Short term lettings
ABOUT SHORT LETS
We define a short let as a rental lasting between 28 days and 6 months. This flexible timeframe makes short lets ideal for those in need of temporary accommodation, whether for work, relocation, or personal reasons.
Unlike traditional rentals, short lets generally include all utilities and property expenses within the rental price. From energy bills to council tax, everything is covered, offering convenience for tenants and clarity for landlords.
Short lets come fully furnished, right down to the crockery and linens. These tenants are looking for a ‘home away from home,’ so you’ll find that personal touches such as books, artwork, and even decorative ornaments are encouraged. However, it’s wise to secure any items of sentimental value before letting out your property.
Our short let tenants tend to be professionals, not tourists. Whether through corporate lets, insurance agreements, or film production studios, our clients are typically referred to us via trusted sources. This reduces the risk for landlords significantly, ensuring your property is in good hands. Families who are between homes during a sale also frequently choose this option, making them reliable and respectful tenants.
We leave no stone unturned when marketing your short let. In addition to listing your property on major online platforms, we work closely with relocation and search agents to match your home with the right tenants. We also leverage a shared agent platform, broadening the pool of prospective tenants and giving you peace of mind with our thorough vetting process.
Our property management team takes care of everything. From regular inspections to arranging cleaning services, we’re committed to maintaining your property to the highest standard. While tenants won’t receive a hotel-style concierge service, you can rest assured that any issues will be promptly addressed by our experienced team.
