Tired, unmodernised or inherited property bought as it stands, with no agent fees.

How we price it
Nightly rates are not set once and left. They move with the day of the week, the season, how far ahead the booking sits and what else is available nearby at that moment. A static rate is the single most common reason a short let underperforms its potential.
Box Makers Yard
The process, step by step
Owner blocks go in the calendar as far ahead as possible, because a date held in advance costs nothing and a date held late costs a booking.
Box Makers Yard
Is this right for you?
Where a property is genuinely unsuitable, saying so early costs one conversation. Saying so late costs both sides money.

The paperwork that has to be right
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.
Box Makers Yard
The limits, stated up front
We do not present an estimate as a measurement. Where a figure is an estimate, it is labelled as one.
Box Makers Yard
The first step
There is no obligation at any stage before signature, and that is said plainly rather than buried.

Your Questions
What Box Makers Yard 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 Box Makers Yard 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.
