What we do here
Our services in Caledonian
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.
Caledonian
What drives the number
Pricing decisions are made against what the property can actually command, not against a target somebody would like it to hit. Aspirational pricing produces empty nights, not better ones.
Caledonian
What actually happens
Photography does more for a listing than almost anything else. A property shot badly gets fewer clicks at the same price, and no amount of rate-tuning recovers that.
Caledonian
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.
Caledonian
The paperwork that has to be right
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.
Caledonian
What we won't do
We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.
Caledonian
Getting started
There is no obligation at any stage before signature, and that is said plainly rather than buried.

Your Questions
What people ask before starting in Caledonian.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Do you need a key holder in Caledonian?
No. Access is handled with a key safe or a smart lock, and we manage the codes. You do not need to be nearby.
What insurance do I need?
Standard residential landlord insurance does not usually cover short-let use. You will need a policy written for it, and we will tell you what to ask for before we list.
How do you handle check-in?
Self check-in with instructions sent ahead of arrival, and a real person contactable if something goes wrong. It is more reliable than meeting guests at a door at 11pm.
Is there a minimum term?
There is a term in the agreement and it is discussed before signing. We would rather turn down a property than sign someone into something that does not suit them.
