Our story

From Ognartænastan to Vert

Vert started in 2018 under the name Ognartænastan. Since then the company has grown step by step, mainly through recommendations from owners whose homes we already look after. Today we look after 140+ holiday homes in the Faroe Islands, with our own cleaning staff, our own caretaker and a team that is here, where the homes are.
