Working guests for Kendal property owners.
Trade Nest Stays brings working guests. Our group's property company takes property on company lets, manages it or sells it quietly. Kendal owners can use any of the four.
Working guests
Who books a whole home in Kendal
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.
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.
What suits
What sells a Kendal home to a crew
Good broadband is not optional. Site managers and engineers report in every evening. A crew will notice a weak connection before anything else.
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.
Parking is the first thing a crew asks about. A house with room for two vans outside will be booked ahead of a nicer one with parking two streets away.
Your routes
Your options in Kendal
Host it yourself
Keep hold of the keys and host crews yourself. Trade Nest Stays brings the working guests; you set the price and the dates.
Apply to hostA fixed monthly sum
For a fixed figure and nothing to manage, the property can go on a company let agreement with Maine Property Solutions Ltd.
Company letsHand over the running
Hand over the running. Maine Property Solutions manages the property as serviced accommodation and sends you a monthly statement.
ManagementSell quietly
Sell quietly. The property is registered for an off-market sale and introduced to investors, with no board, no portal and no fee to you.
Off-market salePaperwork
Before any guest stays in Kendal
Before anything is signed, the paperwork is checked: title, lender consent, insurance, certificates and, for a flat, the lease.
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.
Getting started
Starting out in Kendal
Across the North West, industrial sites, ports and infrastructure work bring crews in from elsewhere. Homes with parking near the main routes suit them.
Send the details and choose how involved you want to be. You can host, hand over or sell. You can change your mind before signing. The first step is a short message. The town, the property and whether you want to host, take a fixed sum, hand over the running or sell.
Your questions
Kendal owners ask
How do bookings reach me?
Trade Nest Stays brings working guests to hosts. You accept or reject every booking and set the price.
Do I need to live in Kendal?
No. Many owners live elsewhere. What matters is that repairs are dealt with quickly.
Does my mortgage allow this?
Check with your lender. Written consent for the use is needed before the first guest.
Can I block out dates?
Yes. As a host you control the calendar.
Own a Kendal property that suits a crew?
Choose hands-on hosting or a hands-off company let. Both start with a short message.
