How the numbers are worked out

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.

Pingewood

What actually happens

Owner blocks go in the calendar as far ahead as possible, because a date held in advance costs nothing and a date held late costs a booking.

Pingewood

Who gets the most from it

Portfolio owners tend to find it simplest, because consolidated reporting removes the per-property admin that makes a portfolio tiring.

Pingewood

Compliance, plainly

Anything that is the owner's statutory responsibility stays the owner's responsibility, and the agreement says which items those are.

Pingewood

What we won't do

We do not lock owners into terms they have not read. If somebody wants a week to have the agreement looked over, they should take it.

How to begin

Questions are welcome before commitment, including the awkward ones about what happens when something goes wrong.

Your Questions

Before you get in touch — Pingewood.

Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.

Do you need a key holder in Pingewood?

No. Access is handled with a key safe or a smart lock, and we manage the codes. You do not need to be nearby.

What insurance do I need?

Standard residential landlord insurance does not usually cover short-let use. You will need a policy written for it, and we will tell you what to ask for before we list.

How do you handle check-in?

Self check-in with instructions sent ahead of arrival, and a real person contactable if something goes wrong. It is more reliable than meeting guests at a door at 11pm.

Is there a minimum term?

There is a term in the agreement and it is discussed before signing. We would rather turn down a property than sign someone into something that does not suit them.
