Rental Concierge
What We Actually Do:

Most people think renting in El Salvador means scrolling Facebook, calling random agents, and hoping for honesty.
That’s exactly what we eliminate.
The Rental Concierge service is designed for clients and foreigners who want safety, efficiency, and a trustworthy process from start to finish.
We don’t just “find a house.”
We represent the client, protect their interests, and manage the entire rental journey so they don’t get overpriced, misled, or stressed.


What we handle:

  • Needs analysis & qualification: We get clear on what the client truly needs, their lifestyle, budget, long-term plans, red flags to avoid, and what type of areas match them.

  • Full search + agent filtering: We contact only vetted, trustworthy owners and agents. We eliminate scammers, inflated prices, low-quality options, fake listings, and unprofessional contacts.

  • One point of contact: Clients don’t deal with 7 different agents. Everything flows through you clean, coordinated, structured.

  • Showings & coordination: We book showings, manage schedules, follow up with owners, negotiate conditions, and make sure everything is transparent.

  • Tenant protection We avoid: Contracts that are unfair, Unrealistic deposits, Price changes last minute, “tourist pricing,” and unreliable landlords.

  • Communication & negotiation support: We translate, mediate, and align expectations so both sides understand each other. No frustrations. No drama. No misunderstandings.

  • Legal + contract support: We ensure clients understand what they’re signing, verify the owner, and check for red flags in the agreement.

Owner Rental Concierge

We Bring You Reliable, Pre-Qualified Foreign TenantsMost owners in El Salvador love renting to foreigners.
But the reality is: They don’t know how to reach them, screen them, or manage the process without wasting time.
That’s where we come in.We connect your property to quality international clients who value professionalism, pay on time, respect your home, and stay longer.This is not real estate.
This is not property management.

This is premium tenant placement, fully managed for you.


What we actually do for owners:

  • Tenant Qualification & Screening: We don’t send you random inquiries from Facebook. Every client is personally interviewed, verified, and screened before they ever see your property. We filter out: time-wasters, price shoppers, uncommitted renters.

  • Full Client Representation: Foreigners have different expectations, and most owners are not prepared to manage them. We guide the client, set realistic expectations, explain local norms, and avoid misunderstandings and drama.

  • Full Coordination for You: No need to answer 10 messages, coordinate showings, or chase follow-ups. We handle: scheduling, viewing coordination, communication, negotiation, and contract support.

  • Verified foreigners who value quality: Our clients are professionals, entrepreneurs, digital nomads, families relocating for safety and lifestyle, long-term expats with stable income.
