Do.Ma was born in Bologna from a simple idea: anyone running a short let should be able to do it properly, not just list it online.
Do.Ma started in 2022 out of a self-taught path through property management: you begin with a first small group of flats and build, property after property, a way of managing them founded on attention to detail. Today we look after more than 15 properties in Bologna, owned by private individuals and by partita IVA holders (Italian VAT registration), each with its own rules and its own needs.
We do not treat properties as numbers on a spreadsheet: every home has its own story, its own owner, and deserves dedicated attention.
We handle prices, calendars and guest communication ourselves, rather than relying on software that decides on its own.
Clear monthly statements, every line explained, no hidden costs inside the fee.
Every owner receives a proposal calculated on their own property, never a standard rate that is the same for everyone.
To offer a complete service, we work with selected partners at every stage of the journey.
Our partner for renovations, when a property needs work before it can start earning.
Assesses feasibility at the land registry, handles procedures such as the change to category B/3, and offers a free review of utility contracts.
Our partner estate agency, for owners who are also considering a sale or a long-term let.
I publish open analysis on what I see every day managing flats in Bologna: real margins, fees that are badly explained, the tax treatment of short lets, buying mistakes that cost years of rental income.
These are the same arguments and the same tables I use with owners. Reading them is the quickest way to understand how I work, even before we speak. Please note that the articles are written in Italian.
“If someone manages your property for 15%, they are not doing everything they say”
“My industry in Italy is taxed like a tax haven”
“When does a short let not pay off?”
The first step is a free property visit: we come and see your property and talk it through with no obligation.
