What we do here
Our services in Ashley Down
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.

The commercial mechanics
Every rate change is a trade between occupancy and yield per night, and the right side of that trade depends on how much of the month is already committed.

What actually happens
Cleaning and linen are scheduled around the calendar rather than a fixed day. A same-day turnaround is routine and it is planned, not improvised.

Where this fits, and where it doesn't
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.

The compliance side
Licensing and planning requirements vary by council and they change. We check the current position for the relevant authority rather than assume a rule that was true somewhere else.

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.

Where to start
Getting in touch costs nothing and commits to nothing. That is not a sales line; it is how the process is set up.

Your Questions
What Ashley Down landlords ask us.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Can you manage more than one Ashley Down property?
Yes. Portfolio owners are a large part of what we do, and reporting is consolidated rather than one statement per unit.
Do you handle maintenance?
We triage and arrange it through vetted trades. We are not a building contractor — we make introductions to the trades we use and the work is between you and them, priced before it starts.
How quickly do you respond to guests?
Guest messages are handled throughout the day, every day. Response speed is a ranking factor on most channels, so it is in our interest as much as yours.
What sort of property works best?
Well-located two and three bedroom properties with parking tend to work hardest, but the honest answer is that it varies by area and we would rather appraise than generalise.
