Most companies in the industry don’t include the hefty fees such as VAT, Booking Platform/OTA fees, Tourism Dirham, Cleaning, etc. as a part of their commission. Many advertise having low commission, but after these fees the owner ends up giving up much more than the advertised management commission.
We do things differently. We markup prices (Average Daily Rate) to account for the aforementioned fees, so that they don’t come out of the owners cut.
Costs such as maintenance, and utilities will be deducted from the top-line/room revenue. If the property is unfurnished or is furnished and requires some changes, those costs will fall on the owner – we help with furnishing (See FAQ 9). Please see the example below.
