The Process

Six steps to guaranteed rent

01

Get in Touch — Free & No Obligation

Call us or complete our online form. We can give you a free preliminary estimate over the phone before any visit is arranged. No obligation, no cost.

02

Property Viewing and Valuation

A member of our team visits, carries out a full assessment, and discusses terms in person. We typically visit within a few days of your initial enquiry.

03

Agree Terms

We present a formal offer: monthly rent, lease length (2–5 years), management terms, and the mutual break clause. No obligation to proceed until you’re fully satisfied.

04

Certificates & Compliance

Our compliance team arranges all required certifications. Costs can be deducted from initial rent payments if preferred. We manage this end-to-end.

05

Full Photographic Inventory

Comprehensive inventory of every room before occupation, protecting both parties throughout the full lease term.

06

Guaranteed Rent Starts

Lease begins. First automated rent payment scheduled. We assume full management. Your rent arrives every month without you lifting a finger.

Good to Know

Key things to understand before you start

What Is a Guaranteed Rent Lease?

We lease your property directly and act as the tenant. We pay you a fixed monthly rent whether or not the property is occupied.

The 90-Day Break Clause

Every lease includes a mutual 90-day break clause. Either party can terminate early — security with a practical exit.

Certificates You’ll Need

Single lets: Gas Safety, EICR, EPC (min E), smoke & CO alarms. HMOs additionally need an HMO licence, fire risk assessment, fire doors, and emergency lighting. We arrange all of this.

Does It Need to Be Vacant?

Yes — we need vacant possession at commencement. But we can agree terms up to six months in advance so there’s no gap between tenancies.
