What we do here
Our services in Abington
Serviced accommodation management
We run the property as a premium short let -- listing, pricing, guests, cleaning and reporting.
Guaranteed rent
A fixed monthly figure whether the property is occupied or not, with the void risk on us.
Sell a property that needs work
Tired, unmodernised or inherited property bought as it stands, with no agent fees.
Property investment and sourcing
Off-market stock that needs work, matched to budget, area and appetite for works.
Abington
How the numbers are worked out
We would rather hold a rate and lose a night than discount into a weekend that was always going to fill. Which of those applies is a judgement made on live data, not a rule.
Abington
What actually happens
Reporting is monthly and it shows the deductions as well as the income. A statement that only shows the good number is not a statement.
Abington
Who gets the most from it
The owners who get most from it are the ones who tell us their constraints early: dates they need, works they will not fund, tenants they will not take. Constraints are easy to design around and awkward to discover.
Abington
Compliance, plainly
Fire safety equipment is specified by use, not by preference. Getting it wrong is the kind of mistake that only surfaces at the worst moment.
Abington
Things we don't do
We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.
Abington
Where to start
There is no obligation at any stage before signature, and that is said plainly rather than buried.

Your Questions
Abington questions, answered.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What is the difference between fully managed and guaranteed rent?
Fully managed means you keep the upside and carry the voids; we take a percentage of what the property earns. Guaranteed rent means we pay you a fixed sum every month whether it is booked or not, and we carry the voids. One trades certainty for ceiling.
Do you cover the whole of Abington?
We work across Abington and the surrounding area. Whether a specific street suits short-let demand is a different question from whether we cover it, and the appraisal answers that one.
Who pays for cleaning and linen?
Cleaning is charged to the guest as a fee where the channel allows it. Anything not covered that way is set out in the agreement so there are no surprises on the statement.
What reporting do I get?
A monthly statement showing bookings, income, deductions and works. If you want to see the underlying calendar, ask and we will show you.
