Crews need homes in Hartlepool. Yours could be one.
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 Hartlepool property.
Who stays
The people Hartlepool projects bring in
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.
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.
What suits
What sells a Hartlepool 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.
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.

How Hartlepool 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
Selling is an option too, without a board or a round of viewings. The buyer pays the fee on the quiet-sale route.

Getting the Hartlepool property compliant
Before the first guest arrives, the basics need to be in place: a current gas safety record, an electrical report, an energy performance certificate and working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.
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.
