LEGISLATIVE BENEFITS
EPC 2025
With over 3 million homes falling short of the new epc standard from 2025 (costing them on average £8000), it's no wonder many landlords are now coming to us to help them get around this by using our serviced accommodation model
Section 21
With the rising inflation and the cost of living increase, landlords can not afford for their tenants to miss payments, and to make matters worse, it is taking an average of 12 months to evict tenants at the moment. We can help you avoid this with our serviced accommodation model
Section 24
Want to save on tax? Even if you're not registered as a limited company?Another reason our landlords are overjoyed with us. Get in touch to see how we can do the same for you.
TAX BENEFITS
Capital Gains Tax Reliefs
The good news about having a SA is you can claim a range of tax reliefs that are usually reserved for traders. These include Entrepreneur’s Relief, Hold Over Relief, Relief for Gifts of Business Assets, Relief for Loans to Traders and Roll Over Relief.
Capital Allowances
As the owner of a Serviced apartment, you are allowed to claim Capital Allowance for items such as equipment, household fixtures and furniture. This means that if you decide to go to town with decorating and furnishing your SA, you will be able to deduct these costs from your pre-tax profits.
Pension Contribution
Any profit that you make from your SA is considered as ‘relevant earnings’ which means you can make tax-advantaged pension contributions.
Council Tax or Business Rates
Serviced apartments do not pay council tax. As the owner of a SA you should register for business rates, which will be calculated by your local council. In general, these rates will be lower than council tax.
BTL vs SA
Increased profits
Typically, the same property will generate 2/3x more profit for the landlord or investor, opening many more options for them.
No more nonpaying tenants
With a BTL, you have a contract in place that if the tenant breaks, it takes about 12 months to actually evict them. As a Serviced Accommodation provider, you have no tenants but instead you have guests that pay you even before they arrive.
Property in pristine condition at all times
Due to the nature of the business, Serviced Accommodation properties have to be kept in pristine condition at all times, whilst it's difficult to predict what your property will look like at the end of a tenancy, generally, you will be planning for the worst
More control
Our landlords have full control of their property, many of them for the first time in years. With our services, you decide when it's occupied and when you want to keep it available for yourself, whether that is to host family, guests, it doesn't matter what you need it for, the fact is it is in your complete control with the utmost flexibility to use your asset to it's best advantage.

Why UK Landlords Are Switching from Buy-to-Let to Serviced Accommodation in 2026
The Buy-to-Let Model Isn’t “Broken” — But It’s No Longer Easy
For years, buy-to-let (BTL) was the default wealth strategy for UK landlords. Buy a property. Find a tenant. Collect rent. Watch values rise.
But 2026 looks very different.
Today’s landlords face:
Section 24 tax pressure reducing real profits
EPC regulation changes forcing costly upgrades
Section 21 reforms reducing control over tenancies
Rising interest rates squeezing margins
Letting agents charging more while doing less
Many landlords aren’t failing — they’re just working harder for thinner returns. And that’s why a growing number are asking:
“If I’m taking on more risk, regulation, and effort… shouldn’t the income be higher?”
That question is what’s driving the shift toward serviced accommodation (SA).
What Is Serviced Accommodation (In Simple Terms)?
Serviced accommodation is short-to-mid stay property letting designed for:
Contractors
Corporate guests
Relocating professionals
Insurance stays
Tourists and families
Instead of one tenant on a 12-month AST, your property generates income through shorter stays at higher nightly rates — professionally managed, fully compliant, and structured like a hospitality asset rather than a traditional rental.
It’s not “Airbnb hosting.”
It’s asset optimisation.
Why 2026 Is a Turning Point for Landlords
1. Section 24 Has Quietly Changed the Game
Many landlords didn’t feel Section 24 immediately — but over time, profits have eroded. Mortgage interest is no longer fully deductible, meaning:
Same rent. Higher tax. Lower real yield.
Serviced accommodation, when structured correctly, often falls under furnished holiday let-style tax treatment, which can be more efficient depending on the setup.
The key shift:
Landlords are moving from “rent collection” to “income strategy.”
2. EPC Rules Are Forcing Capital Spend Anyway
By 2025–2028, rental properties will require higher EPC ratings. That means:
Insulation upgrades
Window replacements
Heating system changes
If you’re already investing capital into a property…
Does it make sense to keep it in a low-yield model?
Many landlords are upgrading properties once, then transitioning to SA to produce stronger cashflow from the same asset.
3. Section 21 Changes Reduce Control
With Section 21 reforms progressing, landlords face:
Longer eviction timelines
Greater legal process risk
Reduced flexibility with problem tenants
Serviced accommodation operates under licence agreements and short stays, meaning occupancy is controlled through bookings rather than long-term tenancy law.
Less legal friction. More operational control.
“But Isn’t Serviced Accommodation Risky?”
This is the right question — and where most misconceptions live.
Reality #1: It’s Only Risky When Run Casually
Problems come from:
No demand research
No compliance knowledge
Poor guest screening
DIY management burnout
Professional SA is system-led, not host-led.
Reality #2: Demand Is Broader Than Tourists
UK SA demand comes heavily from:
Corporate relocations
NHS & contractor housing
Insurance displacement stays
Infrastructure projects
Short-term business travel
These are year-round demand drivers, not seasonal tourism spikes.
Reality #3: Compliance Is Structured, Not Guesswork
Key requirements typically include:
Local council rules
Fire safety compliance
Insurance adjustments
Mortgage and lease permissions
Guest ID and safety processes
When handled correctly, SA is regulated — not unregulated. The difference is that the rules are operational rather than tenancy-law focused.
The Workload Myth
Many landlords assume SA = more work.
Truth:
Self-managed SA = more work.
Professionally managed SA = less involvement than BTL headaches.
Instead of:
Late-night tenant maintenance calls
Rent arrears chasing
Eviction risk
You have a system managing bookings, cleaning, maintenance, and guest communication — often with higher net income.
The model changes from “landlord” to “asset owner.”
Why More Investors Are Transitioning — Not Replacing
Most landlords switching in 2026 aren’t selling their portfolios.
They’re:
Converting underperforming BTL units
Using SA on high-demand locations
Diversifying income across models
Improving cashflow without buying more property
It’s not about abandoning BTL.
It’s about making each asset work harder.
Is Serviced Accommodation Right for Every Property?
No.
SA works best when:
✔ Strong local demand drivers
✔ Good transport links
✔ Professional setup and management
✔ Financial modelling done properly
It’s a strategy decision, not a trend.
The Smarter Question for 2026 Landlords
Instead of asking:
“Should I try Airbnb?”
The better question is:
“Is my property structured to produce the highest possible income — safely and compliantly?”
That’s where strategic operators come in. Companies like Statera Estates specialise in turning standard rental properties into professionally managed serviced accommodation assets — handling compliance, operations, and performance optimisation so landlords gain the upside without the operational burden.
Final Thought
Buy-to-let isn’t disappearing. But the “buy, rent, forget” era is over.
Landlords who adapt to:
Regulatory shifts
Tax realities
Demand-led income models
are the ones protecting and growing returns in 2026 and beyond.

Godwin
"Before I came across Statera Estates I had this property vacant for 2 years. I was starting to get frustrated and was thinking about selling because I did not want to go back to dealing with regular tenants. If someone had told me 2 years ago that I could make more than double the profits on this property and not having to deal with tenants, I would have never believed them, but that is exactly what has happened. My property is looking the best it ever has, always book booked out and I never have to ask any questions because I have my own portal which allows me to see exactly what is happening at any given point. I could not recommend this company highly enough!"
USEFUL TO KNOW
Lots of landlords are unaware of the potential to increase the income they generate from their properties. So much so that a whole new income strategy has come out of this lack of knowledge, called rent-to-rent.
This is where landlords are offered guaranteed rent for a fixed term, this could be anywhere from 12 - 60 months, the landlord then allows the service provider to sublet the property, which they then turn into serviced apartments. In theory, there are benefits to the landlord, as they no longer have to worry about void periods, management, evictions etc. The difference between what the service provider
rents the property from the landlord for, and what they are able to get on the open market, is theirs to keep as profit
.
AT STATERA ESTATES, WE BELIEVE THERE IS A BETTER WAY!
Having worked with many investors, we understand the landlords journey, the sacrifices they have made to put themselves on the ladder, and as such we believe it is unfair that so many property investors and landlords are missing out on the opportunity to maximise on the investment that they’ve worked very hard to attain, while others are often times making more money from their properties than they are as landlords and investors.

CUTTING OUT THE MIDDLEMAN
LEGISLATION AND TAX BENEFITS
We decided that we will focus on helping landlords get the most out of their properties and increase cash flow by managing their properties on their behalf as serviced apartments, and in the process, cutting out the middleman. This puts the control back into their hands as they are now able to benefit from all the legislation that doesn't apply to using your property as a serviced apartment.
