One management fee covers the entire operation, from the photography that launches your listing to the monthly statement that lands with your income. No add-ons. No surprise line items.
Most managers pick one strategy and accept its weaknesses. We run two, each deployed where it is strongest.
London law allows 90 short-let nights per year without planning permission. We deploy them at the highest-yield points in the calendar (summer peak, event weeks, corporate seasons) priced daily against live concierge-tier comparables in your postcode. Peak nights in Prime Central London reach £500–£1,350+ for a well-managed two-bedroom.
The remaining calendar is filled with stays of 30 days or more for corporate relocations, diplomatic placements, families between homes. These sit entirely outside the 90-night cap, command a significant premium over standard furnished lets thanks to the Belmont service standard, and are sourced through relocation and corporate channels most operators cannot access.
The result: high occupancy throughout the year, every one of them legal, and a modelled net income 50–75% above a fully-costed conventional long let. Where planning permission is achievable, we can also apply (at our cost, not yours) to unlock full-year short-letting.
Property specification review, lease assessment, compliance baseline, insurance guidance, professional photography, listing creation and channel setup across Airbnb, Plum Guide, and direct corporate and concierge referral networks.
Dynamic pricing adjusted daily, anchored to named live comparables, not borough averages. Event premiums (Wimbledon, Frieze, Flower Show, Fashion Week) applied weeks ahead on forward booking data.
ID verification and screening on every booking. Pre-arrival preparation shaped to each guest profile. A family with young children receives a different residence than a solo executive.
A named guest experience manager on every stay, available around the clock. Restaurant, transfer, and experience bookings. Bespoke welcome amenities. This is the service tier that produces the rates.
Hotel-grade housekeeping, full linen and laundry management, property reset between every stay, and daily service on longer stays. Cleaning fees on short stays are paid by the guest — never by you.
All coordination and vendor management with trusted contractors. Issues found on post-departure inspection are documented and resolved immediately, with every job logged on your monthly report.
The 90-night allocation tracked to the night under the Deregulation Act 2015. Gas safety, EICR, and fire risk filings managed on a compliance calendar. Insurance compliance maintained throughout.
A monthly statement with itemised short-let and mid-term income, occupancy dashboard, rate achieved versus benchmark, maintenance log, and compliance calendar. Total transparency, every month.
Where full-year short-letting is worth pursuing, Belmont prepares and manages the planning application (and bears the application costs). You carry zero financial exposure to the process.
