The reason behind the business
I started RG Stays because I want to build a reliable and trustworthy business that property owners can genuinely rely on.
For me, good property management isn't just about managing bookings and collecting fees. It's about looking after someone's property properly, communicating clearly and dealing with problems when they arise.
I want landlords to feel confident that their property is being looked after and that they can speak to a real person when they need to.
As RG Stays grows, I want to keep that same approach. Building a business based on trust, reliability and doing things properly is more important to me than simply growing as quickly as possible.
The foundations
01
We want property owners to know that their property is being looked after and that someone is there to deal with issues when they arise.
02
We believe trust is built through clear communication, transparency and doing what we say we will do.
03
We believe good property management requires attention to detail. We stay involved in the day-to-day operation rather than simply handing everything over to a system.
Our approach
Short-term letting can create opportunities for property owners, but it also comes with a level of management that many owners simply don't have the time or desire to handle themselves.
That's where RG Stays comes in.
We take responsibility for the day-to-day management of the short-term rental, from guest communication and bookings through to cleaning coordination, property inspections and maintenance management.
Our approach is practical, responsive and focused on the individual property rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.

For property owners
We want owners to feel informed and confident about how their property is being managed.
A clear process
01
We start by understanding your property, its location and its potential.
02
We identify the requirements needed to create a successful short-term rental.
03
We prepare the listing, pricing and operational systems.
04
We handle guests, bookings, cleaning coordination, maintenance and the day-to-day operation.
05
We review performance and look for opportunities to improve the property's results.
“I'm not trying to build a business that simply manages properties. I want to build a business that people can trust.”

A personal conversation
If you're considering short-term letting your property and want to understand whether it could be suitable, I'd be happy to have a conversation.
