As the hospitality and property sectors continue to merge, there has been an increase in demand for the full management services within the property sector. There has never been a better time to run your own short stay property management franchise.
According to a report by letting agent professional body ARLA Propertymark last year, nearly 50,000 properties have been changed from long-term to short-term letting. Its research, which was carried out by Capital Economics, found that a further 10% of landlords were considering offering short-term lets in the future.
Host & Stay Franchisees help more homeowners and partners unlock the potential in their homes, they list their rental properties on Airbnb, Booking.com, 60+ Booking Platforms including access to exclusive Platforms.
Franchisees handle the entire process for homeowners; including marketing, revenue, property, and guest management and generating income – Host & Stay's technology helps run every element of a booking.
