Property management in Valencia for apartment owners
You own a flat in Valencia and live somewhere else. We are your hands on the ground: tenant check-in and check-out, key holding, photo inventories, and the plumber when something breaks.
Why owners abroad need someone local
Letting a Valencia apartment from another country works until the day something needs a person at the door. A tenant arrives late, a boiler fails in January, or a departing tenant wants their deposit back the same week.
We cover that gap. ValenciaMove handles the practical side of your apartment between tenancies and during them, so you are not flying in for a set of keys. Finding the tenant stays with you or your agency; we look after the home itself. Already looking for help on the tenant side? Our renting guide for Valencia explains how the local market works.

Property management services in Valencia
Six tasks, done in person, with a written record you can keep.
Tenant check-in
We meet the incoming tenant, hand over the keys, read the meters and walk them through the apartment room by room.
Tenant check-out
We collect the keys, read the meters again and compare the apartment against the move-in inventory, so any deposit discussion starts from facts.
Photo inventory
A dated, photographed inventory at move-in and move-out: furniture, appliances, walls, floors and anything already damaged.
Key holding
We keep a spare set of keys in Valencia for emergencies, locksmith visits and contractors who need access.
Explaining the home
Boiler, air conditioning, water heater, recycling days, the building's rules: we show new tenants how the apartment works before they need to call you.
Maintenance and trades
When something breaks, we take the call, find the right trade, let them in and report back to you with photos before and after.
What this service does not cover
We do not find tenants, advertise listings or negotiate leases. We also do not run holiday rentals or short-stay turnovers. The service is built for owners with a long-term tenant, or an apartment standing empty between tenancies.
Why the inventory matters under Spanish law
Spain's Civil Code says a tenant must return the property as they received it, apart from normal wear and unavoidable damage. If nobody recorded its condition at the start, the law presumes the tenant received it in good condition, unless proven otherwise. A dated photo inventory is how you prove what "as received" meant.
For a home, the urban tenancy law (LAU) makes a deposit of one month's rent mandatory. If the balance is not returned within a month of the tenant handing back the keys, it starts earning legal interest. A clean check-out record helps you settle quickly.
The same law puts the repairs needed to keep the home habitable on the landlord, while small repairs caused by ordinary use fall on the tenant. The tenant must tell you about a needed repair as soon as possible. Having someone local to inspect and send the right trade is what makes those rules workable from abroad.
How it works

One check-out, a full tenancy changeover or standing maintenance cover: we confirm the tasks and the price in writing.
We report back after every visit
You get photos, meter readings and a short written summary after each check-in, check-out or callout.
Property management pricing
Every apartment and tenancy is different, so we quote per job or per arrangement after hearing what you need.
