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
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
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.
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.
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.
Any profit that you make from your SA is considered as ‘relevant earnings’ which means you can make tax-advantaged pension contributions.
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.
Typically, the same property will generate 2/3x more profit for the landlord or investor, opening many more options for them.
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.

Technology is dramatically transforming the landscape for landlords embracing serviced accommodation—think short-term rentals like Airbnb and boutique stays—in the UK. From automating day-to-day operations to creating truly memorable guest experiences, the right tools have become essential for landlords looking to rise above the noise, maximise income, and deliver modern living spaces tailored for today’s evolving renter. At Statera Estates, we help landlords move from traditional rentals to hands-off, highly profitable serviced accommodation, powered by the latest tech.
Managing a serviced accommodation portfolio means juggling bookings, cleaning teams, guest communications, price adjustments, and property upkeep—often all at once. That’s where property technology (PropTech) steps in.
Leading digital platforms centralise bookings from channels like Airbnb, Booking.com, and Expedia, so no reservation slips through the cracks. These systems automatically sync calendars, update availability, and manage guest messages around the clock—goodbye double bookings, hello happy guests. Automated messaging keeps guests informed with check-in details, house rules, and local recommendations—without lifting a finger.
Cloud technology also powers seamless collaboration, especially if you have multiple properties. Task delegation for cleaning, linen changes, and maintenance is automated with real-time updates. Whether you’re on-site or abroad, you can keep tabs on your portfolio with just your phone or laptop.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming how landlords operate—and how guests experience—the property itself.
Smart thermostats and lighting systems help keep utility bills in check. These devices learn occupancy patterns, adjust settings automatically, and send real-time data to your smartphone. It’s not just about savings—guests love walking into a home set to the perfect temperature or lights that respond to voice commands.
Nobody likes a broken boiler, least of all your guests. IoT sensors monitor crucial assets—like plumbing, heating, or even air quality—and alert you (and your maintenance team) before little issues become expensive emergencies. This proactive approach can prevent up to 70% of unexpected breakdowns, keeping your reviews positive and your costs controlled.
Keyless entry isn’t a luxury anymore—it’s expected. Whether it’s a digital code or a mobile app, smart locks make check-in literally instant, anytime, day or night. They also add an extra layer of security since codes can be changed remotely after every stay, removing the hassles (and risks) of old-fashioned keys.
One of the biggest opportunities tech offers is smarter, more profitable pricing, without all the guesswork.
Automated pricing systems now crunch real-time market data—local demand, seasonal trends, competitor rates, and even local events—to adjust nightly rates for each property. These tools can boost your occupancy and maximise income, ensuring you’re never leaving money on the table. It’s especially powerful compared to traditional fixed rents, giving landlords unrivalled flexibility to capture peak demand.
Modern dashboards track metrics like Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR), occupancy, guest ratings, and cleaning costs, giving you the insights needed to scale and fine tune your offering. With this level of transparency, landlords can make data-driven decisions about everything from reinvestment to which amenities truly matter to guests.
Guests now expect seamless tech experiences from booking to check-out—and landlords who deliver earn better reviews and repeat business.
From pre-stay welcome messages to post-stay thank-yous, automated systems personalise every touchpoint. Need to send the WiFi code, parking instructions, or emergency info? It’s all delivered instantly, boosting peace of mind and reducing repetitive questions.
Smart TVs, fast WiFi, and even digital concierge apps are now the norm. Some serviced accommodations use guest experience platforms that help localise the stay—from recommending nearby gems to instantly re-booking the same property for a return visit.
COVID accelerated the move to touch-free stays, but guests still love it. Think online check-in, smart locks, and QR code house manuals. With tech handling all the basics, landlords are free to focus on surprise extras that earn five-star reviews.
With more professionals untethered from the office, the demand for work-friendly stays has soared.
Landlords are now using tech to create ideal setups for remote workers—think high-speed broadband, ergonomic chairs, adjustable desks, and extra monitors. Listings highlight these features online, attracting a lucrative new market: business travellers and digital nomads seeking flexible, inspiring spaces.
Properties with fibre broadband, whole-home WiFi coverage, and mobile device charging stations stand out from the crowd. In a world where 'work from anywhere' is the norm, even short-term lets must cater to the hyper-connected guest.
For UK landlords, technology isn’t just handy—it’s a competitive necessity. With the right blend of automation, smart devices, and guest-focused platforms, you can dramatically increase your property’s income potential, keep overheads lean, and deliver an unforgettable guest experience.
At Statera Estates, our hands-free Airbnb management service exists for landlords ready to take the leap. We leverage all these tools on your behalf—not just to keep up but to set the standard in serviced accommodation. Stay ahead and maximise your property’s earning power the modern way.

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
