Rentals
Property management department offers a comprehensive service to owners giving you peace of mind when absent from your property. This is one of the most popular services offered by our company.
It includes everything that is needed to maintain and to rent out your property, from key handling, paying the utility bills and annual local tax, advertising and placing tenants for short or long term rental, communication with other intermediates (i.e. tour operators and travel agents) to assisting the tenant/tourist fully during their stay.
All the marketing and advertising will be handled by our own marketing department. We are running various advertising campaigns such as, local and international advertisements in the press and travel media, Internet advertising through our website and our affiliated network, participation in local and international travel shows and high street advertising in our local offices etc. We have teamed up with some of the leading local and international tour operators and travel agents promoting Bulgarian tourism, which guarantees the highest possible occupancy of the properties which we manage, giving you a good return on your investment.
Owners can use their property as much as they wish provided that they have informed us in advance and if there is no booking already made or long-term tenant staying at their property.
