We are a family-based business that has great knowledge of the Norwich area. Years of experience in working in Norwich are we know exactly what people that come to Norwich are looking fo.
We achieve high average occupancy that gives you much higher returns. Email marketing, Social Media advertising, SEO are just few ways we increase our occupancy.
We will take care of every aspect of taking care of your home. We will take care of every aspect from housekeeping, interior design, marketing, photography, welcome packs.
The property will be maintained and looked after. Our cleaner goes in once a week as a minimum unlike residential where it’s often six months between visits.
Schedule a call, give us some basic information and we will give you a free property analysis where we explain the potential of your investment.
Due to increasing demands we are always looking for more properties so if you are a landlord looking to sell or rent your property, Ginger & Gold can find the perfect solution for you.
If you are considering selling, we can look to agree a purchase option (often full market value) and discuss this option during a free confidential chat with us.
We work with nationwide businesses, airports and hospitals to help house their professional employees, cabin crews and doctors, who need accommodation in the area.
They cannot commit to long AST’s as they may be in the area for only a short period of time (a few days up to 6 months). That’s where we come in and provide accommodation on a short term basis to them while ensuring we meet our obligations to you as our landlord or client.
We fill gaps by letting the property to well vetted guests who need accommodation while visiting the area for leisure and to families who need accommodation due to work being carried out on their main residence (often insurance companies are funding the stays).
We take on properties which we have first done due diligence on to assess the demand in the area to see if the property would be suitable to be used as a serviced accommodation.
We identify which guest profile is likely to need accommodation in your property – leisure guests, contractors, corporate guests or a mixture. We would never take on a property that is not appropriate for serviced accommodation or holiday letting.
It is from our due diligence that we can deduce if we can offer you one of the following, either :
If your property is unsuitable for our needs but you are still looking for a solution, we are sure to put you in touch with someone who can help! (we have a wide network of associates here in Norfolk)
Option 1 – We become your tenant
Our company becomes your tenant under a company lease agreement and we provide the following benefits :
Option 2 – We manage the property as short term lets on your behalf (like a regular letting agent)
On this option we market your property in the same way as option 1, however the key differences are :- The return varies from month to month and could be higher than the guaranteed rent amount. All profit from short term stays are received by the owner, after costs and fees have been deducted (i.e Bills, linen, cleaning fees). There is no minimum guaranteed rent. (i.e if bookings were low, the return would reflect this). All furnishings are paid for by the owner (we can source and setup this if you wish as an additional service). We receive 15% of the total gross income that we make from bookings on your property, we are highly motivated to get you a higher income for the property as this is beneficial to both parties as you, in turn, get a higher profit.
On both options 1 and 2, there is no hassle to yourself – we take care of everything:- All guest communication, arranging check-in and interim cleans.
We provide completely hands off, hassle free, service – you give us the keys and we give you a monthly return for the duration of the agreement on either option.
We need to analyse your property to let you know what we can give you in term of a return on your investment. We access each property on its own merit to see if it is suitable for serviced short term accommodation and who would stay there.
This involves us viewing the property and then we send through a proposal or let you know what we can offer in terms of income on the options above.
Like any tenant things can get damaged, however unlike a regular tenant, we repair and maintain the property whenever an issue occurs. Our guests have to provide ID, sign terms and conditions and we take a security deposit every stay.
If something gets damaged we charge it directly to the guest out of the security deposit and inform their employer (our guests do not want to upset their employer). We are fully insured with legal indemnity, contents and public liability insurance if the worst should happen.
A key difference with us, is that we have guests, not tenants so they have no right to occupy. If there is a problem – we can remove them. Overall, the property has to stay in hotel standard condition or we could not operate as a business so you can rest assured the property will be looked after – that’s what makes us the perfect tenants as your needs and ours are aligned!
Yes, as part of our analysis we give you figures for your property and compare that to one of our other properties using a real case study.
We have many properties in Norwich looked after by us. We are happy for you to speak to our other landlords / clients for their opinion on us (Contact us and we can get this arranged).
