What guests say about the homes we run.

These reviews come from our public Airbnb host profile. They are the best evidence that our managed properties are clean, well-maintained and properly operated — the foundations of higher landlord returns.

"We had a wonderful stay! The property was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a pleasant and relaxing visit. We really enjoyed our time here and hope to visit Liverpool again. If we do, we'd be more than happy to stay at the same property again. Highly recommended!"

"Excellent accommodation for our team of six. The keybox access was straightforward, and we had reliable key management throughout our week-long stay. The property provided comfortable facilities and was well-maintained. The host was responsive and helpful. We'd happily return here for future projects."

"Beautiful house, we had amazing stay. Good area to stay if you are visiting Dover and surrounding. Nice clean house."

Usman

"We were offered an additional property 5 days before travel due to works on the selected property. Found communication very efficient and an alternative property had already been selected before we were contacted so we could make an informed decision. We found AV Property to have a clean home, ample kitchen facilities and it was well furnished for long and short stays."

"Everything as described."

Case study & results FAQs

Yes — once a landlord gives us permission. We never publish names, addresses or exact figures without written consent. If you're an AV Property landlord and would like your story featured, please get in touch.

Most well-located UK properties earn 30–60% more net income on short-lets than on a standard long-let AST, after our 12% + VAT management fee and operating costs. The exact uplift depends on location, size, finish and seasonality.

The Airbnb guest reviews and aggregate rating are real. The landlord outcome cards are illustrative estimates based on our earnings calculator and typical ADR/occupancy data — not a promise of your specific result. We provide a free, tailored valuation for every property.

Our management fee is 12% + VAT on a 12-month plan, 18% + VAT on six months, and 22% + VAT on a flexible rolling plan. Full fee details are on our Fees page.
