Management Only is our upmarket service for portfolio investors and block owners in Manchester. You keep ownership and rental income. We run the day-to-day, book the guests, handle compliance, and deliver monthly reports that read like a fund update, not a lettings summary.
Management Only is a full-service operating layer that sits between you and the property. You keep the freehold or leasehold, you keep the rental income, and you keep the strategic decisions. We take on everything else.
That means dynamic pricing via PriceLabs tuned to Manchester submarket data, distribution across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, Google Vacation Rentals, TripAdvisor, Expedia, corporate housing platforms and 20+ more via Guesty, and 24/7 guest communications via Enso Connect with response times under ten minutes. Professional cleaning, linen, and turnover teams are vetted and scheduled by us.
Statutory compliance is handled end to end. Gas safety, EICR, fire risk assessment, EPC, and insurance are all managed and renewed on schedule. You get monthly investor-grade reporting: occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, net-to-owner, and photographic condition. Structured to read like a fund update, not a lettings summary.
You own a whole building. You want one operator running it as a single portfolio, not a fragmented set of independent tenancies.
You own 3 or more units. You want investor-grade reporting, monthly performance packs, and a single point of contact you can actually reach.
You're moving away from HMO or single-let and want to reposition your stock into short-let and corporate housing, without becoming an operator yourself.
Full property shoot, copywriting, and setup across 20+ platforms via Guesty. One canonical listing, syndicated everywhere.
Daily repricing tuned to Manchester submarket data, event calendars, and comparable stock. Not template rules.
Response times under 10 minutes, 24 hours a day. Every message audited and archived against the booking.
Cleaning teams contracted by us, held to a written photo checklist. Linen laundered externally to hotel standard.
A branded direct-booking site alongside the OTAs, with lower commission and repeat-guest capture.
Gas safety, EICR, fire risk assessment, EPC, insurance. Documentation stored centrally and renewed on schedule.
Occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, net-to-owner, and photographic condition, in a monthly PDF pack sent on the same day each month.
One named contact, WhatsApp reachable, with quarterly portfolio review calls booked in advance.
Setup costs are the friction point that stops most short-let repositions ever happening. We offer two clean structures, both of them designed to reach positive cashflow quickly without hidden markups.
You fund any operational fixes needed to bring the property to short-let standard (photography, listing setup, minor works). We project-manage at trade pricing, so you're not paying agency markups. Fastest route to positive cashflow.
We front the setup costs and recoup them over an agreed period from booking revenue. Zero upfront outlay from you. Ideal if you want to test the market before committing capital.
The block had been through multiple rent-to-rent operators who kept failing. Beyond Stays now operates six apartments as a single coordinated multi-unit operation. Repositioned as short-let and corporate housing across Airbnb, Booking.com and direct corporate. One operator, one commercial strategy, one point of contact. Now the strongest cashflow line in the block.
