Let to contractors

A Penzance home for crews and project staff.

If your Penzance property suits a crew, it can earn from one. If you would rather not run it, it can be let on a company let agreement for a fixed monthly sum.

Who the guests are

Who books a whole home in Penzance

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.

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 Penzance property work for trades

Good broadband is not optional. Site managers and engineers report in every evening. A crew will notice a weak connection before anything else.

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.

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.

Your routes

How Penzance 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 host

A 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 lets

Hand over the running

Hand over the running. Maine Property Solutions manages the property as serviced accommodation and sends you a monthly statement.

Management

Sell quietly

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

Off-market sale

Paperwork

Papers to have ready in Penzance

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.

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.

Getting started

The first conversation about Penzance

Across the South West, energy, defence and construction projects bring working guests who need practical homes close to site.

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. It starts with the property itself: its size, its parking and how far it is from the work. The route follows from that.

Your questions

Penzance owners ask

What if my Penzance house needs work first?

For letting it needs to be safe and ready. For a quiet sale it can go as it is.

Do working guests cook?

Most do. A usable kitchen with enough space for the whole crew matters a great deal.

Are cleans needed between stays?

Yes. As a host you arrange them; on management or a company let they are handled for you.

Can I let one floor and live on another?

Only where the home is properly self-contained and your insurer and lender agree.

Which route suits your Penzance property?

Apply to host it yourself, or send it to Maine Property Solutions for a fixed monthly sum, management or a quiet sale.
