Property & Ownership Overview

This charming three-bedroom home in Wigan was referred to KozyGuru by an existing client impressed by our previous results. The property, located just five minutes from a popular retail park, had strong potential but was sitting unfurnished and unused. Owned by an overseas investor, the goal was to fully furnish and launch the home as a high-performing short-term rental. With our expert guidance, the property was transformed into a warm, family-friendly and business-ready Airbnb that now delivers consistent bookings and positive reviews.

Key Issues Faced

Remote Ownership : The owner lived abroad in a different time zone, making local oversight and operations impossible.

‍
No Local Network : Without an on-the-ground team, the owner couldn’t manage furnishing, guest experience, or property maintenance.
‍
Uncertainty : Unsure which letting strategy to pursue and how to activate the property profitably without being physically present.
