From empty to occupied by crews in Aberystwyth.
Trade Nest Stays brings working guests. Our group's property company takes property on company lets, manages it or sells it quietly. Aberystwyth owners can use any of the four.
Guests on a job
Working away in Aberystwyth
Engineers, electricians, surveyors, rail crews and fit-out teams all travel for work. When a job lasts weeks rather than days, a whole home suits them far better than a hotel.
Working guests are people away from home for the job: crews on a construction programme, engineers on a maintenance contract, fit-out teams and project staff on secondment. They stay for the length of the work and they need somewhere practical to come back to each evening.
What suits
What sells a Aberystwyth home to a crew
A house that is safe, warm, well lit and easy to check into will suit working guests. Self check-in helps crews who arrive late after a long day on the road.
Flats work too, where the building allows short and mid-length stays and there is somewhere to park. A self-contained flat near the station suits engineers who travel light.
Good broadband is not optional. Site managers and engineers report in every evening. A crew will notice a weak connection before anything else.
Your routes
Pick the route that suits you
Host it yourself
Hosting suits owners who want control. You decide the price and which bookings to accept. There is nothing to pay upfront.
Apply to hostA fixed monthly sum
Prefer certainty? Maine Property Solutions can take the property on a company let agreement for a fixed monthly sum, with the voids carried on its side.
Company letsHand over the running
If you want the income but not the work, Maine Property Solutions can manage the property for a percentage of booking revenue.
ManagementSell quietly
If selling is the answer, it can be done without a listing: a quiet sale to investors on Maine Property Solutions' list, with the buyer paying the fee.

The checks that come first in Aberystwyth
For a leasehold flat the lease decides what is allowed. It is worth reading the restrictions before anything else, because they can rule a flat in or out.
Get the certificates together early: gas, electrical, energy performance and alarms. They are the first things checked and the usual reason a start date slips.
Getting started
Your first step in Aberystwyth
Across Wales, energy, infrastructure and industrial projects bring engineers and trades who need practical homes near the work.
Tell us about the property and the route you are leaning towards. Terms are always written down before anything is agreed. It starts with the property itself: its size, its parking and how far it is from the work. The route follows from that.
