What we do here
Our services in Humberstone
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.
Humberstone
The commercial mechanics
We price against live availability, not against last year's spreadsheet. The market a property competes in changes week to week, and a rate that was right in March is rarely right in October.
Humberstone
How it runs day to day
Onboarding runs in a fixed order: compliance documents checked, the property photographed properly, listings written and published, pricing rules set, then live. Skipping the compliance step is how launches slip by a fortnight.
Humberstone
Is this right for you?
It suits someone who values a predictable outcome over an occasional excellent month. If the excellent month is the point, a different model fits better.
Humberstone
The compliance side
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.
Humberstone
What we won't do
We are not a building contractor. Where work is needed we introduce the trades we use, and the contract for that work sits between the owner and the trade, priced before it starts.
Humberstone
Getting started
The quickest starts are the ones where compliance paperwork is already to hand. It is worth gathering it before getting in touch.

Your Questions
The questions we get most in Humberstone.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What is the difference between fully managed and guaranteed rent?
Fully managed means you keep the upside and carry the voids; we take a percentage of what the property earns. Guaranteed rent means we pay you a fixed sum every month whether it is booked or not, and we carry the voids. One trades certainty for ceiling.
Do you cover the whole of Humberstone?
We work across Humberstone and the surrounding area. Whether a specific street suits short-let demand is a different question from whether we cover it, and the appraisal answers that one.
Who pays for cleaning and linen?
Cleaning is charged to the guest as a fee where the channel allows it. Anything not covered that way is set out in the agreement so there are no surprises on the statement.
What reporting do I get?
A monthly statement showing bookings, income, deductions and works. If you want to see the underlying calendar, ask and we will show you.
