Owners

Rental management in Cotonou, off your mind.

An empty home in Cotonou costs money every month. A badly managed one costs more: damage, unpaid stays, unhappy neighbours, and an owner abroad who hears about problems too late.

What we take on

Everything that happens between two transfers: the rate valuation, the photographs, the listing, the choice of guests, the welcome on site, the cleaning between stays, the linen, the guarding, small repairs and the night line. You handle neither keys, nor complaints, nor tradesmen.

A written mandate, not a handshake

Duration, commission, each party's duties, how it ends: it is written down before the home goes live. In Cotonou most management arrangements rest on someone's word; that is precisely why they end badly.

You see everything

Your owner portal shows the calendar, the income and the home's documents, live, without having to call us to find out where the month stands.

In practice

  • A rate valuation by night, fortnight and month
  • Professional photographs and listing, in French and English
  • Guests welcomed on site, at any hour
  • Cleaning, house linen and guarding
  • Small repairs tracked and documented
  • A statement and a transfer every month

Common questions

What commission do you take?
It is set in the mandate, after the visit, and depends on what the home asks for: a furnished studio and a villa with a pool and a housekeeper do not cost the same to run. We tell you before signing, never after.
I live abroad — does that change anything?
That is true of most of our owners. Everything is done remotely: a filmed visit, a mandate signed electronically, an online owner portal, bank transfers. You do not need to be in Cotonou.
What if a guest damages something?
An inventory is taken at every check-in and check-out. Damage is recorded, photographed, documented and dealt with — and you see it in your owner portal, not six months later.
