Let your Greenock property to contractors.
Host crews yourself with Trade Nest Stays, or take a fixed monthly sum through our group's property company. Both start with one conversation about your Greenock property.
Who you would host
Who needs a home near the job in Greenock
The people who stay are the ones delivering projects: new buildings, road and rail upgrades, factory refits and maintenance contracts. The work moves around the country and so do they.
Most working guests travel as a team. Four or five people who work together all day would rather share a house with a kitchen and a lounge than spend months in separate hotel rooms.
What suits
What sells a Greenock home to a crew
Durable, easy-clean furnishing suits working guests. Workwear, boots and early starts are part of the stay, so the house needs to take it in its stride.
Whole houses with two to five bedrooms suit crews best, especially with a driveway or off-street parking. Separate beds for everyone on the booking matter more than a feature wall.
Location matters more than decor. A house close to a motorway junction, an industrial estate or a major site cuts the daily drive. That is what an employer is paying for.

Safety and consents for Greenock owners
A house that sleeps more people needs more thought about fire safety. Detection, escape routes and fire doors should suit the number of guests the house takes.
Planning can matter too. Outside London there is no fixed night limit for short stays in England; whether a change of use needs permission is a question of fact and degree for the council.
Getting started
Getting going in Greenock
Across Scotland, energy, infrastructure and construction work bring crews who need whole homes near the job.
Send a few lines about the property. You can compare every route before deciding. There is no fee to ask. Start by sending the basics: where the property is, how many bedrooms it has, whether there is parking and which route interests you.
Your questions
Letting to crews in Greenock: FAQs
Do contractors need a whole house in Greenock?
Usually. A crew that works together all day would rather share a home with a kitchen and a lounge than spend weeks in separate rooms.
Is parking a deal-breaker?
Often. Vans and trailers need somewhere to go, so off-street parking puts a house ahead of one without it.
Who pays for the stay?
Normally the employer, as the booking is made for work.
Can a flat above a shop work?
It can, where the lease and the insurance allow it and there is somewhere to park.
Own a Greenock property that suits a crew?
Host working guests with Trade Nest Stays, or hand it over to Maine Property Solutions. No fee to talk.
