MYCASAFORYOU is a new holiday rental advertising platform, founded by homeowners as a non-profit organization, and an economical, reliable, and secure alternative to the large multinational commission platforms. MYCASAFORYOU was created as a response and a viable alternative to the near-monopolistic position and terms of large online platforms, travel agents, and other intermediaries, who charge enormous commissions without delivering any value. We essentially cut out the middleman and give control over your villas and apartments back to you!
Just like you, we own and rent out our vacation homes to holidaymakers and tourists. With 25 years of experience in the vacation rental industry and after testing numerous platforms, we concluded that only a platform with an annual subscription model offers the best value for all parties.
Currently, almost all rental platforms operate exclusively on a commission model and lure homeowners with free listings, accounts, and unclear commission percentages or other fees. Only when the first bookings come in will the exact cost become clear. Homeowners see 20% to 35% of their rental income disappear into the platform, and many platforms even pass fees on to the traveler or person booking the property. Nowadays, there's hardly any alternative to these platforms, and they force homeowners to accept this commission model. The annual commission and platform fees can range from a minimum of €3,000 to as much as €20,000 per year. MYCASAFORYOU charges only an annual subscription of €250 per year, so if all homeowners en masse switch from these large platforms to MYCASAFORYOU and its subscription system, we can collectively take a stand against the large multinationals, and homeowners will regain full control over their property, rental income, booking schedule, type and number of guests, and which information is shared with governments.
We began developing our own new platform at the end of 2023. We primarily focused on the homeowner, designing, developing, and building the platform based on basic needs without unnecessary extras or other applications.
A simple platform with an annual subscription model! No commissions on other costs are charged to either the homeowner or guests, resulting in 20 to 30% lower rental prices, greater transparency, and direct contact.
The homeowner has complete control and always has direct contact with potential guests, controls bookings, manages their schedule, payments, and other rental terms. This results in greater transparency for both the homeowner and guests, a fairer revenue model, and lower rental rates for guests and tourists.
So, if you own a vacation home and are forced to pay exorbitant commissions and want to regain control over your own property, join us and list your property on MYCASAFORYOU.
