seattle port to a fire station in Washington…any property, even in the worst conditions, can be transformed into one that’s not only highly in demand, but also receives top ratings from its guests. The two professionals analyse the property down to the most minute details to bring out its strengths and make its weaknesses disappear as if by magic, with the ultimate objective of getting the most out of the property on the market. It’s exactly what the Lodging Management team does when we take over the responsibility of managing your property.
If you’re thinking about joining the tourism rental apartments sector, perhaps you can identify with one of the owners on the Netflix series. If you’ve realized that you need the help of professionals, here’s what’s included in our management of holiday rentals in Barcelona or, as in the series, in any part of the world. Just like the pragmatic designer Gorder, our interior design and decoration specialists put every property under the microscope to carry out the necessary renovations and make your apartment irresistible to potential renters. That’s how, in the first season of Stay Here, a near-collapsed cabana next to the ocean becomes a great rural hideaway and a residence with a pool is finally able to shine after its other hidden problems are worked out. If you’re having trouble getting your holiday apartment to stand out from competitors’, you may need a professional to take the reins. But in a city with as much offer as Barcelona, a simple surface cleaning, or even a deeper rework, won’t be enough…that’s why Lodging has become a master of holiday home restyling, adapting our work to any situation.
Stay Here makes it clear that a market analysis is essential to guarantee the success of your tourism rental. It won’t be worth much that your apartment is more beautiful than ever if the offer as a whole doesn’t reach, or impress, potential guests. And that’s where the tireless real estate agent Peter Lorimer makes his entrance, as the figure responsible for deriving maximum potential from each property. Like the show, at Lodging Management we, too, analyse the competition so that we stand out not only in terms of quality, but also rates: what we call price optimization in holiday rentals. We chart the evolution of prices in real time of your biggest competitors to make sure that you’re the one who always walks away with the client.
There are dozens more services offered within our complete package for the management of holiday apartments that aren’t mentioned in Stay Here, including our 24-hour customer service; check-in and check-out management; the housekeeping and required maintenance between visits; and follow-up with your guests to make sure that they come back and recommend your property to others. It’s a long list, to which you could add 1001 requests that we are delighted to respond to whenever our clients need us. So this Netflix series will give you a great idea of some of our work, but don’t forget that there are even more benefits to be had!
