Our Story

TRU Living combines premium hospitality with modern property management to deliver seamless, high-quality travel experiences across short-term rentals, flights, and hotels. Founded by James Boyd and Grant McKay, TRU Living is the product of two complementary careers converging. James brings over a decade of experience in the property sector and e-commerce, while Grant offers a distinguished background in 5-star hospitality and real estate. James’ expertise ensures that each home is professionally maintained, and every booking process is optimized for efficiency and guest satisfaction. His strategic approach, shaped by his career in property and digital innovation, enhances the performance of each listing while maintaining the highest operational standards. Grant’s passion for property management and exceptional service stems from a career in luxury hotels, where he mastered the art of personalized experiences. Now, with over ten years in the real estate industry, he’s seamlessly merged his knowledge of hospitality and property to curate stays that are both effortless and indulgent.
