REFURB + MANAGEMENT · VALENCIA

First we get it ready. Then we run it.

If your flat needs work before it can be let, we do it and then we manage it. One conversation from start to finish, instead of chasing builders on one side and an agency on the other.

24 flats under management · Valencia, since 2022 · 5.0 on Google (25 reviews).

We come and see it, tell you what it needs and give it to you in writing.

The flat READY (example)

THE ORDER OF THINGS

Works first, management after.

  1. We see the flat

    Half an hour inside. We tell you what it needs, what can stay as it is and what actually changes the outcome.

  2. We give it to you in writing

    What gets touched, with which materials and in what order. Before you sign anything.

  3. We refurbish and furnish it

    The work is done by Cronovo, the family's refurbishment brand. You talk to the same people from start to finish.

  4. We run it and you get paid

    Tenants, rent collection, cleaning and repairs. You receive your rent every month and the yearly report.

The flat does not need to be perfect to start the conversation. Almost none of them are.

Who pays for what, before you ask.

*The cost of improvements shall be passed on as set out in annex II.

Not here.

Refurbishment is where the small print usually piles up. So we tell you all of it before signing, and in writing.

The works

We finance them and they are recovered through management, not through a payment from you up front. The exact terms go in your contract, in writing, before you sign.

What stays yours

The flat, and what is inside it when the contract ends. The refurbishment does not change owner: it stays in your home.

If you would rather not refurbish

Then we look at guaranteed rent or straight management. The refurbishment is an option, not a toll: if your flat does not need it, we say so.

THE SISTER BRAND

We do not subcontract the work.

Cronovo is our sister brand inside the same group. The same demand for finish and timeline you see in the flats we manage, applied to yours, and with one point of contact: nobody passes the ball between the person painting and the person letting.

DOES YOUR FLAT FIT?

Let’s see if your flat fits.

We let by the room, and that works very well with a certain kind of flat. We'd rather tell you in a minute than sign you a rent yours can't carry and end up doing a bad job. Six questions and you'll know.

Questions about the flat, not about you. And you see the result without leaving your number.

No lift is not a no. It only changes who we show it to.

If one is missing, it can be sorted. It is paperwork, not an obstacle.

IT FITS

Yours is the kind of flat we manage.

By size and area it's exactly the kind of flat we work with. What's left is the usual part: seeing it. Half an hour inside and we can talk numbers and contract.

And we already have full flats in your neighbourhood, so we're not starting from scratch: we know who to house.

  • We already have flats running in your area.
  • The size is the one that works best for us.

This is a first filter on what you've told us about the flat, not a final answer. A visit has the last word.

WHAT IS BEHIND IT

The same people who run it afterwards.

Antonio and Alan, father and son. Antonio brings the years of building work and dealing with owners; Alan, the operation. We have managed flats in Valencia since 2022, so the refurbishment is not designed by someone who leaves when it is finished: it is designed by whoever has to live with the result every month.

“Working with Alan gives you absolute peace of mind and confidence. […] you just receive your monthly payment and he takes care of everything else. […] they handle everything and you don’t have to worry about a thing.”
Mariela Andres Owner · Google review (Translated from Spanish)
“I have been working with Alkí for about two years and the truth is I am very satisfied. […] I admit I am a somewhat distrustful person by nature. Over time I have been able to confirm that I made the right decision.”
Joaquín Martínez Herraiz Owner · Google review (Translated from Spanish)
“Excellent service and professional treatment, with open and understanding communication. Always available by phone and genuinely concerned about the owner’s wellbeing.”

QUESTIONS

The questions about the works, first.

The ones that come up most when someone lets us touch their flat.

Who pays for the refurbishment?

We finance it and it is recovered through management, not through a payment from you up front. The exact terms go in writing in your contract, before you sign anything. If your case does not fit that arrangement, we tell you at the visit instead of closing it somehow.

And if I would rather not refurbish?

Then we look at guaranteed rent or straight management. The refurbishment is an option, not a condition: if your flat does not need it, we say so and we both save ourselves the work.

Does the refurbishment stay in my flat?

Yes. The flat is yours and so is what gets done inside it. It does not change owner when the contract ends.

Who does the work?

Cronovo does, the family's refurbishment brand, from the same group. You talk to the same people from start to finish, and whoever chooses the finishes is whoever then has to let the flat.

How long does it take?

It depends on what the flat needs, which is why we do not put a timeline here: yours goes in the written quote, with dates.

And while the work is going on?

While it is being refurbished there are no tenants and no rent: that is the uncomfortable part and we would rather say it. The full calendar goes in the same document.

THE NEXT STEP

Shall we give your flat a fresh start?

Antonio calls you, and he is the one who sees the work and signs. Half an hour in the flat and you leave with what it needs in writing, in what order, and what contract we can do.

  1. You write and Antonio answers, not an automated form.
  2. You arrange to see the flat, half an hour, whenever suits you.
  3. You get in writing what the flat needs and what we propose, with the calendar.
  4. If it works for you, we sign. And if not, it stops there: we do not chase you afterwards.

Antonio calls you in person, not a salesperson. If it does not work for you, it stops there: we do not chase you afterwards.
