Old Basford
What drives the number
Channel mix affects price as much as season does. The same night can be worth different amounts depending on who is booking it and what that channel charges.
Old Basford
How it runs day to day
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.
Old Basford
Who this suits — and who it doesn't
It is a poor fit for a property that needs substantial work first. That is a different conversation and usually a different service.
Old Basford
The compliance side
Anything that is the owner's statutory responsibility stays the owner's responsibility, and the agreement says which items those are.
Old Basford
Things we don't do
We do not use a landlord's property to test something we have not done before.

How to begin
An owner with several properties should say so early — it usually simplifies things rather than complicating them.

Your Questions
Common questions about Old Basford.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Is my Old Basford property suitable for short lets?
It depends on location, layout, parking and what drives visitors to the area. We appraise before we commit and we will tell you if the answer is no — a property that does not suit short-let demand costs us both money.
What compliance do I need?
Gas safety certificate, electrical installation condition report, PAT testing where relevant, fire safety equipment, and appropriate insurance. Some councils also require planning permission or a licence for short lets — we will point you at your council's current position rather than guess it.
How is pricing set?
Nightly rates move with demand — day of week, season, local events, how far ahead the booking is. Static pricing is the most common reason a short let underperforms.
What if I want to stop?
There is a notice period, set out in the agreement before you sign. We do not lock landlords into terms they did not read.
