Read more about us

Flexie Estate Agents lets, manages and sells homes in Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch, and it starts with properties: furnished apartments we manage in Bournemouth, let for 28 nights or more, with electricity, gas, water, fibre Wi-Fi, council tax, parking and a gym included. Landlords get tenant find, rent collection or full management from the same team; owners who want to sell get a free valuation and a sale run through to completion.

Why landlords and vendors use us

We have let and managed homes in this town since 2018, and we run 130 furnished apartments in Bournemouth day to day: marketing them, checking the people who move in, keeping the buildings compliant and answering the phone at midnight. The same team does that for private landlords, on ordinary tenancies, and sells for vendors. We are rated 4.9 out of 5 on Google from 786 reviews and Excellent on Trustpilot, and our reviews show every one in full with its platform and date. We are part of the same group as the Flexiestays furnished-stay platform and Sea Breeze Property Services, which is how a flat here can be let three different ways.

For landlords

We find and reference tenants, put the tenancy on a legal footing under the Renters' Rights Act, and if you want, collect the rent, inspect, arrange repairs through local contractors and renew every certificate on time. Letting agents and property management explain the three service levels, our fees name them, and the instant rent estimate gives a first figure for your property. A furnished flat can also earn through winter lets. Start at the landlords hub.

For tenants

The furnished apartments we manage are let for 28 nights or more with no fixed term and a cleaning and security deposit only, for people relocating, working on a contract, placed by an insurer or waiting for a purchase to complete. Long term lets explains how a stay works, property to rent lists what is free now, and the tenants hub covers renting a landlord's home on a tenancy.

For sellers and buyers

A free, no obligation property valuation is the first step, and selling your property sets out what follows: photography, the portals, viewings, offers and the legal work to completion. The sellers hub collects the guides; buyers can register their search at the buyers hub.

Where we work

Our office is at 557 Charminster Road, Bournemouth, and enquiries are answered from 9am to 5pm every day. We cover Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch, the neighbourhoods between them from Sandbanks to Highcliffe, and the towns beyond: every area we cover.

For landlords

What could your property let for?

A monthly rent estimate in under a minute, then a free rental valuation from local letting agents who know each street.

I've had a really positive experience

I've had a really positive experience with the Airbnb building services, and I'd especially like to recognise Nat, Jack, and Reece for how helpful, friendly, and professional they are. They're always approachable, responsive, and willing to go the extra mile to help resolve any issues or answer questions. Their attitude makes a real difference and creates a welcoming experience for residents and guests. A special mention has to go to Natalie, who has been exceptionally helpful. She is consistently kind, attentive, and proactive, and always makes sure things are dealt with properly. Her dedication and willingness to help really stand out and are very much appreciated. Thank you to the whole team for all your hard work, it definitely doesn't go unnoticed!

Lovely and cosy apartment in the centre

Lovely and cosy apartment in the centre of Bournemouth, and managing to still be quiet. Close to the train station (and buses), big Asda superstore, town centre, park and the beach. I have stayed so far in 2 different apartments in the same building on 2 separate occasions. Both, lovely decorated, with everything one may need for a short or longer stay. A kind of apartment you just want to stay in the whole day! I would definitely recommend.

Outstanding from start to finish

The apartment exceeded our expectations with its modern design and thoughtful touches throughout. Walking distance to both the seafront and shopping areas made it incredibly convenient. Clear instructions, responsive host. Would absolutely stay here again on our next visit to Bournemouth.

Modern, clean and superbly located

Lovely apartment in very close proximity to Bournemouth town centre and beach. Modern, very clean and well equipped. Onsite parking was a big plus, making it easy to explore the area. The host was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

Second stay, and we'll be back

Great apartment at a perfect location. Jack and the team were so easy to deal with. This is our second time at this apartment block and we'll definitely be returning. Clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

How it works

Letting your property, step by step

  1. A free valuation

    We visit, read the lease and the certificates, and give you a rent range for the property with the reasons, plus our fees in writing.

  2. Marketing and referencing

    Photographs, a floor plan and the listing go out to the portals and our registered tenants. We show the property and reference every adult before you accept anyone.

  3. Move in, then managed

    Tenancy agreement, deposit protection, certificates and a photographed inventory on the day. With management, we collect the rent, inspect and arrange repairs.

FAQs

Flexie Estate Agents: questions

What does Flexie Estate Agents do?

Four things. We find, reference and manage tenants for landlords; we let and manage 130 furnished apartments in Bournemouth for stays of 28 nights or more; we value and sell homes; and, through Sea Breeze Property Services, we manage holiday lets and Airbnbs. One local team, one office on Charminster Road.

Which areas do you cover?

Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch and the neighbourhoods between them, from Sandbanks and Canford Cliffs to Southbourne, Mudeford and Highcliffe, plus Wimborne, Ferndown, Ringwood, the New Forest and the Purbeck towns. The furnished apartments we manage are all in central Bournemouth and on the West Cliff.

What is included in a long term let?

Electricity, gas, water, fibre Wi-Fi, council tax, the TV licence, a private parking space and a 24-hour gym. The apartments are fully furnished with linen, towels and kitchen equipment. The minimum stay is 28 nights, there is no fixed term, and a standard cleaning and security deposit is the only payment beyond the stay.

What services do you offer landlords?

Three levels of letting: tenant find, rent collection and fully managed, with referencing, the legal checks, deposit protection, inspections and repairs through local contractors. A furnished flat can also be let for winter and long stays through Flexiestays, and a holiday let can be managed by Sea Breeze Property Services for 16% commission.

How much are your fees?

Letting and sales fees are confirmed in writing, with any VAT, before you instruct us, and our fees page names each service level. Tenants pay nothing beyond the permitted payments under the Tenant Fees Act. Holiday let management through Sea Breeze is 16% commission with no retainer.

Can you sell my home?

Yes. We give a free sales valuation, prepare and photograph the property, market it on the portals and to the buyers and tenants already on our books, accompany viewings and chase the sale through to completion. Our sales service is new, so there are no homes listed for sale yet; buyers can register their search.

How do I book a viewing?

For one of the furnished apartments we manage, book online or send an enquiry with your dates and we will arrange a viewing if you are local. For a property let or sold through us, use the enquiry form on its listing or call 01202 619868 between 9am and 5pm on any day.

What do your reviews say?

We are rated 4.9 out of 5 on Google from 786 reviews and Excellent on Trustpilot, both read on 28 September 2026.
