How it works
Four steps whether you are looking for a home or renting one out, and straight answers to the questions people ask most.
Wifi, water and trash collection are usually included. Electricity never is: you pay for what you use, on a meter you can read yourself. Drinking water (the big galon refills) is yours too, and cleaning depends on the villa.
Every listing spells it out, so nobody gets surprised in month three.


From
one month
to a full year
Questions
No. Tenants never pay me anything. My fee comes from the owner.
One month. Many villas also offer 3 or 6 months or a year, and each villa page lists what's available.
Wifi, water and trash collection are usually included. Electricity never is: you pay for what you use, on a meter. Drinking water (galon refills) is yours too. Cleaning, pool service and gardening depend on the villa, and every page spells it out.
It depends on the villa and is listed on each page. I do move-in and move-out inspections with dated photos, so the deposit is handled fairly.
Some villas welcome pets, some ask first and some can't take them. Each villa page says which.
Yes. I do video-call viewings, and the contract is sorted before you land.
Message me. Urgent things like no water, no power or a leak get handled the same day, and I'll usually reply within the hour.
Uluwatu, Bingin, Padang Padang and Pecatu only. I turn down villas outside the Bukit so I'm never far away when something goes wrong.
Both. I find and look after long-term tenants, and I run holiday rentals on Airbnb, Booking.com and direct bookings.
15% of the revenue the villa earns, with cleaning, laundry, pool and garden staff included. No setup fee, and you get a monthly payout with receipts.
9% of the tenant's first payment, paid by you, and only when I've filled the villa. No tenant, no fee. If they pay monthly, it's 9% of the first month. If they pay a year upfront, it's 9% of that amount. Tenants never pay me a fee.
IDR 500k for a studio or loft, 750k for one bedroom, 1jt for two bedrooms, 1.25jt for three and 1.5jt for four. Cleaning, pool and garden are quoted separately.
Repairs, vendors and materials are billed to you at cost, with no markup. I can pay and you reimburse me against receipts, or you keep a monthly float I draw from. Either way, there's a receipt for everything.
For long-term management, my fee covers me, not a cleaning team. I'll work with your staff, or my own team is on standby at a flat monthly price. For Airbnb and holiday rentals, my fee is 15% of what the villa earns, and staff wages are included in that.
Not at all. With full management, the tenant pays me, I pay the villa's bills and transfer you the balance with a statement and receipts.
Regular written updates on rent, repairs and anything I notice, with receipts. You'll never find out about a leak three weeks late.

Ask me
The good ones on the Bukit rarely make it to the Facebook groups. They go to whoever's already on my list.
One email when something opens up. That's it.When a home comes free, you'll hear from me first. If you're after something specific, WhatsApp me and tell me what it is.
