UK short-let consultancy

Short-lets, done properly. UK-wide.

Hire a practitioner by the hour, or take the fixed-fee setup that hands you a brand and starts you trading. Consultancy, not a course. You keep every pound your property earns.

What Truestay sells

Two ways to work with us.

Both are priced flat. Both are delivered by a practitioner. Neither takes a cut of what your property earns.

Who we work with

Three kinds of client. One standard.

First-time host property

The first-time host

One property, savings on the line, no appetite for guessing. Wants to know what will go wrong before it does.

Stalled operator property

The stalled operator

Already trading, occupancy flat, unsure whether the problem is the listing, the pricing or the property itself.

Portfolio builder property

The builder

Wants a business, not a side income. Buys the full setup because time matters more than the fee.

Manchester terraced property
Case in point
