The new hybrid property management company enters the UK market with an industry-disrupting 14% fee structure designed to boost owner yields.
A new property management provider with deep industry roots has officially entered the serviced accommodation sector. Headquartered in Liverpool, Distinct Management Services offers a complete, end-to-end, hands-off management solution at an industry-defying rate of just 14% + VAT.
With standard full-management fees across the sector typically ranging between 15% and 25%, Distinct Management Services provides property owners with a highly cost-effective alternative designed to maximize profit margins while removing all operational and leasing burdens.
While operating as a fresh, forward-thinking entity, Distinct Management Services brings over 35 years of combined partner experience in the serviced accommodation and real estate sectors. The company’s innovative operational model combines traditional hands-off management with cutting-edge artificial intelligence designed to drive direct guest bookings and reduce reliance on expensive Online Travel Agencies (OTAs).
Helen McNulty, Director of Distinct Management Services, commented:
“We are excited to launch into the market with this new management offer. With our AI integration driving direct guest bookings, we feel this is the true future of the serviced accommodation sector. Property owners deserve a partner that protects their yield while delivering a seamless, modern guest experience.”
Distinct Management Services is built on complete operational transparency.
Louise Riley, Director, added:
“The old model of simply listing a property on Airbnb or Booking.com and waiting for bookings is no longer enough. Our 14% Complete Management Service is much more than simply managing bookings—it is a complete commercial and operational solution designed to maximize the potential of your serviced accommodation investment, giving you the freedom to remain an investor rather than an operator.”
