Homes wanted · CanleyLet, lease or sell your Canley home.
The homes our guests book come from owners like you. Here is how it works in Canley.
Our guests
Who would live in your home.
Most guests book through their employer or on their own account for work. They need a kitchen, a proper bed and somewhere to park, for a few nights or several months at a time.
We host people whose work brings them to the West Midlands: contractors, healthcare staff, consultants and corporate teams, along with families who need a home while theirs is repaired.
Homes that suit
What suits working guests.
The practical things count for more than the finish. This is the checklist we start with.
- A kitchen big enough to cook a proper meal
- Current gas, electrical and energy certificates
- A layout that gives each guest some privacy
- Good repair, with no major works outstanding
- A lender and insurer who allow the use
Three routes
Management, a company let or a quiet sale.
We manage it
Maine Property Solutions manages the home as serviced accommodation and Maine Stays hosts the guests. You receive the booking income less our fee.

Read more →Sell it quietly
Register the home with Maine Property Solutions for introduction to investors on its list.
