How To Unhassle Your Holiday Home

You have dream holiday home. The idea was that you and the family enjoy it.

We also had issues with our own holiday home.

We bought this home in season. The restaurants were full, the beaches packed and we though this was the place to buy a holiday property.

And on top of all the fun, we'll get an income from making the home available as a self catering unit.

As we got more experience we identified issues we had as absentee home owners. And therefore know some issues other people had with their holiday homes.

And because they were similar to our own we decided to manage homes for other holiday makers.

With our own home as the lab we realized that a home away from home needs special care. We needed to promote the self catering business, we needed a management team, etc.

Therefore we had to use a holiday home management team to unhassle our issues.

A few years ago we permanently moved to life in what other people will call a holiday home. Yes. We moved to the city where we had our holiday house. Cape Town.

And we started our own holiday management team.

By The Way:

I think that the most important issues that a holiday management team addressed for us was; we paid to have someone to be accountable.

We paid money for someone trustworthy to manage our holiday home. We realized we could not go to the neighbour demanding;

Hey! Why did you not tell me about the water leak!

What Issues Are UnHassled By A Holiday Management Team

Let's Have A Look At The Functions

I have come across real fancy names like property concierge and personal concierge. But these names are highly useless but it sounds good.

There's another type of business related to holiday home management and that's called home sitters. But they are that; they sit in your home when you are away. These can be arranged for you but we don't do the sitting thing.

Let's share with you a list of functions taken care by your holiday home management team:
  1. Do regular and thorough inspection at your home. These inspections include the inside and outside of the home. And the intention is to detect issues that can become major cost factors. It includes simple but important issues like emptying the post box.
  2. Taking care of the home before you arrive and after you leave. This option includes cleaning of the home, unlocking and welcoming guest, even taking care of guest, stocking of the home and supervising maintenance.
  3. Becoming a full time manager and promoter of self catering homes for absentee home owners.
