01 · The quiet house

The house is fine. You just cannot see it.

A tap drips under the kitchen sink in February. The air conditioning gives up the week before guests arrive. Post stacks up behind the front door. None of it is a disaster on the first day.

It becomes one after three weeks.

  • A slow leak behind the washing machine
  • A shut-off valve nobody has turned
  • Damp after the first autumn storm
  • A delivery that needed signing
Nothing is urgent until it has been sitting there for three weeks.

02 · What we do

Four things, in this order.

  1. Custody

    Your keys live in a safe, not in a drawer. Every handover is signed and logged, and nobody enters without your word.

    Before the first visit
  2. Check

    Interior, terrace, shutters, water, air. Monthly on the Standard plan, every fifteen days on Superior.

    Monthly, or every fifteen days
  3. Report

    Photos, video and a written note of anything that changed, sent to your phone wherever you are.

    After every visit
  4. Repair

    We get the quote, you approve it, we let the trade in and check the work before it is paid.

    When something needs fixing

The same eight checks, every visit.

Written down, photographed, and sent to you even when nothing is wrong. This is the list we work from:

  1. Doors, windows and shutters closed and secure
  2. Water: taps, boiler, visible pipes, meter
  3. Electricity: board, trip switches, meter
  4. Air conditioning and heating run and tested
  5. Damp, stains, cracks, insects
  6. Fridge, freezer, washing machine, dishwasher
  7. Terrace, pool area, drains, outdoor furniture
  8. Post, parcels, plants, anything that looks wrong
03 · The turn

Turn the key.

The part owners describe best is not the inspection. It is the moment they stop wondering.

Scroll, and the report comes out.

06 · A month

A month, roughly.

  1. Week 1

    The check

    We walk the house with the same eight checks, photograph what has changed, and flag anything that needs a decision before it becomes a problem.

  2. Week 2

    The report

    Photos, a short video and a written note reach your phone. If something needs fixing you get a quote from a trade we know, not a surprise on the next invoice.

  3. Week 3

    The repair

    You approve it. We let the trade in, stay while the work is done, and check it before anyone is paid.

  4. Week 4

    The guests

    Check-in, linen, a key handed over at eleven at night. It is handled, written down, and in the file before you have to ask.

A printed inspection report, a phone showing photographs of a room, and a set of keys on a wooden table.
Photos, video and a written note, every visit
07 · The two of us
We look after your home the way we look after our own.
Paulina & Mario Founders, Key Rent Málaga

We live here. We answer our own messages, we open the door ourselves, and we tell you what we find, including the parts you would rather not hear.

08 · Questions

The questions that come first.

Is there a contract?

No. Every plan is without permanence, so you can change or stop when you need to.

What happens at two in the morning?

Your alarm is monitored around the clock. We coordinate the response, send someone if it is needed, and the report reaches you with photos.

We live abroad.

Most of our owners do. Checks, approvals and video calls all work remotely, and the report is written to be read on a phone.

Can I book a single visit?

Yes. One check or a key handover, without a monthly plan.

What if something big needs repairing?

We send the quote with photographs and a recommendation, and nothing goes ahead until you say yes. You choose the trade or you leave it to us.

What if I want to come and stay?

Tell us a week ahead and we will meet you at the door with the keys and the file, so you can see exactly what has been done and when.

Ask for a plan.

Tell us where the property is and what you need. The answer comes from the person who will actually look after it.
