Why NOMA

NOMA is where corporate Manchester lives and works.

NOMA (short for North of Manchester) is the 20-acre regeneration district around Manchester Victoria station, anchored by the Co-op Group's headquarters. Federation House, Angel Square, Hanover Building and adjacent developments have attracted major tech, professional services and creative businesses over the past decade, making NOMA one of the fastest-growing employment districts in the North of England.

For landlords and investors holding stock in NOMA and adjacent central Manchester postcodes, the story is corporate demand. Weekday bookings are driven by consultants, contractors, business travellers and mid-term stays for professionals on secondment. That guest profile tends to be lower-wear, higher-ADR and more predictable than pure leisure short-let audiences.

Weekend demand shifts to leisure and event traffic, driven by Manchester Arena events, Victoria station connectivity to the North West, and NOMA's growing food and drink scene. That combination gives NOMA stock a balanced demand profile across the calendar.

Beyond Stays manages NOMA and NOMA-adjacent stock across all three of our core services. We market every property across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo, corporate housing platforms and our direct booking channels, priced dynamically against Manchester's event and business calendars, and reported on monthly with real numbers.

If you own residential stock in or around NOMA, we can operate it to a standard the corporate audience expects.

What We Manage in NOMA

One-beds to corporate-let ready portfolios.

One and two-bed apartments

Modern NOMA-adjacent stock, operated across corporate-let, short-let and mid-term stay strategies. The corporate audience is the primary income driver most weeks.

Corporate-let ready portfolios

Landlords with multiple central Manchester units get standardised operations, cross-property benchmarking, and a single point of contact for a portfolio corporate audience.

Multi-unit blocks

6-plus unit developments run as a single P&L. Standardised operations, coordinated freeholder relationships, one monthly report to the freeholder or lead investor.

Two ways we work in NOMA.

01 · Investors and portfolios

Management Only

You own the property. We run everything else, from listings and pricing to guest vetting, compliance and monthly reporting. Fee is a percentage of monthly revenue. Best fit for investors who want a hands-off short-let operation without giving up the upside.

  • Multi-platform distribution
  • Dynamic pricing
  • Compliance stack
  • Monthly investor-grade reports

NOMA FAQ

What Manchester landlords ask us first.

Yes. Co-op HQ, Federation House, Angel Square and adjacent developments generate sustained weekday corporate demand. Mid-term stays (5 to 20 nights) are common. Properties see less wear than pure leisure short-let, and monthly returns can be strong under corporate-let strategies.

Yes. Alongside Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, we distribute NOMA stock across corporate housing platforms and our direct booking channels. That is where the corporate audience actually looks and where we source most weekday demand.

Specific returns depend on the block, finish, floor and strategy. NOMA-adjacent stock often performs particularly well under corporate-let and mid-term stay strategies. We benchmark against comparable stock in the written proposal.

It varies. Some blocks permit, some allow with conditions, some prohibit. We review the lease before onboarding. If short-let is not permitted, we operate under corporate-let or traditional-let strategies, which often suit NOMA stock.

Typical single-apartment onboarding is 7 to 14 days from signed agreement to first listed night. Blocks and portfolios take longer depending on unit count.

Fees are published on each service page. Management Only is a percentage of monthly revenue. Guaranteed Income Management is priced against the property. Block Management is quoted per unit. All numbers in writing.

Transparent Fees

Property management fees in NOMA.

We publish our fees on each service page. Most Manchester operators do not. That is a deliberate positioning choice, not an oversight on their part: opaque fees give the operator room to negotiate on a case-by-case basis. We prefer transparency, because published fees are the fastest way to build trust with an investor-tier landlord.

  • Management OnlyPercentage of monthly revenue, no hidden charges. Full breakdown on the Management Only page.
  • Block ManagementQuoted per unit at scale, decreasing per unit as the block grows. Details on the Block Management page.
