Two ways to partner. One standard of care.
Whether you want a fixed monthly rent or the full earning potential of serviced accommodation, you get the same professional team, the same transparency and the same written commitments.
Guaranteed Rent
A fixed rent, paid on the same date every month — whether the property is booked or not.
GCS Regal Stays rents your property on a professional company let and operates it as high-quality serviced accommodation for business travellers, contractors and families. We carry the occupancy risk; you enjoy a predictable income with none of the day-to-day work.
The rent is agreed with you after a free appraisal, based on your property, its location and local demand. Contract length, notice periods and break clauses are set out clearly before you sign.
What’s included
- Fixed monthly rent on a set date
- No void periods, no tenant arrears
- No management fees or letting commission
- Utilities, Wi-Fi and council tax or business rates covered by us during the agreement
- Routine cleaning and minor maintenance handled
- Regular property inspections with photo reports
- Property returned in the condition received, fair wear and tear excepted
What we handle for you
- Listing creation, professional photography and optimisation
- Dynamic pricing that responds to demand and events
- Guest vetting, communication and self check-in
- Cleaning, hotel-quality linen and restocking
- Maintenance coordination and photo reports
- Calendar sync across all booking channels
- Clear monthly statements of income and costs
Managed Partnership
We co-host and fully manage your property. You keep the booking income, less a management fee.
This is the option for owners who want the full earning potential of serviced accommodation without doing the work. Income goes to you, and our fee is a share of what the property earns — so we only do well when you do well.
Our management fee is tailored to your property, its location and the level of service you need, and is confirmed in writing after your free appraisal. You also stay in control: block out dates for family or personal use, and see every booking.
Earn and learn: we’re happy to explain how everything works as we go, so if you ever decide to run serviced accommodation yourself, you’ll be ready.
Which option suits you?
| Guaranteed Rent | Managed Partnership | |
|---|---|---|
| Your income | Fixed monthly rent | Booking income less our management fee |
| Who carries occupancy risk? | We do | Shared — our fee rises and falls with yours |
| Earning potential | Steady and predictable | Higher, varies with demand and season |
| Fees | None | Tailored management fee, agreed in writing |
| Running costs & bills | Covered by us during the agreement | Paid from income, shown on your statement |
| Personal use of the property | Not during the agreement | Yes — block out dates when you like |
| Your time involved | Virtually none | Minimal — review your monthly statement |
| Best for | Hands-off landlords who value certainty | Owners who want maximum returns and control |
Not sure? Most landlords aren’t at first. We’ll talk you through both on a free call.
We believe there is a better way.
“Rent-to-rent” has earned a mixed reputation. Some operators offer landlords a guaranteed rent, sublet without proper permission, keep the profit hidden — and disappear when things get difficult.
We built GCS Regal Stays to be the opposite. We understand the sacrifices landlords make to get onto the property ladder, and we think you deserve a partner who is open about how the model works, who checks every consent and licence, and who treats your property as carefully as their own.
That’s why we offer both options, explain the numbers honestly, and put every commitment in writing.
Proper permissions
Landlord, mortgage lender, insurer and freeholder consents confirmed before we start.
Licensing & safety
Local licensing, planning, fire risk assessment, gas and electrical safety checked for every property.
Insurance in place
Appropriate specialist cover arranged before guests arrive, with details shared with you.
Independent advice welcomed
We encourage every landlord to have our agreement reviewed by their own solicitor.
Properties that make great serviced accommodation.
We work with landlords, investors, developers and agents across England and Wales.
The right homes
One to four-bedroom apartments and houses, ideally with parking, in good condition — furnished or unfurnished.
The right places
Close to town and city centres, hospitals, universities, business parks, transport links and major projects.
The right situations
Vacant properties, tired of tenancy problems, between tenants, new developments, or simply wanting more from your asset.
Let’s talk about your property.
A free, no-obligation appraisal — and an honest recommendation on which option, if either, is right for you.
