Discover our step-by-step process

For a better understanding of the property management process, we invite you to take a look at our full process.

STEP 1

Property analysis

Credos specialists will analyze the condition and appearance of the property to create a preliminary report that includes:

Estimated monthly income

Based on the performance of similar properties (size, location, amenities) in the area. We will estimate the monthly income you can expect based on historical market data.

Recommendations for improvement

Based on the property analysis, we will create a list of potential improvements we can make to the property to maximize the revenue generated from the property.

Key property issues

Following our examination, we will present you with potential repairs, safety risks and aesthetic details that could greatly influence the rate at which the property can be rented.

STEP 2

Legislative preparations

Through strategic dialogs, together with the specialists in the team, the terms and conditions of the collaboration will be established.

Contract presentation

Finalize the terms of the contract and ensure consensus between the parties to ensure your needs are covered.

Receiving and signing annexes

As part of the commodatum contract, you will receive a number of attachments to ensure that all your belongings are registered before you start working with us.

Contract finalization

It will specify the range of services provided, the responsibilities of the parties and the financial terms which will clarify the expectations and legal protection of both parties.

Dedicated Account Manager

Each Credos customer is assigned an Account Manager who will assist them every step of the way.

From specific questions to regular updates, the Account Manager is your main point of contact and will be in charge of regular property inspections and performance reporting, communication with guests as well as the owner.

STEP 3

Apartment preparation

The Credos team will make sure that the apartment is ready in all respects for hotel rental.

Design proposal

Depending on the condition of the apartment, Credos experts will suggest a customized design concept that guarantees the attractiveness of the property. This involves aligning the aesthetics of the property with current market trends.

Furnishing your apartment

We will position the furniture in such a way as to enhance its aesthetic appearance and practical utility. Later, we will add decorative elements (e.g. paintings, lights and decor elements) to create a welcoming atmosphere.

Preparing facilities

From basic amenities such as WiFi to premium amenities (e.g. espresso machine, Netflix, etc.), the Credos team will make sure guests have everything they need for a memorable experience.

Professional photography

One of the most important factors that will determine the success of your property is the quality of your photos.

Our photographers will make sure they capture the welcoming atmosphere of the property and highlight all its unique features.

Print local guide and apartment rules

To ensure a complete experience, we create a house rules guide as well as a local guide.

These will contain essential information about the property, as well as a wide selection of local services, facilities and sights available during your stay.

Automated check-in

In order to simplify guest access, we will introduce an automatic check-in system by installing a key-locker or a smart yale depending on the method agreed with the owner.

Guests will receive the access code on the day of the start of their stay. The code will of course be changed periodically to ensure the security of your property.

Supplies

The last step in preparing your apartment is stocking up on supplies. From toiletries to welcome gifts, we make sure that the property is fully prepared to welcome guests.

STEP 4

Listing

At this stage, the Credos team will take the final steps to list the apartment on the market.

Creating the listing

The Credos team will upload the photos, prepare the property description, and fill in all other necessary details, such as the list of amenities.

Listing your apartment on 5 channels

To get the most visibility for your property, we will list it on AirBnb, Booking, Credos Properties, Vrbo, Agoda and Expedia.

Calendar synchronization

To stay up to date and avoid overlapping bookings, we will synchronize the 6 channel calendars directly with your dashboard in Credos Properties.

Everything will update automatically, without any effort on your part.

Adding your property to the Credos portal

Especially for guests who decide to return, we will add your property to the Credos Properties portal.

In addition to exposure, Credos customers benefit from uncommissioned bookings, resulting in higher revenue for you as a customer.

STEP 5

Recurring activities

From here, the Credos team will handle all operational activities to ensure the apartment continues to perform.

Dynamic price optimization

We use real-time price adjustment systems in line with local market fluctuations. This ensures optimal occupancy and income at every time of the year.

Cleaning & washing sheets

From general cleaning to changing the bedding, the Credos cleaning team will make sure your property is in immaculate condition for your next guest.

Supplies

From toiletries to welcome gifts, the Credos team makes sure your apartment has all the supplies you need for your next guests.

Monthly performance report

Each month, your Account Manager will send you a performance report to keep you up to date with the status of your property and the income generated by it.

Special cases

24/7 emergency interventions

The Credos team is available 24/7 and ready to solve any kind of guest problem.

From providing specific facilities (e.g. baby cot) to providing a new apartment in case of a technical breakdown (e.g. problems with the central heating).

When you want to use the apartment

If you wish to use the apartment during the year, the Account Manager will be at your disposal to block the periods you want at any time.

It will also advise you on market trends so you can make the best decision.
