You have a holiday let ready for guests; your next step is to choose whether to manage it yourself or use a holiday let management company like Precious Places. Here are 6 reasons you should let with us.
Choosing whether to self-let your property or to use a holiday let management company will significantly affect your rental experience. Heading down the self-managing route might seem appealing as it will give you more control and save on management fees, but it’s also a whole lot more work. Taking care of all aspects of renting your holiday home, from advertising and booking to cleaning and maintenance, is a huge task to put on yourself. In this article, we will explore the 6 key reasons why choosing to let with us may be the best option for you.
6 reasons you should let with us: Pecious Places, Peak District
If you decide to manage a short-let property yourself, it can require up to 40 extra hours of work every month for those just starting out. We can handle all the tasks on your behalf in exchange for a percentage of the booking revenue. This arrangement often makes financial sense for many property owners. Here are 6 more reasons you should work with us.
1. You can take advantage of our end-to-end property management
We handle all aspects of your rental management, from improving your listing to communicating with your guests. Our hospitality management package includes services such as listing your property on booking platforms, managing bookings, vetting guests, facilitating remote check-ins, providing guest support, and offering quality toiletries.
Additionally, we ensure your property is professionally cleaned and laundered after each check-out. With a team of skilled copywriters, talented photographers, exceptional housekeeping crews, and pricing specialists, we can make your property stand out and generate impressive revenue.
2. We offer a low onboarding fee
You will receive an online checklist to work through independently. We are available to assist if you face any challenges during the process, so that this runs smoothly and quickly. Our initial onboarding fee includes property photos and a key box.
3. You can boost bookings with our talented photographers
Please don’t underestimate the power of great photography; it can seriously boost bookings. During the onboarding process, we will schedule a convenient time to photograph your property. High-quality photos are essential for success on any short-term rental platform, so we prioritise this.
4. We offer a 12-month rolling contract
Unlike other property management companies, our services are free of long-term commitments. We offer a 12-month rolling contract, allowing you to cancel at any time. We are against long-term contracts and hidden fees.
5. Our guest support team is on hand
We offer guest support and a smooth check-in process. One of our priorities is to ensure straightforward, efficient communication so your guests are cared for throughout their stay.
6. We prioritise property safety
It’s not feasible to eliminate all risks when renting out your property, but Precious Places exceeds the standard security measures offered by short-letting platforms. For instance, we conduct thorough guest screenings and have a policy against accepting bookings for stag and hen parties to reduce the likelihood of parties. Furthermore, we manage additional insurance coverage as part of our service for full-time clients to ensure protection in case of any issues.
