What we do here
Our services in The Dings
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.
The Dings
What actually happens
Guest messages get answered quickly because response time affects placement on most channels. It is a ranking factor, not just good manners.
The Dings
Where this fits, and where it doesn't
It works for owners who are some distance away, because nothing about it requires them to be nearby.
The Dings
Compliance, plainly
Anything that is the owner's statutory responsibility stays the owner's responsibility, and the agreement says which items those are.
The Dings
What we won't do
We do not advise on finance or tax. Those are jobs for a broker and an accountant, and we will say so rather than improvise.
The Dings
Getting started
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
The Dings questions, answered.
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 The Dings?
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 The Dings property depends on the property, and we will say if neither is worth doing.
