What we do here
Our services in Tilehurst
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.
Tilehurst
How we price it
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.
Tilehurst
The process, step by step
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.
Tilehurst
Who gets the most from it
First-time landlords are welcome, and they get told more than they ask for rather than less.
Tilehurst
Compliance, plainly
Fire safety equipment is specified by use, not by preference. Getting it wrong is the kind of mistake that only surfaces at the worst moment.
Tilehurst
Things we don't do
We do not quote a figure before somebody has looked at the property. A number produced from a postcode is a marketing device, not an appraisal.
Tilehurst
Where to start
The quickest starts are the ones where compliance paperwork is already to hand. It is worth gathering it before getting in touch.

Your Questions
What Tilehurst landlords ask us.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
Do you need a key holder in Tilehurst?
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.
