Headington

The commercial mechanics

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.

Headington

How the work gets done

The first month is the noisiest. Rates are being calibrated against real booking behaviour rather than an estimate, and that is when the calendar tells you what the property is actually worth.

Headington

Who gets the most from it

First-time landlords are welcome, and they get told more than they ask for rather than less.

Headington

The compliance side

Certificates are held centrally and renewed before expiry rather than after a reminder from somebody else.

Headington

Things we don't do

We do not present an estimate as a measurement. Where a figure is an estimate, it is labelled as one.

Headington

The first step

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 Headington 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 Headington?

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.
