A tenancy that respects your investment.

You own a residential or commercial property and lease it to ELMStays as a managed operator. We become your long-term tenant — handling fitout, guests, and ongoing upkeep while you receive stable, reliable income.

Stable Rental Income

We lease your property on agreed fixed terms — no vacancy gaps, no chasing rent. You receive consistent, predictable income regardless of short-stay occupancy fluctuations.

Considered Fitout

Where fitout is needed, we invest in quality — coordinated with ELMDesigns where appropriate. Your property is maintained and enhanced, not diminished.

Proactive Communication

We believe in landlord relationships built on transparency. You'll always know what's happening with your property, from maintenance to occupancy trends.

On-the-ground care, aligned with our standard.

You're an experienced property manager, house manager, or hospitality operator. We collaborate with trusted local partners to cover properties across Melbourne and Bali — representing the ELMStays standard on the ground.

Bali-Based Operations

For our Bali properties, we work with on-the-ground house managers who handle day-to-day guest support, property checks, vendor coordination, and local issue resolution — under ELMStays operational guidelines.

Melbourne Property Cover

In Melbourne, we partner with trusted local managers for properties that require dedicated on-site oversight — from complex apartment setups to retreat-style spaces needing concierge-level care.

Consistent Brand Standards

All house manager partners are trained on ELMStays' housekeeping, guest communication, and presentation standards. Consistency is non-negotiable — across both markets.
