Nicla Sinisi, property manager in Milan
About

One property manager, the whole apartment.

I'm Nicla Sinisi. I manage four short-let apartments in Milan, some mine and some belonging to other owners. Listing, pricing, guests, cleaning, paperwork: it all runs through me, on one system that keeps the moving parts together.

That's why I take on the whole apartment rather than single tasks. It's the only way I can stand behind the result on every place I look after.

How I work

Attention that shows

I'm across every stay from the first message to check-out: replies, arrival, cleaning, whatever goes wrong. Guests who feel looked after leave five stars, and those reviews are what fill the calendar months later.

The whole thing, off your desk

I don't sell single tasks. I take on the apartment itself, from the listing through to the paperwork.

Paperwork under control

Guest registrations, tourist tax, tax filings: I track every deadline, so your Milan short let stays on the right side of the rules.

Pricing that moves with demand

I adjust rates daily against demand, what's on in the city and the season. Filling the calendar is the easy part; filling it at the right price is the job.

My story

What drew you to hospitality?

I like making people feel at home, and I like a stay that runs without anyone having to worry about it.

What is your favourite part of this work?

Welcoming guests, tailoring the details, and the reaction when someone walks into a place that has clearly been looked after.

What is your main strength as a host?

Detail, fast replies, and owning the whole guest experience from check-in to check-out.

What has been your proudest moment as a host?

A review that singled out the care behind the stay, not just the apartment.
