Partnership
A Short-Term Rental Operation for Property Investors
A long-term let is predictable, but its ceiling is fixed. Short-term rental produces a higher gross; what decides the difference is not the property but the quality of the operation.
The investor's real question
The question isn't “short term or long term”. It is whether the extra income from short term covers the operational load and the vacancy risk. Any decision made without doing that arithmetic property by property is a guess.
Most investors who run it themselves start well in year one and tire in year two. Rate updates slip, the guest rating falls, occupancy drops, and eventually it goes back to a long-term let — at a lower figure than before.
What you get
- Buying an apartment for Airbnb? We run the earnings analysis and present profitable options
- A yield analysis set against the long-term rent
- Monthly reporting on occupancy, nightly rate and net income
- One operation across the portfolio, broken down by apartment
- When you come to sell, an operating history is an asset
- Vacancy risk sits with the operation, not with you; pricing decisions are made on data
How we start
- 01 Every property in your portfolio gets its own assessment
- 02 We work out together which properties suit short term and which suit long term
- 03 The suitable ones are taken on, the operation is built, monthly reporting starts
- 04 At the quarterly review, the model and the pricing strategy are reassessed
How we work
Commission starts at 15% of monthly net accommodation income; there is no fixed monthly fee. No commission is taken in a month with no earnings — which makes vacancy our problem too.
You set the floor price and we never go below it. Above it, we aim for whatever the market will pay. You can block any dates you want in the calendar for your own use.
How is the comparison worked out?
- 01 We take the property's long-term rent and current costs, and calculate the annual net return.
- 02 We build a short-term scenario for the same property: the local occupancy curve, the nightly rate range, the seasonal spread.
- 03 Short term's extra costs come off — cleaning, consumables, channel commission, management commission, the cost of empty nights.
- 04 The two scenarios sit side by side. If the difference isn't meaningful, we say so; not every property suits short term.

Frequently asked questions
I want to buy an apartment for Airbnb. How do I know which one will be profitable?
Before you buy, we run an earnings analysis on the shortlisted apartments: the district's occupancy rate, the nightly rate range and an estimate of monthly net income. We present the options that look profitable in writing; the purchase decision is yours, and if you wish, we take over the operation.
Is short term more profitable for every property?
No. Where the location, building rules, furnishing or seasonal spread don't suit it, a long-term let can make more sense. We state that plainly in the assessment.
What happens in months when it sits empty?
Because commission is taken on net income, we take none in a month with no earnings. If occupancy falls, the rate and minimum-stay strategy are reviewed.
How do I keep track of my portfolio?
The monthly report gives the portfolio total and a breakdown by apartment: occupancy, average nightly rate, channel mix, costs and net income.
