Indicative gross figures before fees and running costs, based on typical market rates. Your survey gives a forecast for your actual unit.

From keys to first guest.

One team handles every step. You approve the key decisions in the app and we do the rest.

  1. Sign up from anywhere

    Create your account with UAE PASS or your passport, share the title deed and sign the agreement digitally.

  2. A bright, newly finished apartment kitchen

    Survey and snagging

    We inspect the unit, document every defect with photos and connect DEWA, chiller and internet.

  3. A styled living room with warm lighting and soft furnishings

    Furnish and style

    Pick a design collection. We furnish, style and photograph the home, and can recover the cost from income.

  4. Permits and listing

    We secure the DET holiday-home permit and classification, then list on Airbnb, Booking.com and our own site.

  5. A made-up guest bedroom ready for arrival

    Host and maintain

    Guests are verified before arrival, every clean is photo-checked and repairs are booked before they grow.

  6. Get paid monthly

    Payouts land on a fixed date each month, with a statement covering every dirham in and out.

Everything you own, in plain sight.

Live earnings, photo proof for every job and every permit tracked. The owner app answers questions before you ask them.

Your home, live.

Bookings, payouts and occupancy, updated as they happen.

A freshly cleaned, sunlit living room

Every job, photographed.

Cleans, repairs and inspections arrive with time-stamped photos, so you see the work, not just the invoice.

Reports that read like a letter.

A plain-language summary arrives with every payout.

Choose how you get paid.

Trade certainty for upside, or the other way round. You can change plans at renewal.

A floor beneath you, upside above.

We agree a minimum yearly income, then share anything above it. You are covered in a slow year and rewarded in a strong one.

Best for owners who want security without capping returns.

Every plan includes furnishing support, permits, pricing, guests, cleaning, maintenance and monthly statements.

Which areas do you cover?

We are starting with Dubai's main short-stay communities, including Dubai Marina, Downtown, Business Bay, Palm Jumeirah, JVC, Dubai Hills and Creek Harbour. Ask us about other areas and emirates.

Is my building allowed to host holiday homes?

Many are, but some owners' associations restrict short stays. We check your building before you commit, and recommend monthly or long-term stays if holiday homes are not an option.

How do you charge?

On revenue share and hybrid plans we take an agreed percentage of rental income. On fixed rent we lease the home from you at an agreed rent. Your survey report sets out the exact numbers.

Can I still use my home?

Yes. Block dates in the owner app for your own visits and we will have the home ready when you arrive.

I live abroad. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Agreements are signed electronically, everything is tracked in the app and payouts reach you abroad. If a step needs a power of attorney, we guide you through it.

Can you switch between holiday, monthly and long-term?

Yes, that is what adaptive mode is for. We recommend a plan each season based on demand and your preferences, and nothing changes without your approval.

Ready when your keys are.
