Six moments to mention us
We're not a replacement for a long let. We're another option for landlords you might otherwise lose.
Between tenants
A furnished home earns while you find the next tenant, instead of sitting empty.
On the market
It earns while it sells. We keep viewing days free, and the sale stays yours.
Thinking of selling up
Section 21 ended in England on 1 May 2026. Some landlords are rethinking. A short let gives them another choice.
Inherited homes
Families who aren't ready to decide can earn from the home while they do.
Away for a while
A landlord working away or abroad for a few months doesn't want a tenancy tying up their home.
Hard to long let
Annexes, flats above shops and larger homes that suit working crews better than families.

Keep most homes with you, let one earn more with us
Most landlords don't need to choose. Steady long lets stay with your agency. The one home that suits short stays comes to us.
- Your agency still manages four of the five homes
- The fifth stays on your books through the partnership
- If short letting stops suiting it, the home comes back to you as a long let

Seasonal, but planned for
A short let earns more over a year, not every month. This is how we take the worry out of the quiet ones.
- Winter is filled with longer stays. Contractors and families placed by insurers book for weeks at a time, whatever the season.
- The numbers come first. The free earnings assessment shows each month after bills, before the landlord commits.
- A way back. 30 days' notice in the first three months, and the home can return to a long let with you.
What the landlord actually keeps
On a long let the tenant pays the bills. On a short let the landlord does. So we compare after every cost, not rent against payouts.
Our 2-bed house in Rochester, with 2026/27 Medway council tax (band C) and bills estimated for a home with guests. Mortgage, repairs and landlord insurance are paid either way, so they're left out. Some short lets pay business rates instead of council tax, often less with small business rate relief. Every free earnings assessment uses the home's own figures.

What your landlord's home could look like
A landlord you'd lose, kept on your books
When a tenancy ends and the landlord is thinking about selling or giving up, a short let gives them another option, and gives you a reason to stay in touch.
Register your agency
- Income for your agency. [X]% of [our fee or booking income] for [how long].
- No conflict. We don't sell homes or arrange long lets. If the landlord later sells or goes back to a long let, that's yours.
- A named contact. One person who knows your agency, with an update on every landlord you introduce.
- Honest answers. If a short let won't beat the rent on a home, we'll say so and hand the landlord back to you.

How does the partnership start?
Register your agency above and we'll call within 1 working day to arrange a meeting, by phone, video or at your office. We agree terms in a short partner agreement before your team introduces anyone.
Will you compete with our agency for the landlord?
No. We only do short-let management. We don't sell homes or arrange long lets, so the sale and any future tenancy stay with you.
What does our agency earn?
[X]% of [our fee or booking income] on each home you introduce, for [how long], paid [monthly]. It's set out in the partner agreement.
Are we tied in?
[Partner agreement terms, e.g. no minimum number of introductions, and either side can end it with X days' notice.]
How do we introduce a landlord?
Whichever suits your team: a call or email to your named contact, or the referral form on this page. We only contact landlords who've agreed to hear from us.
Can a landlord keep some homes with us and short let one with you?
Yes, and it's often the best fit. Steady homes stay as long lets with your agency, and the one that suits short stays comes to us. If short letting stops suiting it, it goes back to a long let with you.
Can our agency keep looking after maintenance, or show the home to buyers?
Yes to both. We agree up front who handles what, and keep any viewing dates free of guests.
