Boutique short let management in Malta

We manage 30 listings in Malta. Yours would be one of them.

Landlord Care looks after luxury and high yield short lets. Valletta townhouses, seafront penthouses, homes with pools and jacuzzis, guest houses and entire apartment blocks. We keep the portfolio small on purpose, so every property gets real attention and every owner gets a person, not a ticket number.

The filter

We turn down most of the properties we are offered.

Standard inland apartments, single rooms and properties with no route to an MTA holiday licence need volume management. Volume is the opposite of what we do. Every property we accept is one we can visit in person, price by hand every week, and answer for at two in the morning. That only works with a short list.

A capped portfolio is not a limitation we apologise for. It is the product.

The two models

Take the upside, or take the certainty.

Full management

12 to 14 percent of net payouts, plus VAT

You keep the revenue and the upside. We run everything: pricing, listings, guests, cleaning, maintenance, reviews and reporting. You get a monthly statement and a monthly transfer. Our fee is a percentage of what the platforms actually pay out, after their commission, so we only earn when you earn.

  • No fixed monthly fee, no lock in on the first year
  • Setup and furnishing quoted separately and transparently
  • You keep full control of the calendar and can block owner stays

Guaranteed rent

A fixed rent, paid the same date every month

If you want the income without any of the variables, we take the property on a sublet. We pay you a fixed monthly rent for the whole term, including the months the property sits empty. We carry the running costs, the low season, the guest problems and the wear. You do nothing except receive the transfer.

  • Same amount every month, twelve months a year
  • We fund and carry the operating cost and the void risk
  • Minimum term applies and the property is returned in agreed condition

What we decline and why
From first message to first payout

You will know exactly what happens, and when.

  1. 01

    Qualification, day 1

    We look at the property and tell you honestly if it fits.

  2. 02

    Audit and projection, week 1

    On site visit, licensing check and a realistic twelve month revenue forecast built from live Malta comparables.

  3. 03

    Agreement, week 2

    You pick management or guaranteed rent. We handle the MTA holiday licence if the property does not have one.

  4. 04

    Setup and finishing, weeks 2 to 6

    Furnishing, compliance, smart access, linen, professional photography and a 360 virtual tour.

  5. 05

    Listing and distribution, week 6

    Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Expedia and a direct booking page, all synced through one system so the calendar can never double book.

  6. 06

    Launch, first 60 days

    A deliberate launch price to build the first reviews fast, then we step the rate up.

  7. 07

    Live operations, ongoing

    Guests, cleaning, maintenance and reviews, handled.

  8. 08

    Reporting and payout, monthly

    One clear statement, full accounting and eco-tax reporting. One transfer. Same date.

How we run it

Professional systems, not a spreadsheet and a WhatsApp group.

Boom Tech

One calendar across every platform, so a double booking is not possible.

PriceLabs

Rates adjusted daily against live Malta demand, events and competitor pricing, then reviewed by hand every week.

Stripe

Direct bookings paid directly, without platform commission in the middle.

Questions owners ask

Straight answers.

Luxury and high yield property in Malta. Villas with pools or jacuzzis, Valletta and Three Cities townhouses, seafront and penthouse apartments, guest houses, and entire apartment blocks. If a property cannot realistically clear a strong annual revenue on the short let market, we will tell you and point you elsewhere.

Send us the property. We will tell you honestly if it is for us.

A photo and an address is enough to start. If it is not a fit, we will say so the same day and tell you who to speak to instead.
