What we do here
Our services in Meanwood
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.
Meanwood
The commercial mechanics
Rate-setting is a daily job. Lead time, competing supply, day of week and local demand all pull in different directions, and the gap between an averagely-priced calendar and a well-priced one is not small.
Meanwood
The process, step by step
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.
Meanwood
Who gets the most from it
First-time landlords are welcome, and they get told more than they ask for rather than less.
Meanwood
The compliance side
Deposit handling, where it applies, follows the statutory scheme. There is no discretion in it.
Meanwood
Where we draw the line
We do not chase volume for its own sake. A property taken on badly costs more than it earns.
Meanwood
How to begin
Send the property details and any photographs or an online link. That is usually enough for a first view on whether it is worth going further.

Your Questions
Meanwood questions, answered.
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 Meanwood?
We work across Meanwood 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.
