Selling in Reading? Talk to us before an agent.
For owners in Reading who want a sale kept quiet, a fixed monthly income or the day-to-day taken away. Three routes, one conversation and no fee to talk.
Three Routes
Three routes, no listing.
Sell It Quietly
The discreet route. Register the property, keep it private and pay nothing on the sale. 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 →

The case for going to us first
There is no fee to talk to us and no obligation to use any route. If an agent is the better answer for the property, you are free to go straight to one afterwards. A portal listing is public the moment it goes live. Neighbours, tenants and every agent in the area can see the asking price and every week it stays up is counted. Talking to us first keeps all of that private while you decide what to do.

What happens on a quiet sale
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.
Reading
Who each route is for
Owners abroad or far from the property often want the day-to-day handled completely. Management or a company let does that; a quiet sale ends the responsibility altogether.
Reading
The letting routes
Keeping the property and handing over the day-to-day is often a better answer than a sale. Management from 20% of booking revenue leaves the asset and the upside with you. One fixed payment or a share of the income: the two letting routes trade certainty against upside and each can be compared on paper before you choose.

Larger properties and portfolios
For a building with long leaseholders, the flats you own can come to us while the managing agent keeps the common parts. The lease terms set what is possible. Portfolio owners rarely use one route for every property. The strongest homes may stay under management, some may be let to us and the rest registered for a quiet sale.

Agents: a second route for your client
Estate agents with a vendor who will not reduce can introduce the property for a company let or management instead of a withdrawal. The agent keeps the client and the instruction and everything goes through the agent.
Reading
What to have ready
Current certificates shorten everything: gas safety, the electrical installation condition report and the EPC. A block or a house in multiple occupation also needs its fire risk assessment.
Reading
Starting the conversation
If the property is part of a portfolio or a block, send the list rather than one address. It is quicker to look at the whole picture once.

Your Questions
Off-market in Reading, answered.
Still not sure? Tell us about the property and we will come back to you.
Can I keep my Reading property and hand over the day-to-day?
Yes. Full management runs it as serviced accommodation for a fee from 20% of booking revenue and the property stays yours.
What is a company let?
An agreement with Maine Property Solutions Ltd as the lessee: one fixed monthly sum, paid whether or not anyone is staying.
Is what I send kept private?
Yes. Details are shared only with your agreement and a mutual NDA is available.
What happens after I send the details?
For a lease or management, we come back to you about how it would work. For a sale, the details go on our register and we come back to you about next steps.
