Serviced Accommodation properties
UK properties matched to the SA strategy. Airbnb/short-let ready, projected revenue from local ADR and occupancy data, planning and regulation pre-checked.
SA when the regulation allows
Serviced Accommodation can return 2-3x standard BTL yield, but rules changed in 2024. Short-Term Let planning classes, local 90-day rules, fire safety regulations, and mortgage restrictions all apply. The math also fails if local ADR and occupancy are soft. We check the planning and regulatory layer per postcode, pull historical ADR and occupancy from public data, and project net revenue after cleaning, management, utilities, and void. Only deals where the numbers actually work make it to your feed.

ADR and occupancy projected
Average Daily Rate and occupancy estimates from local SA comparables, not national averages.

Frequently asked questions
Where does SA work best in the UK?
Cities with year-round demand (Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, Bath, York), major event/tourist locations (Cotswolds, Lake District, coastal towns), and corporate hubs (Canary Wharf, Aberdeen energy sector). SA struggles in pure commuter towns with no weekend demand.
What about the new Short-Term Let planning rules?
From 2024, England introduced a Short-Term Let planning use class. Many councils are introducing local licensing. London has a 90-day cap on entire-property lettings per year. Scotland requires a Short-Term Let licence. We flag the applicable regime for every listing based on postcode.
Can I get an SA mortgage?
Specialist SA mortgages exist (rates 5.5-7%) but the product range is narrow. Most investors use BTL mortgages with lender permission or commercial finance. Holiday-let mortgages work for clearly-tourism properties but require FHL tax status. Check with a specialist broker before committing.
How do you calculate net yield on SA?
Gross revenue = ADR x 365 x occupancy rate. Deduct: platform fees (3-15%), cleaning (GBP 40-80 per turnover), management (if outsourced, 25-30%), utilities (GBP 150-250/mo), Business Rates or Council Tax, consumables, maintenance, and voids. Net yield on a well-bought SA typically lands at 8-14%.
