Three Routes
How owners work with us.
Sell It Quietly
An off-market sale for owners who want privacy or a quick, certain exit. You pay nothing; the buyer pays our fee. How a quiet sale works →
Let It to Us
One lessee, one payment date: a company let in place of tenants, voids and arrears. How a company let works →
We Run It
Keep the property and the upside. Full management as serviced accommodation, from 20% of booking revenue, with a monthly statement. How management works →
Bishop Auckland
Before the board goes up
A property that has been listed and withdrawn carries that history with it. Starting off-market means the choice to list is still yours, untouched, if the quiet routes do not suit. Once a board goes up, the conversation is public. Before it does, you can compare a quiet sale, a company let and full management side by side, on paper, with nothing committed.

What happens on a quiet sale
Registering a property commits you to nothing. The details sit on our off-market register, investors on our list make any offer below open market value and a sale goes ahead only if you accept one.
Bishop Auckland
Choosing between the three
A property in good repair near steady business and leisure demand tends to suit management, where the owner shares in what it earns. A tired property that needs work before anyone could let it tends to suit the quiet sale as it is.

Letting it to us instead
Management means pricing, guest communication, cleaning, maintenance co-ordination and a monthly statement that shows every booking, fee and payment. The fee starts from 20% of booking revenue. A company let replaces tenants, voids and arrears with a single lessee and a single payment date. The sum is fixed for the term and paid whether or not anyone is staying.

Blocks, portfolios and new-build units
A converted building with several flats works like a small block: one agreement for the building, or management of each flat with one statement for the whole. Completed new-build units that are slow to sell can go on a company let while they are marketed, with a break clause so each can come back when a buyer appears.

Agents with a stalled instruction
Letting agents whose landlords want out of the long-let market can offer management or a company let as an alternative to selling. The landlord stays the agent's client throughout.

What we will ask for
Insurance needs to permit the use. A standard landlord policy may not cover a company let or serviced accommodation, so check with the insurer before we agree terms.
