City short let realities
High turnover
Short stays mean more arrivals, more cleans and more messages per booked night.
Building rules
Noise, waste and access rules that need communicating to every guest.
Guest vetting admin
Collecting the information your vetting process requires before arrival.
Licensing records
Maintaining the registration and night-count records your local rules require.
Local rules vary considerably between councils and are changing in several UK cities. Your assistant can maintain the records and flag renewal dates, but responsibility for compliance stays with the operator, and licensing questions should go to your local authority or adviser.
