Landlord FAQs

Common questions from landlords.

How much does short-let management cost in Newry & the Mournes?

Our management fees start at 14% + VAT of booking revenue on a 12-month plan, 18% + VAT on a 6-month term and 22% + VAT on our flexible rolling agreement. A one-off onboarding fee to get the property guest-ready is quoted before you commit.

Am I tied into a long contract?

No. You choose the term that suits you — 12 months, 6 months or a rolling agreement with 30 days' notice. The longer terms simply carry a lower management fee.

What compliance do I need for a short let in Northern Ireland?

Short-term holiday accommodation in Northern Ireland must hold a Tourism NI certificate before it is offered to guests. You may also need planning permission depending on the property, plus a fire risk assessment, gas and electrical safety checks, and the right insurance and mortgage or landlord consent. We guide you through each step and handle the compliance checks as part of onboarding.

Do I need special insurance for Airbnb or short lets?

Yes. Standard home or buy-to-let policies usually exclude paying guests, so you will need specialist short-let or holiday-let insurance. We can point you towards suitable cover.

What does short-let management actually include?

Listing creation and optimisation, daily dynamic pricing, guest communication 24/7, check-in, housekeeping and linen coordination, maintenance coordination, and monthly statements with payouts. It is completely hands-off for you.

Can I still use the property myself?

Yes. Tell us the dates you want to block out and we will keep them clear in the calendar across all platforms.

How and when do I get paid?

You receive a monthly payout with a full statement showing bookings, revenue, fees and any costs, so you always know exactly how the property is performing.
