Off-Market in Deal
Selling in Deal? Talk to us before an agent.
No board outside and no portal listing. Owners in Deal can sell off-market, let to us for a fixed monthly sum or have us run the property and decide which before signing anything.
Three Routes
Sell, let or hand it over.
Sell It Quietly
Sold without a board or a portal. Introductions go to investors on our list and the buyer, not you, pays our fee. How a quiet sale works →
Let It to Us
Swap the uncertainty for a fixed figure. A company let with us as the lessee, paid monthly, occupied or not. 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 →
Deal
Why owners keep it off the portals
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. Tenants often hear about a sale from the listing. A quiet route lets you plan the conversation with them first, or register the property as it is with the tenancy in place.
Deal
The sale route
For an owner who needs certainty more than the last pound of value, a quiet sale is the route. Investors on our list make any offer below open market value and nothing is payable by the seller.
Deal
Which route suits which owner
Where the highest possible price is the goal and time is not pressing, the open market through an estate agent is the natural route. Where time, privacy or condition matter more, the quiet routes are worth comparing first.
Deal
Keeping the property, losing the hassle
Full management is where most owners should start: the property run as serviced accommodation, priced night by night and reported monthly, for a fee from 20% of booking revenue. A company let suits owners who want one fixed figure instead. For owners who want certainty, a company let is one agreement with a fixed monthly sum. For owners who want the upside, management shares in what the property earns, from 20%.
Deal
Blocks, portfolios and new-build units
Mixed portfolios of houses, flats and small blocks are common. Each property is looked at on its own terms and the routes can differ across the list. Where a portfolio includes tenanted homes, those suit the quiet-sale route as they are. Vacant homes can go on a company let or under management.

For estate and letting agents
Agents are welcome to send a postcode and a line about what the client wants. We come back to the agent about how a lease or management route could work.
Deal
Before we talk
Planning and use can matter, especially for a building that has been converted. Any condition that restricts how the homes may be occupied needs to be known early.
Deal
Where to begin
A short message is enough to begin: where it is, what it is and whether you want to sell, let or hand it over.

What paperwork will I need?
For a lease or management: the title, lender consent, insurance and current certificates. For a sale: the address, the condition and whether it is tenanted.
