How the fee calculation works
Management fee = accommodation revenue × package percentage
For illustration only, assume your accommodation price is IDR 100,000 and the platform adds an example guest service fee of IDR 15,000. In this example, the guest pays IDR 115,000. The IDR 15,000 service fee is an assumed amount, not a fixed Airbnb fee or rate. For Inspired Branding, the 15% management fee is calculated on IDR 100,000:
- Accommodation price set for the property
- IDR 100,000
- Example guest service fee added on top (assumed amount)
- + IDR 15,000
- Total paid by the guest
- IDR 115,000
- Accommodation revenue used to calculate the management fee
- IDR 100,000
- Bukit Vista management fee: 15% × IDR 100,000
- IDR 15,000
- Owner’s share: 85%, before taxes and operating expenses
- IDR 85,000
The guest service fee shown here is an example only; actual platform charges vary. Any guest service fee added on top is excluded from the accommodation revenue shared between Bukit Vista and the owner. The owner’s IDR 85,000 share is before applicable taxes and property operating expenses.
What does the management fee cover?
Your fee covers the services in your selected package, including property marketing, pricing, booking enquiries, guest communication and performance reporting through BV GO. Inspired Investment also includes management of daily operations.
Managing operations means coordinating the work. It does not mean Bukit Vista absorbs the property’s staff salaries, utilities, supplies, maintenance or other running costs. Compare packages by the work included, the responsibilities you retain and the expenses charged separately.
Which costs are separate from the management fee?
Any platform service fee added on top of the accommodation price is paid by the guest and excluded from the management-fee calculation. Applicable taxes and property operating expenses are separate from the management fee. Running costs may include staff salaries, utilities, cleaning supplies, laundry, pool and garden upkeep, maintenance and repairs, depending on your property and operating arrangement.
Your proposal will explain the expected costs, who pays them and how they appear in your financial reporting. Any separately priced services should also be identified before you sign.
How are management fees and owner proceeds calculated?
Your package percentage is applied to the property’s accommodation revenue. Any platform service fee charged to the guest on top of the accommodation price is excluded. For Inspired Branding, Bukit Vista receives 15% and the owner’s share is 85% of accommodation revenue, before taxes and operating expenses.
The owner’s share is accommodation revenue minus the management fee. Final owner proceeds also account for applicable taxes and property operating expenses. The package percentage is a management fee; it is not a share of the owner’s final profit.
How will I understand the full cost before signing?
Your proposal should identify the management fee, any platform charges and who pays them, applicable taxes, estimated operating expenses and any separately priced services. We will discuss the assumptions and property conditions that affect those estimates, so you can understand the expected deductions and amount remaining for you.
When will I receive my owner proceeds?
For Inspired Investment, the monthly profit and loss report accounts for the agreed management fee and property expenses. Remaining owner proceeds are scheduled for transfer by the 5th of the following month; bank processing may affect when the funds arrive.
For marketing partnerships, platform split payments may be available where supported and follow the platform’s payment schedule. Your proposal will confirm the arrangement for your property.
Can owner proceeds be paid to an international bank account?
Availability depends on the destination country, bank and payment route. Settlement is in IDR, with any currency conversion agreed separately. Our finance team will confirm the available method, charges and expected timing for your account.
Which package includes the Money Back Guarantee?
The guarantee applies only to eligible Inspired Investment partnerships. If performance falls below the agreed benchmark during the first 3 months, eligible management fees may be refunded, subject to the guarantee terms.
Your agreement confirms eligibility, the benchmark and refund terms. The guarantee does not promise owner profit or investment returns, and it does not mean all property costs are refunded.
