Most Frequently Asked Questions - Home Owner

How often will my home be occupied?

Our property management service maximises your income through achieving high occupancy in parallel with competitive pricing. Using rental platforms like Airbnb, we ensure that each listing has the potential to consistently generate income. For those who also live in the home on occasion, our holiday home management team will work around your schedule to ensure that your home is always clean and ready for you when required.

What happens if something is damaged during a guest stay?

Monty Holiday Homes prides itself in undertaking a thorough guest vetting process that ensures those staying in your home are going to take good care of it! Before and after each guest stay, the home is carefully inspected and compared with our agreed inventory. In the event of any damage, we will rectify the situation and return matters to how they were at the outset of the stay. Airbnb offers a Host Guarantee that protects hosts worldwide if damage does occur during an Airbnb occupancy. We will also implement our own policies, such as guest deposits to further mitigate against this risk.
