For property owners
Hand us the keys and we'll pay you a guaranteed monthly figure whether the property is occupied or not — or manage it for you on a percentage if you'd rather take the upside yourself.
Two ways to work with us
Most landlords want one of two things: a number they can rely on every month, or the best possible return with someone else doing the work. We do both.
Option one
We take the property on a company let and pay you a fixed sum on the same date every month for the length of the agreement. Whether it's full, empty or between guests is our problem, not yours.
Option two
We run the property as serviced accommodation on your behalf and take a percentage of what it earns. Higher ceiling than a standard tenancy, and you still don't do any of the work.
Side by side
| Guaranteed rent | Full management | High street agent | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly income | Fixed, agreed up front | Variable, typically higher | Fixed, minus fees |
| Void periods | Paid regardless | Absorbed by occupancy across the month | You lose the income |
| Fees to you | None | Percentage of revenue | Letting fee plus monthly management |
| Cleaning | Included | Included | Not provided |
| Day-to-day maintenance | We handle and cover it | We handle, you cover parts | Billed to you with a markup |
| Wear and tear | Ours to manage | Managed on your behalf | Yours, at the end of the tenancy |
| Your involvement | None after handover | A monthly statement to read | Calls, approvals and decisions |
We're selective, because we take the risk on occupancy.
Questions
Two routes. Either we take your property on a guaranteed rent agreement and pay you a fixed monthly figure whether it is occupied or not, or we manage it for you on a percentage and you take the upside. Both include cleaning, maintenance coordination and guest management.
Typically three to five years on guaranteed rent, which is what lets us commit to a fixed monthly payment. Management agreements are more flexible and can be reviewed annually.
We cover day-to-day wear, cleaning and minor repairs. Structural work, appliance replacement and anything covered by your building insurance stay with you as the owner. It is all set out clearly in the agreement.
The same or better. We inventory everything at the start, inspect regularly, and hand back professionally cleaned with a full condition report.
