What a listing gives away
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. An estate agent is the right route when the highest price is what matters most. When privacy, speed or certainty matter more, an off-market route is worth a conversation first and it costs nothing to have.

What happens on a quiet sale
A quiet sale works for tired houses, tenanted flats and properties with a history an owner would rather not advertise. Investors on our list make any offer, at below open market value; we introduce and the buyer pays our fee.
Stanley
Which route suits which owner
Developers with finished units that are slow to sell often start with a company let and keep a break clause for the sale. Owners of a single house in need of repair more often register it for a quiet sale.
Stanley
Letting it to us instead
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. If you would rather keep the property, it can be let to us on a company let agreement: Maine Property Solutions Ltd as the lessee, one fixed sum every month and the void risk with us. Or keep full control of the income with management from 20% of booking revenue.
Stanley
When it is more than a house
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.

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.

Your Questions
Before you decide in Stanley.
Still not sure? Tell us about the property and we will come back to you.
Can I still use an agent later?
Yes. Nothing about talking to us stops you listing with an agent afterwards.
Do you take new-build units in Stanley?
Yes. Completed units can go on a company let while they are marketed, with a break clause for a sale.
Is the monthly sum paid if the property is empty?
Yes. Under a company let agreement the fixed monthly sum is paid whether or not anyone is staying.
Can estate agents send us properties?
Yes. Introductions go through the agent and the agent keeps the client.
