Two Property Management Models
Some owners want upside. Others want stability. Manila Stay offers both.
Model 1
Airbnb Co-Hosting
Best for owners who want to maximize income with direct Airbnb visibility.
- Owner keeps the Airbnb listing
- Airbnb automatically splits payouts
- 75% owner / 25% Manila Stay
- Full transparency inside Airbnb
- Owner funds setup and property preparation
This co-hosting model is ideal for owners who want performance upside while keeping visibility on bookings and revenue.
Model 2
Guaranteed Rent
Best for owners who want fixed monthly income with zero operational involvement.
- Owner receives fixed monthly rent
- Manila Stay operates the property directly
- Setup costs covered by Manila Stay
- Property preparation covered by Manila Stay
- Operational risk assumed by Manila Stay
This model is ideal for owners who prefer stable income instead of variable short-term rental performance.
Not sure which model fits your condo?
Complete the 2-minute property questionnaire and we’ll assess whether your unit is a better fit for Airbnb co-hosting or guaranteed rent.
Which Model Fits You?
Both models work. The right one depends on your priorities — income upside, risk tolerance, and how much predictability you want.
| Decision factor | Airbnb Co-Hosting | Guaranteed Rent |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly income predictability | Variable — follows market demand | Same amount every month |
| Income ceiling | Higher — you keep most of the upside | Capped at the agreed monthly rent |
| Income floor (low season) | Drops with occupancy | Protected — paid regardless of bookings |
| Who carries the risk | Shared with Manila Stay | Manila Stay assumes it fully |
| Setup investment from owner | Owner funds setup & preparation | Manila Stay covers everything |
| Listing visibility | Owner keeps the Airbnb account | Operated under Manila Stay listings |
| Best fit if you say… | "I want to maximize what my condo can earn." | "I want a stable monthly check, no surprises." |
Potential Short-Term Rental Income in Manila
A well-managed short-term rental can outperform a traditional long-term lease, especially in strong demand areas like Makati and near NAIA Airport.
| Property | Typical Long-Term Rent | Potential STR Revenue |
|---|---|---|
| Makati Studio | ₱25,000 | ₱50,000 – ₱75,000 |
| 1BR Makati | ₱35,000 | ₱70,000 – ₱120,000 |
| 3BR near NAIA | ₱45,000 | ₱90,000 – ₱160,000 |
Past performance does not guarantee future results. These ranges are illustrative based on observed market data and assume optimal setup, occupancy, and demand. Manila Stay does not guarantee any specific revenue. Actual performance depends on building rules, location, setup quality, seasonality, and demand.
