Your property. Managed with care.
Rooms and co-living is our speciality. We also take on rental flats and apartment buildings, from a single property.
BoVita takes over the complete management of individually let rooms, from ongoing letting through the operation of shared spaces to owner reporting. For owners, real estate companies and developers, including existing properties.
No commitment, no cost.

Own portfolio of furnished rooms. Member of HEV Aargau.
A room house is not an ordinary property
Each room is let individually, communicated individually, billed individually. Instead of one tenancy per apartment you run many, plus the operation of the shared spaces and daily living together. The usual three to five percent of a classic management fee is designed for apartments with long tenancies. A room house is operationally in a different league.
Frequent tenant changes and ongoing re-letting.
Minimum rental periods and professional, prompt re-letting.
A poor-fit tenant can disrupt the atmosphere of the whole house.
Careful applicant screening for creditworthiness and fit within the flatshare.
Every unplanned change costs several thousand francs and ties up time.
A well-run operation that avoids vacancies and keeps effort away from you.
This is how we actively reduce fluctuation instead of just managing it.
Short, anonymous changes become stable occupancy.
Why BoVita
You hand your property to someone else. Here is what you can rely on.
Hands-on practice, not theory
We operate furnished rooms ourselves and are property owners, and we know the workload from daily business. We do not manage anything we cannot do ourselves.
Transparent and legally compliant
Always on behalf of the owner, with a clear fee structure instead of a hidden mark-up. Deposits held correctly under Swiss tenancy law.
Reachable and traceable
A fixed contact person and an owner dashboard with an always current view of occupancy, payments and open items.
Specialised, broadly set up
From a single let room to an apartment building, with the same digital, efficient processes.
We treat every property as if it were our own. Because that is exactly what we do.
Jens Herbst
Founder of BoVita
Part of a strong partner network
We work with established Swiss partners so that letting and tenant support run smoothly.
- gocaution.ch for rental deposit solutions, blocked account or deposit insurance as the tenant prefers
- Swisscaution as a further option for the rental deposit
- Helvetia as insurance partner
- ProCare for required tenant insurance
Packages that grow with you. From back office to full operation.
You choose how much of the operation sits with us. We show you in advance how your fee is calculated, in writing and without obligation.
Accounting and collection
Operators and owners who run the operation themselves but want finances, collection and billing cleanly outsourced.
Fee: flat rate per room
- Rent collection and dunning per room
- Ongoing accounting of the property
- Utility billing per room and shared
- Payment transactions and deposit handling
- Monthly statement to the owner
Room-based base fee per month, staggered by number of rooms. No hourly charge for the standard back office, plannable and fixed.
Full operation
Everything runs, you only see the reporting.
Owners and operators who hand over the complete co-living operation. The basic idea: you own it, we run the operation.
Fee: flat rate per room plus a fee per change
- Everything from Accounting and collection
- Resident support and communication as the first point of contact
- Move-in and move-out management including room handovers
- Coordination of cleaning, maintenance and minor upkeep
- Owner platform with ongoing reporting (occupancy, finances, cases), included as standard, no surcharge
- A fixed contact person at BoVita
Room-based base fee, higher than the back office because it is full operation. Plus a fee per room change for the operational effort and a transparent hourly rate for special effort beyond the standard. We list all three building blocks separately in the offer.
Operator and portfolio
Real estate companies, developers and operators with several locations or an entire co-living portfolio.
Fee: portfolio terms per room
- Everything from Full operation, across multiple properties
- Consolidated portfolio reporting and location comparison
- Onboarding of new properties as a repeatable process
- Defined service levels and escalation paths
- A strategic contact person for occupancy and operating concept
Portfolio conditions based on the full operation logic, with a volume scale across the total number of rooms. One shared mandate instead of many individual contracts. The calculation per property stays transparently shown.
Rental management
Owners who hand over the commercial management but want to make technical decisions themselves.
Fee: percentage of rental income
- Rent collection and dunning
- Ongoing accounting of the property
- Annual utility billing
- Tenant correspondence and contract administration
- Deposit and payment transactions
- Periodic reporting to the owner
In the market, management fees typically sit at 4 to 5 percent of the net target rental income. Because we work digitally and lean, we deliberately sit below that. Your rate depends on property size and condition and is fixed before the contract.
Full property management
Effort turns into calm. Commercial and technical in one hand.
Owners and real estate companies who want a real full mandate: commercial, technical and with fixed support.
Fee: percentage of rental income
- Everything from Rental management
- Technical management: upkeep, repairs, tradesperson coordination
- Property inspections and condition documentation
- Steering of renovation and maintenance projects
- Owner platform with ongoing reporting (finances, cases, property status), included as standard, no surcharge
- A fixed contact person and defined response times
In the market, fees for full management typically sit at 4 to 5 percent of the net target rental income. We work digitally and efficiently and deliberately sit below that. Technical projects such as renovations are remunerated by a separately agreed model, the management rate is fixed before the contract.
We do not quote shop-window prices that would not fit your property anyway. Instead you see the calculation path before we speak for the first time.
Your fee comes from three building blocks: a room-based base fee, a fee per room change and an hourly rate for special effort. What moves the rate: number of rooms, turnover rate, depth of support.
Your fee is, as is customary in the market, a percentage of the net target rental income, typically 4 to 5 percent. What moves the rate within this corridor: property size, condition, tenant mix and number of units. There is no binding industry tariff, we calculate your rate individually. Because we work digitally and lean, we deliberately sit below the market rate.
Book a short initial call. Afterwards you receive a concrete, non-binding offer with a fixed rate for your property, in writing.
Letting and re-letting
A standalone service, addable to any mandate in both tracks and also bookable on its own. It covers marketing and listings, viewings and applicant selection, creditworthiness checks, contract conclusion and handover. For co-living at room level, for properties at flat level.
Occupancy is its own work and is paid for separately, so that your ongoing fee stays lean.
A one-time fee per successful letting, separate from the ongoing management fee. In the market, around 1 to 1.5 net monthly rents per unit are customary for this. We deliberately sit below that, at around half a net monthly rent. Example: at a net rent of CHF 2000 that is a one-time fee of around CHF 1000, whereas the market would be CHF 2000 to 3000. We name the exact rate firmly in the offer.
Both in your portfolio? We combine rooms and classic properties into one mandate.

Frequently asked questions
We come from the most demanding form of letting, the individually rented room, and we work digitally and lean. For you that means: one fixed contact, fast availability, transparent accounting and an owner dashboard with an always current view of your property. We bring the same care to managing apartments and multi-family buildings.
Yes. Our speciality is rooms and co-living, but we equally take over the full commercial, technical and administrative management of classic rental properties. Whoever runs the high frequency of a room house efficiently runs an apartment management with even more ease.
Yes. Whether a single house, an apartment or a whole portfolio, we tailor the scope of services to your property. A single mandate is just as welcome with us.
We work with a transparent, comprehensible model instead of shop-window prices. For rooms a room-based base fee plus a fee per room change, for classic properties the market-typical percentage of the net target rental income, where we deliberately stay below the usual level. We name your fixed rate after a short initial call, in writing and without obligation.
Straightforward. We take over files and tenancies, set up the digital processes and ensure a clean transition without interruption for you and your tenants. We keep the effort on your side minimal.
Fair and without long commitment. We want to keep you through performance, not through contract clauses. We agree the exact conditions transparently before the contract starts.
No, and that would be unrealistic for any serious provider. We actively reduce vacancy and fluctuation, through minimum rental periods, careful applicant screening and professional marketing. We deliberately give no occupancy or return guarantee.
Every applicant is checked for creditworthiness, references and fit. Especially in a flatshare this decides the atmosphere in the whole house. This is how we avoid conflicts and ensure stable, calm tenancies.
Yes. Through the owner dashboard you see occupancy, rent receipts, open items and the ongoing reporting at any time. Transparency is standard with us, not a surcharge.
Yes. We offer letting and re-letting as a standalone service: marketing and listings, viewings, applicant screening, contract and handover. Addable to any mandate or bookable on its own.
Many companies look for furnished housing for employees. Through our corporate channel we bring this demand to your rooms and at the same time relieve the HR departments. This improves occupancy, without us guaranteeing an occupancy.
