The commercial mechanics

We would rather hold a rate and lose a night than discount into a weekend that was always going to fill. Which of those applies is a judgement made on live data, not a rule.

Edgbaston

What actually happens

Reporting is monthly and it shows the deductions as well as the income. A statement that only shows the good number is not a statement.

Edgbaston

Where this fits, and where it doesn't

An owner who has been let down before usually wants to know what happens when something goes wrong rather than what happens when it goes right. That is the correct question to ask.

Edgbaston

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.

Edgbaston

Where we draw the line

We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.

Edgbaston

How to begin

An initial conversation is worth more than a form. Most of what matters — constraints, timing, what the owner actually wants — does not fit in a field.

Your Questions

What Edgbaston landlords ask us.

Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.

Do you need a key holder in Edgbaston?

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.
