Airbnb management in Manchester, explained
Manchester is the North West's largest short-stay market: a dense corporate base, two universities, a huge events calendar and an airport that keeps demand alive through the winter months.
End-to-end Airbnb management: we build and rank the listing, price it daily, screen every guest and run the turnarounds - so your calendar stays full and your reviews stay at five stars.
Your fee is 15% of booking revenue with no VAT and no long-term contract, and the whole operation is run by our local Greater Manchester team.

Where we manage airbnb properties in Manchester
We cover M1, M2, M3, M4, M15, M16, M20, M50 and the surrounding neighbourhoods.
Manchester short let rules and compliance
Manchester City Council has signalled interest in short-let regulation and planning enforcement around change of use, so lease terms, freeholder consent and building management rules need checking before launch. We review your lease, confirm safety certification, fit compliant smart access and keep records ready if the council ever asks.
Piccadilly and Victoria stations, three Metrolink lines and Manchester Airport feed constant demand. Apartments within 15 minutes' walk of Deansgate, Ancoats or MediaCity capture both corporate weekdays and event weekends.

What to check before listing on Airbnb
Getting these right up front avoids an expensive false start. We verify each one before we take a property on.
Lease and freeholder permission
Many leasehold apartments restrict short-term letting. We read the lease and speak to the managing agent so you know where you stand before spending anything.
Local licensing
Selective licensing varies by council across the North West and Wales. We confirm your property's position in writing during onboarding.
Mortgage and insurance consent
Buy-to-let mortgages and standard landlord policies often exclude short lets. We flag what needs changing and point you to appropriate providers.
Safety certification
Gas safety, electrical testing, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and a fire risk assessment are all required. We arrange and track them.
This is general guidance, not legal or tax advice. Always confirm your position with your local council and a qualified accountant.
