What we do here
Our services in Little Chester
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.
Little Chester
The commercial mechanics
Every rate change is a trade between occupancy and yield per night, and the right side of that trade depends on how much of the month is already committed.
Little Chester
What to expect once it starts
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.
Little Chester
Who gets the most from it
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.
Little Chester
Compliance, plainly
The paperwork is dull and it is the part that protects an owner when something goes wrong. It gets done properly rather than quickly.
Little Chester
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.
Little Chester
The first step
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
Straight answers for Little Chester owners.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
What does Maine Property Solutions actually do day to day?
Pricing and channel management, guest communication from enquiry to checkout, cleaning and linen scheduling, maintenance triage, and monthly reporting. The parts that eat a landlord's evenings are the parts we take.
Who deals with problem guests in Little Chester?
We do. Guests are vetted before booking, house rules are set out in writing, and we handle any issue directly. You are not the phone number on the listing.
Can I still use the property myself?
Yes. Owner blocks go in the calendar and we work around them. Tell us early for peak dates so we are not turning away bookings we have already priced.
What are the fees?
Fully managed starts from 12% of booking income. Guaranteed rent is a fixed monthly figure instead. Which one is better for a given Little Chester property depends on the property, and we will say if neither is worth doing.
