Meet our Client
Keystone Real Estate
Owen & Danielle Werakso
Owen and Danielle Werasko, founders of Keystone Real Estate, are renowned for their commitment to delivering outstanding rental properties that combine luxury and comfort.Owner a incredible property developer and Danielle a skilful interior designer with previous work with Marriot International. Their dedication to crafting beautiful living spaces has earned them a reputation for reliability and professionalism in the Newport area.
With over 15 years of experience in property investment, our client had successfully managed a portfolio of family lets, student HMOs, and apartments. While traditional rentals provided steady income, the potential of short-term lets intrigued them. They decided to test this model with their city-centre apartments but needed expert guidance to navigate dynamic pricing, seasonal demand, and operational complexities. That’s where Guesture stepped in.
Crescent Apartments: A Case Study in Success
From Traditional Lettings to Short-Term Profitability
Our clients, experienced property investors, had been successfully renting their three-unit city-centre property in Newport under traditional Assured Shorthold Tenancies (ASTs) for years. However, they saw the growing potential of short-term rentals and wanted to explore higher revenue opportunities—but without the hassle of managing everything themselves.
That’s where Guesture stepped in.
Challenges Before Partnering with Guesture
🔹 Fixed income with limited flexibility under AST agreements
🔹 No control over market fluctuations or premium pricing opportunities
🔹 Maintenance and guest management concerns
🔹 Reliance on letting agents with high fees and low engagement
How Guesture Transformed Their Business
✔ Revenue Growth & Dynamic Pricing: By leveraging real-time market data, event-based demand, and competitor insights, we helped Crescent Apartments achieve a 300% revenue increase compared to their previous AST model.
✔ Occupancy Maximisation & Direct Bookings: Through strategic marketing and exclusive promotions, we secured long-term direct bookings (100+ nights), minimising vacancy periods and ensuring stable income flow.
✔ Hassle-Free Property Management: With in-house cleaning, maintenance, and 24/7 guest support, the owners enjoyed a hands-off experience while their property thrived.
✔ Increased Profit Margins: Despite the additional costs of cleaning and management, profit margins rose resulting in nearly four times the net profit.
✔ Premium Guest Experience: Seamless check-ins, professional housekeeping, and personalised guest interactions led to 5-star reviews and repeat bookings.
