Getting a new short-term rental up and running can feel overwhelming — from furnishing and styling to creating listings, managing accounts, and avoiding common pitfalls. At Foresta Property, we make it effortless.

Our Set Up & Launch service is designed for new owners who want a professional, high-performing property without the stress. We guide you every step of the way:

• Property preparation & styling: Furnishing, décor, and layout designed to attract guests and maximise bookings.

• Platform setup: Creating your Airbnb or short-term rental account, writing compelling listings, professional photography, and optimised descriptions.

• Pricing & strategy: Advice on competitive pricing, booking settings, and launch promotions to ensure a strong start.

• Avoiding pitfalls: We help you navigate the common challenges of running your first short-term rental so you can start earning sooner.

Once your property is ready, you can choose to manage it yourself with confidence, or let us continue to co-host giving you that added support.

With Foresta Property, launching your rental is straightforward, stress-free, and professionally managed from day one — giving you confidence, clarity, and a property ready to perform.

Our Second Home service is offered on a monthly retainer, giving you consistent, reliable local care for your property — without the cost or complexity of full-time management.

Packages start from £170 per month (Vacant Property Services priced accordng to requirements), providing essential protection, oversight and peace of mind while you’re away.

This service is ideal for owners who want their home professionally looked after year-round, with the reassurance that someone local is always keeping an eye on things.

What’s Included in the Monthly Retainer

Your core package includes:

• Weekly property checks
  Regular internal and external inspections to ensure your home remains secure, well maintained and in good condition.

• Alarm support
  Monitoring, response and support for alarm activations and security issues.

• Key holding
  Secure key management for emergency access and authorised entry.

• Contractor access & handovers
  On-site access for trusted contractors, engineers and service providers.

• Owner arrival preparation
  Preparing your home before you arrive — including heating on, lights on, and basic readiness so your property feels welcoming from the moment you walk through the door.

This retainer forms the foundation of your service, ensuring your property is consistently cared for and never left unattended.

If you require Vacant Property Services we can tailor the above to meet your requirements.

Additional Services (Charged Hourly)

Alongside your monthly retainer, we offer a flexible range of additional oversight services, charged at an hourly rate, allowing you to tailor support to your needs:

• Cleaning services

• Bed changes and laundry

• Food shopping and fridge stocking

• Waiting on-site for contractors or deliveries

• Property access supervision

• Ad-hoc checks and visits

• Preparation before family or guest arrivals

This flexible structure means you only pay for what you use, while always having a trusted local team available when you need support.

The retainer provides consistent care and protection, while additional services give you flexibility — without rigid contracts or unnecessary extras.

Whether you want light-touch oversight or a more hands-on oversight service, we adapt our support to suit your lifestyle and how you use your property.
