Financial analysis
· Brixfox Standard · Non-resident · Fully managed
Fully managed is the Brixfox Standard shown on every card: a full-service manager whose commission includes the OTA/channel listing (not the cleaning cost — changeovers are funded by guest cleaning fees; you bear the residual). Self-managed drops the commission but pays the OTA host fee, staff/local operations and your own time directly. Both scenarios divide the SAME gross revenue — the toggle changes the cost stack, not the revenue. That revenue is observed from actively-operated comps, so self-managed assumes you match their performance.Both scenarios share the same projected revenue — the toggle changes who runs the property and what that costs, not what it earns.
Net yieldNet operating income ÷ all-in investment. After local operating taxes; before home-country personal tax and financing costs. Modelled from observed market performance of comparable Airbnb listings.

Gross revenue is identical in both scenarios (the comps' observed performance); the Villa Scorecard and risk panels elsewhere on the page always quote the fully-managed Brixfox Standard.

Data Sources & Methodology

ROI calculations use verified Brixfox Intelligence rental data. Operating costs are modelled per line — management or self-managed OTA + staff/local operations, cleaning residual, utilities & insurance, local taxes — with every rate editable in the Financial analysis P&L above. Gross revenue is identical in both management scenarios. Dubai has no rental-income or annual property tax; a one-off 4% DLD transfer fee applies at purchase. Market factors in Dubai may impact actual yields.
