Let to contractors

Crews need homes in Waterlooville. Yours could be one.

Whether your Waterlooville property is empty between tenancies or waiting for a buyer, working guests can keep it occupied while you decide what comes next.

Guests on a job

Who a Waterlooville owner hosts

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.

Engineers, electricians, surveyors, rail crews and fit-out teams all travel for work. When a job lasts weeks rather than days, a whole home suits them far better than a hotel.

What suits

Property that works for contractors in Waterlooville

Beds come first: singles or twins for crews who would rather not share, with enough of them for the whole team. A sofa bed does not count as a bed on a working booking.

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.

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.

Your routes

What you can do with it

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

A company let agreement with Maine Property Solutions Ltd as the lessee gives you one payment on the same date every month, whether or not anyone is staying.

Company lets

Hand over the running

If you want the income but not the work, Maine Property Solutions can manage the property for a percentage of booking revenue.

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

The Waterlooville owner's checklist

Compliance is the owner's foundation for working guests: safe gas and electrics, working alarms and an insurer who knows how the property is being used.

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

Where Waterlooville owners begin

Across the South East, construction and infrastructure projects bring engineers and trades who need whole homes with parking near the job.

It starts with the property itself: its size, its parking and how far it is from the work. The route follows from that. Send a few lines about the property. You can compare every route before deciding. There is no fee to ask.

Your questions

Before you let to contractors in Waterlooville

Can a Waterlooville flat work for contractors?

What does management cover?

Guests, cleaning, repairs reporting and a monthly statement, run by Maine Property Solutions.

Do I choose who stays?

As a host, yes: you accept or reject every booking.

What insurance do I need?

Cover that allows short and mid-length stays by working guests. A standard landlord policy may not.
