What we do here
Our services in Boothen
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.
Boothen
How we price it
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.
Boothen
What actually happens
Maintenance is triaged rather than escalated. Most issues are small; the skill is knowing which ones are not and dealing with those before a guest is affected.
Boothen
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
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.
Boothen
The compliance side
Insurance written for standard residential letting usually will not cover the intended use. It is worth checking before rather than discovering after.
Boothen
The limits, stated up front
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.
Boothen
How to begin
We would rather spend longer on the first conversation and less on fixing a misunderstanding later.

Your Questions
The questions we get most in Boothen.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
How does serviced accommodation management work in Boothen?
We take the property on, furnish and photograph it if it needs it, list it across the major booking channels, and handle pricing, guest vetting, check-ins, cleaning and turnaround. You get a monthly statement. You keep ownership and you keep control of the calendar rules.
Do I need to furnish the property first?
Not necessarily. If it is unfurnished we can arrange furnishing through the suppliers we use, and you approve the spec and the cost before anything is ordered. If it is already furnished we will tell you honestly what needs replacing and what does not.
What happens if the property sits empty?
On our fully managed service you carry the void, which is why we are candid at appraisal about whether a property suits short-let demand at all. If you want the void risk moved off you, that is what our guaranteed rent option is for.
How long does it take to go live in Boothen?
Typically about a week from paperwork to first listing, assuming compliance documents are in place. Gas safety, electrical safety, insurance and any licensing requirement have to be sorted before we can list, and we will tell you what is missing.
