Utami here from Bukit Vista’s marketing team! I’m thrilled to announce the success of our Round Table Talk at the Yogyakarta base, a clear testament to our commitment to enhancing property knowledge and nurturing strong connections with both our academic partners and property stakeholders. On February 28, 2024, an enriching session unfolded as we hosted esteemed faculty and students from UGM’s Property Management & Valuation program — Edmund, Anindya, and Wieyza — alongside Ibu Irta, a distinguished property owner. This gathering was not just an event; it was a vibrant exchange of insights and experiences, bridging the gap between academic theory and the real-world practice of property management, and further solidifying the crucial role of property knowledge in our industry’s advancement.
Engaging with Tomorrow's Property Experts
During the Round Table Talk event, Edmund engaged deeply with the Bukit Vista team to understand the nuances of property listing management. He learned about the steps necessary for listing a property, from submission to enhancing its appeal on platforms like Airbnb. This included insights into photography, content creation, and the importance of transparency. Hafidz, the Content Creator Supervisor at Bukit Vista, played a crucial role in enlightening Edmund about the intricacies of property listing management. His comprehensive explanations covered everything from how to effectively register and highlight a property on platforms like Airbnb to the strategic content creation that resonates with potential guests.
Similarly, Anindya and Wieyza discovered how Bukit Vista employs AI to enhance guest experiences, reflecting on the broader implications for property knowledge and valuation education. They recognized the integration of technology and management as critical for advancing in the field, particularly in the context of asset valuation and property investment consulting, which are increasingly pertinent in Bali’s dynamic market. Their experience underscored the value of practical knowledge and industry engagement, fostering a deeper appreciation for the intricacies of property management and the evolving landscape of real estate valuation.
More Than Property Knowledge: A Broader Conversation
Edmund, Anindya, and Wieyza, enthusiastic students from the Property Management and Valuation Program at UGM, shared not only their academic aspirations but also their personal journeys and experiences. The conversation delved into the vibrant university life at UGM, spotlighting the unique orientation programs designed to welcome junior students. These programs, as described, are more than mere introductions to academic life; they are a gateway to forming lasting friendships, understanding diverse perspectives, and embarking on a journey of self-discovery and growth.
The dialogue further expanded to include recommendations for exploring Yogyakarta, a city rich in culture and history. The students eagerly suggested Dea from the Bukit Vista team explore the Bantul area, known for its breathtaking landscapes and warm, welcoming community. Their enthusiasm was palpable as they spoke of canoeing on the Bantul River, an activity that offers not just an adrenaline rush but also a moment of tranquility amidst nature’s untouched beauty.
Insights from a Property Owner: Ibu Irta's Experience
During a thoughtful morning discussion between Ibu Irta and Bukit Vista’s PR team, led by Dea, Ibu Irta shared her valuable insights and feedback from her journey as the owner of Omah Gerjen 29, managed by Bukit Vista. Her perspective shed light on key operational strategies, highlighting the importance of adaptive pricing strategies to match the seasonal demand and the necessity for clear communication and security measures during property inspections. These insights underscored a shared goal of transparency and trust in property management, emphasizing the need for Bukit Vista to continuously evolve its practices to meet the expectations of property owners and guests alike.
Ibu Irta also recounted experiences of exceptional hospitality extended to her guests, illustrating the depth of care and attention to detail that defines the service ethos at Bukit Vista. From accommodating early check-ins to resolving unique guest needs with compassion and efficiency, her actions exemplify the commitment to guest satisfaction that Bukit Vista champions. These stories not only highlight the partnership’s success in creating memorable stays for guests but also reinforce the value of a personalized and engaging approach to hospitality, contributing to a stronger, community-focused property management model.
