Maine Stays / Homes wanted / Long Buckby
Homes wanted · Long BuckbyPut your Long Buckby property to work.
The homes our guests book come from owners like you. Here is how it works in Long Buckby.
Who books
Working guests, not holidaymakers.
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 Northamptonshire: contractors, healthcare staff, consultants and corporate teams, along with families who need a home while theirs is repaired.
What we look for
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
The choices
Management, a company let or a quiet sale.
We manage it
Your home stays yours. We handle everything guests need and send you a statement each month showing every booking and our fee.

For owners who would rather have a known figure than a share of each booking.
Read more →Sell it quietly
For owners ready to sell privately: an introduction to investors, vacant or with occupiers in place.
Read more →Council placements
Council placements need whole homes and the right consents. Maine Property Solutions arranges both with you.

Questions
Questions from owners in Long Buckby.
Is Maine Stays the same company as Maine Property Solutions?
Maine Stays is a trading name of Maine Property Solutions Ltd. Owners sign with Maine Property Solutions.
Could my home be used for council housing?
A whole, self-contained home can be, once the lender, freeholder and insurer have agreed.
What if my home needs work?
For a quiet sale any condition is considered. For the other routes it needs to be in good repair.
Do you take flats?
Yes, self-contained flats in well-kept blocks.
