Why Liverpool works

Liverpool gives guests a reason to visit every weekend.

Football fans travel from all over the world for home games, and the Albert Dock, the Cavern Quarter and the waterfront keep tourists coming all year.

Weekdays bring hospital staff, university visitors, contractors and business travellers. They're exactly the guests our 30-day stays are built for.

Your local manager

A local manager in Liverpool, not a call centre.

Your home in Liverpool is looked after by a local manager from the Houst network who lives and works in the area. One person who knows your home, your guests and you.

One person, not a queue

No ticket numbers and no explaining your home to a stranger every time. Your manager already knows which key sticks and where the stopcock is.

Knows your area

Your manager knows when your city fills up, which streets guests book first, and which trades actually turn up on time.

Eyes on your home

Your home is checked after every stay, and on medium-term stays you get a photo report at least every 30 days, so you never have to wonder how it's looking.

Everything starts with a free discovery call with our team on Google Meet.

Rules for Liverpool landlords

What the law asks of you, and what we handle.

Short-let rules change from time to time. Here is what applies in Liverpool, and we'll keep you up to date once your home is live.

Night limits

No cap in Liverpool

The 90-night-a-year limit only applies in London. You can let your Liverpool home for as many nights as you want.

Planning permission

Check before you start

Letting a whole home that isn't your main residence all year round can count as a change of use, and Liverpool City Council decides each case on its own facts. We go through this with you, along with your lease and mortgage terms, before your home goes live.

National short-let register

Being introduced

England is introducing a national register of short-term and holiday lets. Once it's running, booking sites are expected to ask for a registration number on every listing. We'll handle the registration for you.

Safety

We check at onboarding

Every short-let needs a written fire risk assessment and working smoke alarms, plus carbon monoxide alarms where needed and an annual gas safety certificate if there's gas. An EPC is needed if your home is let for four months or more a year, which covers most full-time short-lets. A five-yearly electrical check (EICR) isn't a legal requirement for short lets in England, but Guestwise asks every host for one, and most insurers expect it.

Tax and business rates

Speak to your accountant

Short-let income is taxable, and the old furnished holiday let tax rules no longer apply. If your home is available for 140 nights or more a year and actually let for 70 or more, it may pay business rates instead of council tax.

Renters' Rights Act

No tenancy, no AST

Guests stay under a licence for up to 30 days at a time with a set checkout date. We keep access to clean and inspect your home, and on medium-term stays we photograph it at least every 30 days. What landlords in England can do now.

This is general guidance, not legal or tax advice. Rules depend on your property, building and circumstances, so we check yours as part of your valuation.
Liverpool questions

Liverpool landlords ask us.

How much could my Liverpool home earn?

The answer depends on your home's size, street and the time of year. Get your free instant valuation at the top of this page, and we'll talk you through the detail on a free call.

Is there a limit on how many nights I can let in Liverpool?

No. The 90-night limit only applies in London. Liverpool has no cap on nights, although planning rules and your lease still apply.

My flat is in a city-centre block. Can I short-let it?

Often, but many leases restrict short-lets. We'll read your lease and building rules with you before anything goes live.

Do I need to register my Liverpool property?

England is introducing a national short-let register. Once it's running, we'll handle the registration for you and add your number to every listing.

How is a short let different from a long let?

We don't use ASTs or tenancy agreements. Guests stay under a licence for up to 30 days at a time, with a set checkout date, and we keep access to clean and inspect your home. This is general information, not legal advice. For advice on your own home, speak to a solicitor.

Which parts of Liverpool do you cover?

The city centre, Baltic Triangle, Ropewalks, Georgian Quarter, waterfront, Anfield, Wavertree and Allerton. Send us your postcode and we'll confirm.

What brings guests to Liverpool

  • A historic waterfront. The Royal Albert Dock, opened in 1846, is now home to museums, galleries, bars and restaurants, and is one of the most visited places in the city.
  • Universities and medicine. The University of Liverpool, Liverpool John Moores and Liverpool Hope bring graduations and open days, and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, founded in 1898, was the first of its kind in the world.
  • A city that hosts big events. Liverpool hosted the Eurovision Song Contest in 2023 at its waterfront arena, and the convention centre next door brings conferences all year.
  • The Beatles. Beatles sites such as the Cavern Club bring music fans from around the world, many of whom stay three nights or more.

Every one of these brings guests on specific dates. We add them to your calendar and price those nights to match.
