What we do here
Our services in St James' End
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.

How the numbers are worked out
Pricing is reviewed continuously rather than monthly. A midweek gap three weeks out is a different commercial problem from a Saturday gap three days out, and they get different answers.
St James' End
What actually happens
Listings are reviewed rather than written once. What a property competes against changes, and copy that worked at launch is not automatically working a year later.
St James' End
Who gets the most from it
Where a property is genuinely unsuitable, saying so early costs one conversation. Saying so late costs both sides money.
St James' End
The paperwork that has to be right
Where a council requires planning consent for a particular use, that is a question for the council and not for us to answer on their behalf. We will point an owner at the right place.

Things we don't do
We do not market a property an owner has asked us to keep private. Confidentiality is not a premium service.
St James' End
Getting started
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
Before you get in touch — St James' End.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
How do you find guests in St James' End?
The property is listed across the major booking channels rather than one, so demand is not dependent on a single platform's algorithm. Direct enquiries also come through our own site.
What about wear and tear?
Short-let use is more intensive than a long let, and we plan for it. Consumables are replaced routinely; anything larger is raised with you with a quote before it is done.
Are you a letting agent?
We manage property as serviced accommodation. Maine Property Solutions Ltd is registered with the ICO and is a member of Property Redress; the company number is 16187542.
What happens if there is damage?
Damage is pursued through the booking channel's own resolution process and the security deposit where one applies. We document condition so a claim has something behind it.
