The team is professional, responsive, and truly understands what it takes to manage short-term rentals effectively.
I’ve been incredibly lucky with Alex Taylor: professional, friendly, and always helpful. He’s handled everything brilliantly - I’d give him 6 stars if I could.
For the past year, my Houst contact has been incredibly helpful - coordinating repairs, upgrades, and even being on-site when needed. Super reliable and accommodating.
The staff is available 24/7. Messages sent are replied to very quickly. The information about the properties is detailed and clear. Everything goes very smoothly.
The house is well maintained and clean, the dashboard provides up to date and historical information & the guests are taken care of.
I have had a brilliant experience renting my property through Houst. Everyone has been very hands on and contactable which has really put me at ease.

Before you list, check Dubai’s Holiday Homes rules under the Department of Economy & Tourism (DET/DTCM). Compliance typically covers permits/classification, building/HOA by-laws, safety and taxes/records.
• Permits & permissions: Register as an operator/owner and obtain a Holiday Home permit for each unit via DET/DTCM; keep the permit/QR displayed. Follow your building/HOA rules (guest access, quiet hours, visitor caps) — some towers restrict STRs.
• Safety/building: Provide working smoke alarms, extinguisher and first-aid kit; meet Civil Defence requirements; ensure valid gas/electrical CoCs. Verify guest IDs and keep a guest register per DTCM rules; display clear house rules, parking and waste info.
• Taxes/records: Charge and remit the Tourism Dirham fee (per bedroom per night) via the DET portal. Keep invoices and occupancy logs; apply 5% VAT if you are VAT-registered (or cross the AED 375,000 threshold).
