“I was a bit sceptical at first. I'd had the same tenant for years and didn't want the hassle of dealing with guests. But the flat was sitting empty half the week anyway. Truestays sorted the listing, the cleaning, all of it. I still block the dates when I need to stay there. The income's been better than the rent was, though it does fluctuate with the seasons. Mostly I just don't have to think about it.”

The smart alternative

Why short-lets outperform
long-term rentals.

The numbers don't lie. Short-let management consistently outperforms AST tenancies on every metric that matters.

Higher Income

Earn 40-80% more than a traditional long-term tenancy. Short-let pricing flexes with demand, events, and seasons so your property always earns its full potential.

Total Flexibility

Block dates whenever you need your property back. Unlike an AST, you stay in control whether it's a week, a month, or longer.

Consistent Cash Flow

Guests pay upfront, every booking. No rent arrears, no chasing payments, no late deposits. Just clean, predictable income hitting your account.

Better Property Standards

Regular professional cleaning and inspections keep your property in pristine condition, often better maintained than under a long-term tenancy.

No Bad Tenants

Every guest is vetted, ID-verified, and reviewed. No problem tenants, no eviction process, no legal headaches. Just well-screened visitors.

Completely Hands-Free

We handle everything from listing and pricing to guest comms, check-in, and housekeeping. You earn without lifting a finger.

"I was earning £950 a month from a long-term tenant. Within 60 days of handing it to Truestays I was clearing over £1,800. I genuinely don't have to do anything."

"Professional photos done within a week, live on Airbnb by day 7, first payout by day 30. Exactly as they promised."

"Nervous about switching from a long-term tenant but they walked me through everything. First year with Truestays was the best financial year we've had from that property."
