How does guaranteed rent work in Montreux?
Riviera Host leases your apartment on a fixed-term basis and pays you a guaranteed monthly rent regardless of how many nights are booked. We assume all occupancy risk, manage the property fully, and return it to you in the same condition. You receive a predictable income every month — no peaks, no gaps.
How much guaranteed rent can I expect for my Montreux apartment?
Amounts are based on your apartment's size, location, condition, and long-term rental comparables in the Montreux market. A 2-bedroom apartment in central Montreux typically qualifies for CHF 2,800–4,200/month guaranteed.

What is the difference between guaranteed rent and managed rentals?
With guaranteed rent, Riviera Host pays you a fixed amount monthly regardless of bookings — zero income risk. With our
managed rental model (20% commission), your income varies with occupancy but averages 30–40% higher over a full year. Guaranteed rent suits owners who prioritise predictability over maximising returns. See our
Montreux income guide for full comparisons.
Do I need to do anything if I choose guaranteed rent?
No. Once the agreement is signed, Riviera Host handles everything: guest bookings, check-in/check-out, cleaning, maintenance coordination, platform management, legal compliance, and tourist tax collection. You receive a monthly bank transfer and an optional quarterly report.
Can I switch from guaranteed rent to managed rental later?
Yes. At contract renewal, you can switch to our commission-based managed model. Many owners start with guaranteed rent to understand the process and switch to managed rental once they're comfortable with short-term rental income variability.
