What we do here
Our services in Berry Hill
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.
Berry Hill
How we price it
Rate-setting is a daily job. Lead time, competing supply, day of week and local demand all pull in different directions, and the gap between an averagely-priced calendar and a well-priced one is not small.
Berry Hill
What actually happens
Guest messages get answered quickly because response time affects placement on most channels. It is a ranking factor, not just good manners.
Berry Hill
Is this right for you?
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.
Berry Hill
The compliance side
Where a council requires planning consent for a particular use, that is a question for the council and not for us to answer on their behalf. We will point an owner at the right place.
Berry Hill
Things we don't do
We do not take on property we do not think will work. Turning something down costs us a fee and saves an owner a year of disappointment.
Berry Hill
Getting started
Send the property details and any photographs or an online link. That is usually enough for a first view on whether it is worth going further.

Your Questions
Berry Hill: the practical questions.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Can you manage more than one Berry Hill 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.
