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.

From Stressful to Streamlined: How Owners' Portals Are Changing UK Property Management

September 25, 20255 min read

The short-term rental revolution has transformed the UK property landscape, but for many landlords, the transition from traditional letting to Airbnb management feels overwhelming. Enter owners' portals – the game-changing technology that's making the shift from long-term tenancies to short-term lets not just manageable, but genuinely profitable and stress-free.

If you're still managing your Airbnb properties through a maze of spreadsheets, WhatsApp messages, and email chains, you're missing out on the digital transformation that's revolutionising how smart property owners operate in 2025.

The Traditional Rental Trap: Why Landlords Are Making the Switch

For decades, UK landlords have been locked into the traditional rental model – long-term tenancies, annual rent reviews, and the constant worry about void periods. But the short-term rental market offers something completely different: higher yields, flexibility, and the ability to use your property when you need it.

The challenge? Managing Airbnb properties is exponentially more complex than traditional lettings. You're dealing with multiple bookings per month instead of one tenant per year, constant guest communication, cleaning coordination, and real-time pricing adjustments. Without the right systems, it's a recipe for burnout.

image_1

That's where owners' portals come in, transforming what was once a chaotic juggling act into a streamlined, profitable operation.

Real-Time Dashboard Control: Your Property Empire at Your Fingertips

Modern owners' portals give you a comprehensive overview of your entire short-term rental portfolio in one place. Instead of logging into multiple booking platforms, checking different spreadsheets, and trying to coordinate with various service providers, everything is centralised.

You can see your occupancy rates across all properties, upcoming check-ins and check-outs, maintenance requests, and financial performance – all updated in real-time. This level of visibility was impossible with traditional property management methods and gives you the control you need to make informed decisions quickly.

The 24/7 accessibility means you're never out of touch with your business, whether you're travelling abroad or simply want to check how your properties are performing over the weekend. This flexibility is crucial in the short-term rental market where guest issues can arise at any time.

Automated Guest Communication: From Chaos to Clarity

One of the biggest pain points for new Airbnb hosts is managing guest communications. Between booking confirmations, check-in instructions, local recommendations, and handling queries, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Traditional email systems simply weren't designed for this volume of varied interactions.

Owners' portals automate much of this communication through intelligent messaging systems. Pre-written templates handle common scenarios, while smart triggers send the right information at the right time. Your guests receive check-in details automatically, and you're alerted to any issues that need personal attention.

image_2

This automation doesn't just save time – it improves guest satisfaction by ensuring consistent, professional communication that enhances their experience and leads to better reviews.

Maintenance Coordination Made Simple

Traditional rental properties might need maintenance once every few months. Short-term rentals need constant attention – cleaning between guests, restocking supplies, handling wear and tear from high turnover, and maintaining that hotel-standard presentation guests expect.

Owners' portals revolutionise maintenance management by creating workflows that keep everything running smoothly. Cleaning teams receive automatic notifications when guests check out, maintenance issues are logged with photos and priority levels, and you can track progress in real-time.

The portal becomes your coordination hub, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks and your properties maintain the high standards essential for short-term rental success.

Financial Transparency: From Guesswork to Insights

Traditional rental income is predictable but limited – the same amount each month for the year. Short-term rental income fluctuates based on seasonality, local events, pricing strategy, and occupancy rates. This variability makes financial tracking both more complex and more crucial.

Advanced financial dashboards within owners' portals provide the insights you need to optimise your revenue. You can see which properties are performing best, understand seasonal trends, track expenses in real-time, and calculate your true profit margins after all costs are considered.

This level of financial visibility allows you to make data-driven decisions about pricing, property improvements, and portfolio expansion – something that was nearly impossible with traditional spreadsheet-based approaches.

Seamless Multi-Platform Integration

The short-term rental market isn't just about Airbnb anymore. Successful hosts list on multiple platforms – Booking.com, VRBO, Expedia, and others. Managing inventory and avoiding double bookings across these platforms used to require constant manual updates.

Modern owners' portals integrate with all major booking platforms, automatically synchronising availability and pricing. When someone books your property on Airbnb, the calendar is instantly updated across all other platforms, eliminating the risk of double bookings and the stress of manual coordination.

Performance Analytics: The Competitive Edge

Traditional landlords might review their property performance annually. Short-term rental success requires constant optimisation. Detailed analytics within owners' portals show you exactly how your properties are performing compared to local competitors.

You can see average daily rates, occupancy percentages, revenue per available night, and guest satisfaction scores. This data helps you understand market trends, adjust pricing strategies, and identify opportunities for improvement.

The insights provided by these portals transform property management from reactive firefighting to proactive strategy development.

Streamlined Service Provider Coordination

Short-term rentals require a network of service providers – cleaning teams, maintenance contractors, key holders, and supply restockers. Coordinating these services traditionally involved countless phone calls and messages.

Owners' portals create centralised service provider networks where each team member has access to the information they need. Cleaners can see checkout times and special requirements, maintenance teams receive detailed issue reports with photos, and everyone works from the same real-time schedule.

image_4

This coordination eliminates the stress of constant communication and ensures your properties are always guest-ready.

The Future of Property Management is Here

The transformation from stressful traditional management to streamlined short-term rental operations isn't just about technology – it's about giving property owners the tools to build scalable, profitable businesses.

Owners' portals represent the evolution of property management from a hands-on, reactive approach to a strategic, data-driven operation. They're enabling UK landlords to transition confidently from traditional lettings to the more lucrative short-term rental market without the complexity and stress that once made this transition seem impossible.

For property owners ready to embrace the short-term rental opportunity, these platforms aren't just helpful – they're essential. The question isn't whether you need an owners' portal, but how quickly you can implement one to start transforming your property business.

The future of UK property management is streamlined, automated, and profitable. The only question is whether you'll be part of it.

"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.
