[7] [8]
The group is active in Europe, Middle East and Asia. It offers property management as GuestReady in the United Kingdom ( London, Manchester, Edinburgh), France ( Paris, Cannes, Lyon, Bordeaux), Portugal ( Lisbon, Porto), United Arab Emirates ( Dubai), Malaysia ( Kuala Lumpur) and Hong Kong.

Por exemplo, empresas como a Hostmaker, a Sweet Inn e a Guest Ready contam com portfólios de milhares de apartamentos em toda a europa. O ponto importante em relação à situação atual é como a estrutura de gestão dessas agências permite anunciar os apartamentos em diferentes plataformas digitais simultaneamente. Para fazer isso, elas usam programas informáticos de gestão de propriedades, que são conhecidos em inglês como channel manager, e que é uma tecnologia usada há anos pela indústria hoteleira para poder comercializar o mesmo produto on-line (neste caso apartamentos) em diferentes canais como a Airbnb, a Homeaway e a Booking.com.[For example, companies like Hostmaker, Sweet Inn and Guest Ready have portfolios of thousands of flats across Europe.
