Which Property Types Perform Best?

When it comes to property types, the size of the property is usually the biggest factor. This is most commonly represented by the number of bedrooms. In some cases, the number of beds or bathrooms can matter too, but across most markets bedroom count explains demand the best.

The next important factor is amenities. Pools are often the most impactful, followed by views, outdoor space (balcony or terrace), and hot tubs. Depending on the type of guest a property targets, practical amenities such as kitchens, laundry, or parking can also play an important role — especially for longer stays.

Below is how occupancy rates vary by number of bedrooms in East Devon.

Looking at property size together with pricing segments (budget / mid-scale / luxury) often reveals what guests are actually looking for in a market. In some markets demand concentrates on large but affordable homes, while in others smaller luxury listings perform better.
