West Midlands

Local knowledge, national standards.

Home to the UK's second-largest city, the West Midlands is a hotspot for serviced accommodation. Corporate travellers flood the region for conferences and events, while ongoing regeneration projects are transforming entire neighbourhoods. Whether your property sits in central Birmingham or suburban Solihull, there is strong, year-round demand waiting to be captured.

  • Birmingham's conference venues and business district drive midweek corporate bookings
  • Coventry's cultural revival and university population fuel consistent occupancy
  • The NEC, Resorts World, and Birmingham Airport bring visitors 365 days a year
  • HS2 and city-centre regeneration are pushing property values and nightly rates upward
  • A large student and young professional population creates a reliable tenant pipeline

Local Demand

Moving a Lichfield property from self-managed to guaranteed rent

Lichfield owners who've been self-managing a property — whether on traditional AST or in the SA market — usually have an existing tenant or guest book to consider before switching to guaranteed rent. We handle the transition. Existing AST tenants can either be absorbed into the guaranteed-rent term (we take over the landlord side) or given proper notice; existing SA guests transfer cleanly so nobody loses an upcoming booking.

From the owner's perspective the changeover takes around 4-6 weeks for a typical Lichfield property: a property review, contract signing, takeover of any live commitments, and the first monthly payment landing on the agreed date. After that the property runs on a fixed schedule with no further admin from the owner.

Lichfield

The commercial mechanics

What we can pay depends on the property, not on a headline. Two identical-looking flats on the same street can support very different figures once layout, parking and access are taken into account.

Lichfield

How it runs day to day

Who carries which cost is written down before signature rather than discovered afterwards. Ambiguity there is where these arrangements go wrong.

Lichfield

Is this right for you?

It suits someone who values a predictable outcome over an occasional excellent month. If the excellent month is the point, a different model fits better.

Lichfield

Certificates, licensing and insurance

Deposit handling, where it applies, follows the statutory scheme. There is no discretion in it.

Lichfield

Where we draw the line

We do not lock owners into terms they have not read. If somebody wants a week to have the agreement looked over, they should take it.

Lichfield

Where to start

Questions are welcome before commitment, including the awkward ones about what happens when something goes wrong.

Your Questions

Lichfield questions, answered.

Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.

Does guaranteed rent suit every Lichfield property?

No. Where local demand will not support the fixed figure, we will say so rather than agree a number we cannot sustain. A deal that only works on paper helps nobody.

What about council tax and bills?

Which party carries which bill is set out in the agreement. It varies with the arrangement, so it is written down rather than assumed.

Do you inspect the property?

Yes, periodically, and you are told what was found.

Can I convert from fully managed to guaranteed rent?

Yes, and landlords move both ways. It is a conversation about what you want the property to do for you.
