Let to contractors

From empty to occupied by crews in Strabane.

Project teams working across Northern Ireland need homes with parking and separate beds. An owner in Strabane with the right property can host them.

Working guests

Crews, engineers and project staff in Strabane

Contractor stays are booked around a job. A crew arrives when the work starts and leaves when it finishes, so the booking follows the programme rather than the school holidays.

Companies book homes for their crews because it keeps the team together and the travel short. The booking is made by the employer, so the guest is there for work from the first night.

What suits

The Strabane homes working guests ask for

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.

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.

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.

Your routes

Four ways to use your Strabane property

Host it yourself

Host working guests yourself with Trade Nest Stays: you set the price, you accept or reject every booking and there is no upfront fee.

Apply to host

A 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 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

Before any guest stays in Strabane

Consents come first. If there is a mortgage, the lender needs to agree to the use in writing. The insurance has to cover short and mid-length stays.

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

How to start in Strabane

Across Northern Ireland, construction and infrastructure projects bring working guests who need practical homes near site.

It starts with the property itself: its size, its parking and how far it is from the work. The route follows from that. Nothing is signed on a phone call. The first conversation is about the property and what you want it to do.

Your questions

Letting to crews in Strabane: FAQs

Why let to working guests rather than a long let?

Some owners want flexibility and control over their calendar. Others prefer a fixed monthly sum. Both routes are open.

Who looks after the property between stays?

As a host you arrange it. On management or a company let, it is handled for you.

Does my flat need freeholder consent?

Read the lease first. Many leases need consent for short and mid-length stays.

Is there any cost to ask?

No. There is no fee to find out which route suits your property.
