When do people visit Slough?
Short letting is always in demand in Slough, so a well taken care of rental property in this area is capable of generating a solid rental income stream year-round for its owner. There is the traditional UK peak period during the summer when tourists looking for a vacation rental will join the steady stream of business and corporate visitors that the town is ideally placed to receive – but for reasons that we’ll look into below, that bustling business travel market can be relied upon for steady demand.
As the seasons and reasons for travel to the town change throughout the year, our team can utilise our dynamic pricing to help boost your earnings to match demand. Landlords or those who manage a house or property will have full access to their property’s calendar, and can easily change the availability at any point.
Corporate Travel
Corporate and business travel is the biggest motivator for travel to Slough in terms of sheer volume of people. The town is situated in a prime logistical location, right where the M4 and the M25 meet. The M25 is the London ring road, and the M4 is the main transport artery through the UK’s equivalent of Silicon Valley. As a result it’s often here that all manner of business involving computing, technology and businesses in London meet – but that prime location has also attracted a number of large companies to Slough too. These companies include Blackberry, McAfee, DHL and Telefonica – who will need to welcome business travellers from abroad on a year-round basis.
With the ever-growing popularity in recent years of ‘hybrid working’ (a situation that sees someone work from home or another location that’s local to them but far from their employer’s headquarters, and only travelling in to that HQ when necessary), there’s even more of a short-term let market in Slough, largely because it is in that ‘sweet spot’ where the hustle and bustle of London is both far enough away that Slough doesn’t feel a part of it, but the capital is easily accessible when you do need to be there.
Wherever they may be coming from though, and for whatever reason, with the help of the best Airbnb management Slough has to offer you can make sure that your corporate guests are well looked after, and ready to leave you positive guest reviews.
Corporate travel is a good thing for hosts too. Because we provide elite Airbnb management across the UK, we see a mix of properties booked and lived in by all kinds of guests. Here’s a few reasons why hosting business travellers is beneficial:they often pay in advance, stay longer, and stay / re-book more regularly. .
As we’ve seen with business travellers in other cities, business guests are often looking for short letting opportunities rather than hotels, and your short term let could be just the right place to stay for them – especially if it’s prepared and managed by the team behind the best property management service in the area – SevenStays. As a first-rate property management company, we select any independent third party we work with carefully. Whatever your house rules are, you can be sure they’ll be respected.
