FAQ
Owners' questions, in one place.
What does YourDomi do, how does working together go and how do the monthly statements work? Here are the answers owners need most often. If your question is not here, we are happy to help.
General
Which homes do you manage?
Mainly villas, large homes and owners with several properties on the coast, in Bruges, Ghent, Antwerp, the Westhoek, the Flemish Ardennes and Wallonia. Not sure whether your home is a fit? We are happy to look at it together.
Can I still use my home myself?
Yes. You block your own stays in the calendar yourself. We take them into account in the planning and the prices.
Who pays for cleaning?
The guest pays a cleaning fee per stay. It covers the cleaning, and the linen when we supply it. We look at this for each home.
When do I receive my money?
Every month you receive a statement per property, showing the revenue, our fee, every cost and the amount you receive. If you do not receive the rental income yourself, it runs through a third-party client account and the payout follows within the first ten working days of the month.
Is it better to let in my own name or through a company?
That depends on your situation. We set out the options and discuss them with your accountant. The tax advice itself comes from your accountant.
Services
What does YourDomi do with full management?
We take over guest communication, pricing strategy and listings on Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. Our own team does the cleaning. You receive a monthly statement per property.
Can I hand over only part of the work?
Yes. Besides full management, we offer lighter packages: advice on your listings, using a channel manager, a website and pricing strategy. You can also leave only guest communication and pricing strategy to us.
Do you manage both villas and flats?
Yes. We manage villas, family homes and flats by the sea. For each home, we look at the best approach.
Getting started
What do I need to arrange myself before starting?
Very little. During onboarding, we check with you the registration with Toerisme Vlaanderen or the Commissariat général au Tourisme, the fire safety certificate, insurance and your municipality's local rules. Our free start guide sets out every step.
My home is already let. Can I switch?
Yes. Mention your current rental in your request. In the proposal, we look together at how the switch will work.
What if my home has not been handed over yet?
Then we prepare the rental together ahead of the handover. For a new build, the choice of rental structure can make a big tax difference.
What does onboarding cost?
Onboarding, photography or a smart lock are set out in your proposal in advance. You know what you pay before you sign.
Fees and statements
How much does management by YourDomi cost?
It depends on your home, the package and the number of properties. We do not work with a standard rate. After a meeting, you receive a tailored proposal with every agreement in writing.
Do I pay anything when I stay in my own home?
No. We charge nothing on your own stays or those of family or friends. We only agree in advance on how cleaning and linen work.
Is there a tax advantage for private individuals?
Possibly. A tax reduction may be available to private individuals, but it depends on your situation. We look at it case by case with your accountant. Our tax guide explains the rules.
Profitability analysis
What is the analysis based on?
On market data for similar homes in your area, per season. We look at revenue, occupancy and nightly rate, taking into account your home, its location and your own use.
How quickly will I hear back?
Within one working day, we contact you personally to go through the proposal.
I have several properties. How does that work?
Fill in the form for the first property. We discuss the others together.
My home has not been handed over yet. Can I still request an analysis?
Yes. Give the expected handover date. For a new build, we also set out the rental structures, as that choice can make a big tax difference.
Regions
In which seaside towns is YourDomi active?
Along the whole Belgian coast, from De Panne, Koksijde and Nieuwpoort through Ostend, Bredene and Blankenberge to Knokke-Heist.
Do you also manage homes in Wallonia?
We are ready for owners in Wallonia who want to get started. Our Wallonia page explains how we work and which rules apply there.
My home is not in any of these regions. Can I still get in touch?
Yes. Get in touch, we are happy to take a look.
Can guests book directly with YourDomi?
Yes. Guests book directly on book.yourdomi.be, alongside Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo.
Home watch
Do I have to let my home through YourDomi?
No. Home watch is entirely separate from letting. Your home stays yours, for your own use or empty, and we keep an eye on it.
Which regions do you cover?
The Belgian coast, Ghent and Antwerp. Not sure whether your home is in our area? Just ask us.
What if something is wrong?
We call you the same day. Small repairs are handled by our regular tradespeople once you agree. On the Watch plan we charge a €25 arrangement fee; on the Care plan it is included and handled with priority.
How long does the contract run?
At least 3 months. After that it can be cancelled monthly.
