What is On Demand Management?
On Demand Management means you use the AB House client portal to run your property - reservations, accounts, service requests, and guest extras where relevant - while our team, lawyers, and accountants provide local backup. You stay in control; we supply tools and services when you need them.
Is short-term holiday letting still viable on the Silver Coast?
Some properties still perform well, but many owners face higher platform fees, compliance costs, and seasonality. AL registration (RNAL) and EU platform rules from 2026 increase the need to operate correctly. We help you assess your property honestly and consider alternatives such as long-term letting or a hybrid model.
Why consider long-term rental instead of holiday lets?
Long-term tenancies can reduce dependence on booking platforms, spread income across the year, and simplify operations. Tax treatment depends on your situation - our accountants can explain NRAU and other options. We do not guarantee specific returns; we help you structure a lawful, practical approach.
Do I need full property management?
No. The portal is built for On Demand Management and pay-as-you-go services. Full management from AB House remains available if you prefer a single ongoing contract and hands-off operations.
Which areas do you cover?
We are based in Caldas da Rainha and serve the Silver Coast (Costa de Prata), including Óbidos, Peniche, Foz do Arelho, Nazaré, São Martinho do Porto, Alcobaça, Lourinhã, and nearby West Coast locations.
