Owner, Gry

Gry is self-employed and owns an apartment in Copenhagen, which she uses both privately and for work. She mainly lives and runs her business on Funen (Fyn), but regularly uses the apartment in Copenhagen for client meetings, overnight stays and visits to family. She wanted to get more out of the apartment by creating extra income, without giving up the option of using it herself when she needed to. With BY Administration’s time-limited rental solution, Gry found a flexible arrangement that made both possible.

The challenge: an apartment with several purposes

Gry’s apartment in Copenhagen is much more than an extra home. Although she mainly lives on Funen, the apartment is an important base when she is in Copenhagen for client meetings, work stays or family visits. She therefore needed a rental solution that could bring in income in the periods when the apartment stood empty, while keeping the flexibility she needed. A traditional long-term rental would tie up the apartment and not give her the freedom she needed. That made a flexible management solution the obvious choice.

Time-limited rental: extra income without compromising on flexibility

With BY Administration’s time-limited rental solution, Gry can make the apartment work for her without losing the flexibility she needs. When the apartment is not in use, BY Administration rents it out to guests looking for a stay in Copenhagen. The biggest advantage is that Gry keeps full control. She decides when the apartment is available for rental and can use it freely for client meetings, overnight stays or family visits. Meanwhile, BY Administration takes care of the time-consuming tasks, including communication with guests, managing bookings and practical tasks before and after each stay.

That way, the owner gets the best of both worlds: extra rental income and free access to the home. An important part of this flexibility is BY Administration’s channel manager system. Here Gry can easily see the calendar, block the dates when she wants to use the apartment herself and create her own reservations directly in the system. The calendar updates automatically across booking channels, which minimises the risk of double bookings and ensures a smooth experience for both owner and guests. While Gry keeps control of the calendar, BY Administration handles the whole rental process and makes sure everything runs efficiently.
