Byron provides an in-house holiday letting service that will take care of your apartment should you decide to let it out to holiday makers. This high quality service is provided exclusively to Byron owners that offers a turn-key approach to look after marketing and advertising and manage bookings, changeovers and cleaning. There is also an Owner's Portal and online booking system to monitor lettings and book any personal stays real-time. The letting service is charged at a competitive 12% commission which is another great attraction, whereas some alternative third parties may charge upwards of 20%. Of course, this is an optional service and owners may handle any lettings directly should they wish to do so.

On top of all that, there are also WhatsApp groups set up for Byron owners and those that let out their properties which has been highly effective at organising owner meet-ups and bringing together the Byron community.
