Agency Add-Ons: Which Ones Are Worth the Money (and Which Aren't)?

Not all letting agency extras are created equal. While some premium services genuinely save landlords time and increase earnings, others may quietly chip away at your profits with little return. So which service add-ons are actually worth the investment?

High-Value Add-Ons Worth Considering

• 24/7 Emergency Response: Critical issues don’t keep office hours. A round-the-clock response team can protect your property and reassure guests.

• Guest Screening: Effective vetting reduces the risk of property damage and disruptive stays, especially for short lets.

• Dynamic Pricing: Automated pricing tools optimise your nightly rates based on market trends, helping you boost occupancy and maximise income.

Low ROI Extras to Be Cautious Of

• Overpriced Cleaning Services: Unless quality is guaranteed, these are often marked up well beyond what independent cleaners charge.

• Generic Marketing Packages: Templated listings and basic photo uploads rarely justify the cost.

• Vague “Admin Fees”: If your agency can’t explain exactly what you’re paying for, it’s likely not a value-driven service.

How to Assess an Add-On’s Impact

Ask yourself: Does it reduce vacancy? Improve guest satisfaction? Save hours of your time? The best add-ons clearly pay for themselves — in fewer complaints, higher occupancy, or a smoother operation overall.
