Crews need homes in Halifax. Yours could be one.
Project teams working across Yorkshire and the Humber need homes with parking and separate beds. An owner in Halifax with the right property can host them.
Who books
The people Halifax projects bring in
A working guest is usually on the road with colleagues and on a schedule set by the job. The house needs to fit the crew, the vans and the early starts.
Crews who work away value the same things wherever they are: a bed each, somewhere to cook, a washing machine and parking. A home that offers those is the one they come back to.
What suits
Making a Halifax property work for trades
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.
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.
The homes that work are practical ones: enough bedrooms for the crew, a kitchen with space for everyone, a washing machine and parking for vans and trailers.

How Halifax owners work with us
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
Take a fixed monthly sum. Our group's property company, Maine Property Solutions, takes the property on a company let agreement and pays the same figure each month.
Company letsHand over the running
Keep the property and the income while Maine Property Solutions runs it for you, from guests to cleaning to the monthly statement.
ManagementSell quietly
A quiet sale keeps the property off the portals. Investors make any offer and you pay nothing on this route.

Getting the Halifax property compliant
Before anything is signed, the paperwork is checked: title, lender consent, insurance, certificates and, for a flat, the lease.
Insurance is the paper owners most often forget. A standard landlord policy may not cover working guests, so the cover needs checking before the first booking.
Getting started
Beginning with your Halifax home
Across Yorkshire and the Humber, industrial and infrastructure work draws crews from around the country. Homes near the main routes suit them.
A postcode area, the number of bedrooms and the parking situation are enough to start. The rest follows once a route is chosen. Begin with what you have and what you want. Hosting, a company let, management and a sale can all be compared in one conversation.
Your questions
Questions from Halifax owners
Do contractors need a whole house in Halifax?
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.
