Transparent fees. Public underwriting of modeled yield.
TropicBay Properties charges fees out of rental revenue for owners — and publishes the yield ranges investors underwrite to for every country we operate in.
For property owners
Management tiers.
Three tiers, all revenue-share (never flat-fee). Pick the level of operating support you need; nothing else on the invoice.
| Service | What's included | Rate |
|---|---|---|
Full-service property management | Acquisition support, dynamic pricing, multi-channel listings, housekeeping, guest comms, revenue reporting. | 20% of rental revenue |
Light-touch management | Listings, pricing, and revenue reporting. Housekeeping handled in-region by owner or partner team. | 12% of rental revenue |
Channel-only placement | Listings + dynamic pricing only. No on-the-ground team; suitable for owners with their own ops. | 6% of rental revenue |
Fees apply per villa, per month, against realized rental revenue only. There are no setup fees, no minimum commitments, and no exit penalties.

How fees flow to investors
Where TropicBay's fee comes out of the investor's yield.
The 20% / 12% / 6% management tiers above apply to owners. For LP equity tickets, the investor receives a quarterly distribution net of those management tiers — i.e. the figures in the gauges above already represent what the LP actually receives, not pre-management revenue. Capital partners can see the full printed breakdown on the deal-by-deal term sheet.
