“Being so close to Manchester Airport and the football grounds makes a real difference. Truestays handles the pricing automatically and the airport guests keep it busy midweek. The income is well above what the tenant was paying.”

Straight answers

The four most common concerns

Straight answers to the questions you are actually asking. No hedging.

Can I leave whenever I want?

Yes. Our agreement runs month to month with 30 days' notice. Block any dates you want the property back, no questions asked. No lock-in, no penalties, no eviction process.

What if a guest damages my property?

Every guest is ID-verified before they book. We cover you up to £50,000 directly, and Airbnb's Aircover adds up to $3 million on top. In 35,000+ stays we've never had an uninsured claim.

What does it actually cost me?

From 12% + VAT, charged only on nights that book, so if your property sits empty, you pay nothing. A one-off £150 onboarding fee covers setup. Cleaning is paid by the guest, not you.

Is short-letting even allowed on my property?

Stockport has no licensing requirement and no night cap. We check your lease, mortgage and insurance for restrictions, arrange any safety certificates, and handle compliance end to end, so you don't have to worry.

No long lock-in. Cancel with 30 days' notice. Transparent fees, nothing hidden.

The case for short-lets

Why Stockport short-lets outperform long-lets

No single point of failure. Demand comes from tourism, events, business travel and university visitors independently of each other. When one is quiet, the others are not. Since 1 May 2026, Section 21 is gone and every AST is a periodic tenancy you cannot simply end. Short-letting sits outside that framework entirely.

Manchester Airport

Manchester Airport is the UK's third busiest, and Stockport is 20 minutes away by road or tram. Passengers with early morning flights book the night before, and layover guests fill midweek gaps that leisure travellers wouldn't. Properties with parking and easy M56 or tram access command the highest premiums, with airport-related bookings providing a steady baseline year-round.

Football matchdays

Manchester United and Manchester City home fixtures drive 2 to 3x standard rates across Stockport throughout the August to May season. Stockport's proximity to both stadiums and its rail links make it a popular base for away supporters, who often book 2 to 3 night stays rather than just matchday. Derby weekends and European fixtures command the highest premiums.

Peak District

Stockport borders the Peak District, and summer hikers, cyclists and families visiting the national park keep weekend occupancy high from June through September. Properties with parking and easy access to the A6 or M67 command premium rates, and the outdoor activity market fills gaps that urban events don't cover.

Manchester events

Arena concerts, conventions and major city events overflow into Stockport's convenient location, 15 minutes from Manchester Piccadilly by train. When city centre hotels and Airbnbs sell out or hit premium rates, Stockport absorbs the overflow at strong rates, particularly during major concerts and the Christmas Markets season.
