Portfolios

Serviced & Short-Let

Furnished stock let for weeks rather than years, where the cleaning and the linen are part of the product and the unit turns over constantly.

Owners of serviced apartments and short-stay units.

What makes this hard

Every departure is a clean, an inspection and a reset before the next arrival.

The rate is nightly or weekly and moves with demand, which most property systems cannot express.

Short-let as its own property type
Distinct from residential in the record and in search, so a month-long stay is not treated as a tenancy.
Leases & Tenancies
Turnover work orders
Cleaning and inspection raised as work orders against the unit and assigned to approved contractors.
Facilities & Maintenance
Income posted per unit
Whatever the stay length, the income lands against the unit that earned it.

Worth knowing

There is no nightly rate model — payment frequency runs monthly and longer, so a nightly rate has to be expressed as a monthly equivalent.
No channel-manager integration with booking sites.
No calendar or availability grid.

Start with one property and the ledger behind it. Nothing here needs a migration project to be useful in week one.
