Three Routes
Sell, let or hand it over.
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
A fixed monthly sum under a company let agreement, paid on the same date whether the property is occupied or empty. How a company let works →
We Run It
We run it, you keep it: pricing, guests, cleaning and a monthly statement, from 20% of booking revenue. How management works →
Bishops Stortford
Why sell or let before it is listed
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. A listing sets a price in public and any reduction is public too. A private conversation sets nothing until you choose a route and see the terms in writing.
Bishops Stortford
The off-market sale, step by step
Your solicitor handles the sale as normal once an offer is accepted. Before that, the property is on our off-market register, offers come from investors on our list at below open market value and the buyer pays our fee.

Where each route fits best
An owner who is unsure is better served by comparing the routes on paper than by choosing one on instinct. Each route is set out in writing before anything is agreed.
Bishops Stortford
The letting routes
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. If the property needs furnishing for serviced accommodation, that is agreed up front. A company let or management begins once the certificates and consents are in place.
Bishops Stortford
Whole buildings and several homes
A large scheme or a completed phase can come to us in stages as units complete, so an agreement follows the build programme instead of a single date. One counterparty for many properties means one set of terms, one payment date and one point of contact, however many homes are involved.

If you are the agent
An agent can introduce a property on the client's behalf with the client's agreement. We talk to the agent first and never approach the client around them.
Bishops Stortford
What to have ready
A leasehold flat needs its lease, because some leases restrict how the flat may be let. The service charge and ground rent details help too.
Bishops Stortford
Where to begin
The first conversation is about what you want to happen. The route comes second and the terms third, in writing.
