Why choose Do.Ma

Four reasons owners stay with us

Management in our own name

We sign the contracts with guests ourselves, as if the flat were ours — which is why owners who live outside Italy can work with us just as easily. For you it means fewer worries and, with the cedolare secca (Italy's 21% flat tax on rental income), a real tax advantage: tax is worked out on the net, not on the gross.

Real revenue management

Every price is reviewed by hand, every day, looking at trade fairs, events and real demand across Bologna. Not a piece of software moving prices with no logic, the way many of our competitors do.

Paperwork included

CIN, CIR, GEIS, Alloggiati Web, ISTAT, tassa di soggiorno: short lets in Italy come with a long list of formalities, and they change often. We take care of them, with compliant contracts.

Transparency on costs

Cleaning is invoiced to the owner directly by the outside firm, with no hidden margin inside our fee. How we work out our fee
