Short-Let Management in Cardiff

Short-let management in Cardiff — your questions answered
How much does Airbnb management cost in Cardiff?
We charge a single, all-inclusive management fee taken from the booking income — no set-up fees, no lock-in tie and no charge in months your property sits empty. The fee covers listing creation, dynamic pricing, client communication, check-ins, cleaning coordination, linen, maintenance oversight and monthly owner statements. We'll quote your exact rate once we've seen the property and the Cardiff comparables.
How much can my Cardiff property earn on Airbnb?
It depends on bedrooms, location and finish, so we never quote blind. We pull live occupancy and nightly-rate data for comparable Cardiff listings, apply realistic seasonality, deduct running costs and give you a net figure to compare against your current long-let rent — in writing, before you commit to anything.
Do I need a licence or planning permission to short-let in Cardiff?
Rules vary by council and change regularly — Scotland requires a short-term let licence, London applies a 90-night limit, and other councils are consulting on registration schemes. We check the current position for your specific Cardiff address, tell you plainly what applies, and handle applications and paperwork where one is needed.
How hands-off is it really?
Completely. Once we've onboarded your Cardiff property we handle listings, pricing, enquiries, check-ins, cleaning, linen, restocking, reviews and maintenance call-outs. You get a monthly statement and your payout — nothing else is required from you unless you want to be involved.
What happens if a client damages my property?
Every stay is vetted before arrival, deposits or damage cover are held on qualifying bookings, and our local Cardiff team inspects the property after each checkout. If something is damaged we document it, claim through the platform's protection scheme and arrange the repair for you.
Can I still use the property myself?
Yes. Owner stays are blocked out in the calendar whenever you want them — just give us a little notice so we can protect your pricing and avoid turning away high-value bookings.
