A worked example, not a Kyrosphere quotation

For illustration only: if collected rent were GHS 5,000 and an agreed management fee were 10% of collected rent, that fee would be GHS 500. The balance before any separately approved expenses or applicable taxes would be GHS 4,500. The percentage is hypothetical and is not our published fee or a claimed industry standard.

For short-let management, specify whether the fee is based on gross booking income or an amount after channel charges, how cleaning and maintenance are treated, and whether setup work is separate. Kyrosphere quotes the fee and scope for the named assignment before work starts. Ask for the same calculation using your proposed rent or booking income.
