Compliance & Licensing

Short-term letting in Scotland comes with clear legal responsibilities, and Edinburgh in particular has specific licensing requirements. We help owners understand what’s needed and ensure their property is set up and managed in line with current regulations.

Compliance isn’t something to deal with once and forget. We help ensure the right standards are in place from the start, and that your property continues to meet requirements as it operates.

  • Scotland-focused licensing awareness and local authority readiness

  • Compliance-led operations built into daily management and cleaning standards

  • Clear guidance on safety requirements and guest-ready setup

  • Proactive issue reporting and maintenance coordination to protect standards

  • A Scottish-run team with real experience operating successful short-term lets

Local Expertise You Can Trust

We’re a Scottish company, run by people who live and work here. Based in Edinburgh and shaped by years living and operating in the Highlands, we understand the realities of managing short-term lets across Scotland - not just the theory.

We don’t manage properties in isolation. We operate our own successful short-term lets, so every system, standard, and decision is informed by real experience, not guesswork.

  • First-hand understanding of Edinburgh’s regulatory environment

  • Practical knowledge of Highland logistics, seasonality, and access

  • Proven systems tested on our own properties

  • Local supplier and maintenance networks you can rely on

  • Decisions made by people who own and operate short-term lets themselves

Stay-HQ delivers a consistently high standard of management with excellent attention to detail. The properties are always exceptionally clean, well presented, and ready for guests, which makes a noticeable difference to reviews and repeat bookings. Their local knowledge and organised approach give confidence that everything is being handled properly.
