What we do here
Our services in Ancoats
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.
Ancoats
How the figure is reached
We price against live availability, not against last year's spreadsheet. The market a property competes in changes week to week, and a rate that was right in March is rarely right in October.
Ancoats
The process, step by step
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.
Ancoats
Who gets the most from it
It works best where the owner wants a clear line between ownership and operation. Where somebody wants to stay closely involved day to day, the arrangement tends to create friction rather than remove it.
Ancoats
Compliance, plainly
Insurance written for standard residential letting usually will not cover the intended use. It is worth checking before rather than discovering after.
Ancoats
What we won't do
We do not advise on finance or tax. Those are jobs for a broker and an accountant, and we will say so rather than improvise.
Ancoats
Where to start
The first step is an appraisal, and it is free. An owner who decides against it afterwards has lost nothing but an hour.

Your Questions
What people ask before starting in Ancoats.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What is the first step for an Ancoats landlord?
A free appraisal. We look at the property, the location and the local demand picture, and give you a straight answer on whether short-let management or guaranteed rent makes sense — including when it does not.
Do you charge for the appraisal?
No. There is no fee and no obligation.
How is my income paid?
Monthly, with a statement showing what was earned and what was deducted.
What if my property needs work first?
We will say so. If the work is worth doing we can introduce you to the trades we use; if the property would be better sold as-is, we will say that too.
