Rentals

MYspanishproperties have been in the property industry for the last 8 years. Property management services have been offered but on a very small scale to regular clients.

We offer villas, townhouses and apartments for both long term rentals and holiday lets depending on the owner’s requirements and rent to both Spanish and English families.

Preparing Your Holiday Home

MYspanishproperties takes pride in the standard and presentation of the accommodation. Holiday makers and long term tenants alike need to feel at home in your property, therefore a “home from home” is the result required.

First impressions are very important and it is necessary that the property is clean and tidy, clutter free and easy on the eye.

It is important that you put yourself in the place of the holidaymaker and equip your property with items you would like if you were paying to rent the property, for example air conditioning is normally a must for holiday rentals, and time saving luxury items such as dishwashers ensure that your property will be more attractive to rent than others in this competitive market place.

Keys

It is essential for us to hold two sets of keys to your home. These will be coded and kept in the locked store cupboard at our office. Unfortunately, keys do get lost from time to time by guests and it may be necessary for us to change the locks on occasion. We will carry this out immediately if there is a risk to your home and let you know that your new sets of keys are ready to collect upon your next visit. The charges for replacing locks are made to the tenant.

Short Term Rentals

MYspanishproperties have tenants looking for rentals from a few days, a week or sometimes two or three and these are usually from March through to October. A deposit will be requested when the booking is taken and a bond will be paid when the clients arrive at the accommodation. Any breakages will be deducted from the bond at the end of the stay.

Long Term Rentals

MYspanishproperties have tenants looking for properties to rent from any time period from 1 month to 1 year. Client’s reasons for renting vary, they may just be visiting Spain for the winter or planning to move here permanently. Some clients rent from us whilst they are waiting for completion of their property by the builders; others already live and work in Spain.

We have had a tenancy agreement drawn up by our solicitor in Spanish with a translation in English. A deposit of one month’s rent is always held against any damages. Costs for water and electricity are in addition to the rent (unless short term holiday rentals).

Additional Services to clients and guests

• Taxi transfers from the airport to the accommodation
• Baby Sitting Service
• Golf Tee Times

MYspanishproperties Services

There are three levels of services available from MYspanishproperties.

A) Property Management
B) Management and Lettings
C) Booking Service.

A) Property Management

This is mainly for those owners not living in close proximity to their home in Spain. It is important we understand that your property is not just an investment; but that this is your home in the sun and respect the fact that it might need maintenance from time to time. We will act as your caretaker and ensure peace of mind in your absence. Our management package can be as flexible as you need it to be.

We will visit your home at least once a month to air the house, check and repair any minor maintenance problems. We will check that all the light bulbs are working, water the plants, air the rooms, test the water to the bathrooms and kitchen and check for leaks. Humidity can be a problem in Spain and therefore it is crucial that the house is aired on a regular basis to prevent any build up of damp.

Maintenance Team:

Major faults will be reported to you immediately, we will obtain quotes for the repairs from our reputable contractors and organise the repair upon your authorisation.

If the repair is urgent, such as a water leak, we will immediately take steps to prevent any further damage.

MYspanishproperties Information Pack

Each property will have its own individual information folder to ensure that your guests have a trouble free and enjoyable holiday. The information folder will detail the local area with maps, dates and details of local fiestas, markets and attractions.

B) Management and Lettings

MYspanishproperties will undertake to market and advertise the property for both long and short term rentals as you require. The property will be placed on selected commercial websites in order to attract more bookings, made available to the Tour Operator and our agent in the UK.

C) Booking Service

Some clients employ us simply to market their property and take bookings for holiday and long term rentals.

There is a registration fee for this service of €125, which includes photographing the property and placing it on our website and making available the weeks you require let.

Can I Take My Own Bookings?

MYspanishproperties is happy to assist in the administration, cleaning and laundry of your own bookings. However we do ask that you inform us of any bookings that you have taken yourselves by informing us by email of the dates you have booked yourselves as we need to keep our “availability List” completely up to date
