What we do here
Our services in Lister Hills
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.
Lister Hills
How we price it
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.
Lister Hills
What actually happens
Guest messages get answered quickly because response time affects placement on most channels. It is a ranking factor, not just good manners.
Lister Hills
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
Portfolio owners tend to find it simplest, because consolidated reporting removes the per-property admin that makes a portfolio tiring.
Lister Hills
Compliance, plainly
Certificates are held centrally and renewed before expiry rather than after a reminder from somebody else.
Lister Hills
The limits, stated up front
We do not advise on finance or tax. Those are jobs for a broker and an accountant, and we will say so rather than improvise.
Lister Hills
Where to start
The first step is an appraisal, and it is free. An owner who decides against it afterwards has lost nothing but an hour.

Your Questions
The questions we get most in Lister Hills.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
How does serviced accommodation management work in Lister Hills?
We take the property on, furnish and photograph it if it needs it, list it across the major booking channels, and handle pricing, guest vetting, check-ins, cleaning and turnaround. You get a monthly statement. You keep ownership and you keep control of the calendar rules.
Do I need to furnish the property first?
Not necessarily. If it is unfurnished we can arrange furnishing through the suppliers we use, and you approve the spec and the cost before anything is ordered. If it is already furnished we will tell you honestly what needs replacing and what does not.
What happens if the property sits empty?
On our fully managed service you carry the void, which is why we are candid at appraisal about whether a property suits short-let demand at all. If you want the void risk moved off you, that is what our guaranteed rent option is for.
How long does it take to go live in Lister Hills?
Typically about a week from paperwork to first listing, assuming compliance documents are in place. Gas safety, electrical safety, insurance and any licensing requirement have to be sorted before we can list, and we will tell you what is missing.
