Homes wanted · DudleyHomes wanted in Dudley for working guests.
One conversation covers every route. There is no fee to talk and nothing to sign until you decide.
Our guests
The guests your home would host.
The homes we run host guests who work: in construction and engineering, in the NHS, in offices and on projects across the West Midlands.
Teams on a project often want to stay together without sharing a bathroom. Families between homes want space and normality. A whole house answers both.
What works
What makes a Dudley home suit us.
A home does not need to be large or new. It needs to be self-contained, well kept and easy to live in.
- Furnished, or ready to furnish
- Vacant now or coming vacant soon
- Three bedrooms or more, or two generous ones
- Within reach of employers, hospitals or good roads
- Space to work at a table as well as to relax
The choices
What happens to the home.
We manage it
Management keeps the upside with you: when the home is booked you earn. We take a fee on the room revenue only.
Read more →Lease it to us
Certainty over upside: one company let agreement and one fixed payment, set out in writing first.
Read more →Sell it quietly
No board outside and nothing online. The home is introduced quietly to investors who buy for their own portfolios.
Read more →Council housing
Council placements need whole homes and the right consents. Maine Property Solutions arranges both with you.

Before you decide.
The authority for Dudley is Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council. We raise the planning and council tax points early, so there are no surprises later.
Maine Stays runs The Merry Hill Lounge in Brierley Hill, inside the Dudley borough.

Dudley gives you the Black Country Living Museum and Dudley Zoo and Castle within the same few miles, with the castle, the zoo and Castle Hill Woodland all inside the council's Castle Hill Vision. The new Dudley Transport Interchange puts bus and tram together in the town centre, at the Flood Street terminus of the West Midlands Metro's first phase from Wednesbury through Tipton. Russells Hall Hospital, DY1 2HQ, is the borough's acute hospital. The Merry Hill Lounge, our closest home, sits in Brierley Hill in the same borough; tell us your dates and we will source you accommodation here.
Maine Property Solutions sets out its own company let terms for Dudley and its management service.

Questions
Questions from owners in Dudley.
Do you need the home to be vacant?
For management or a company let, yes, when it starts. For a quiet sale it can be let.
Who cleans between guests?
Maine Stays arranges cleaning and linen between stays.
What about council tax?
It depends on how the home is used. We go through it with you before anything starts.
Can you take more than one home?
Yes. Each home is looked at on its own merits.
