Landlords Guarantee Rent

Urban Housing Ltd takes care of its landlords’ property investments. By this we give you the opportunity to let to the council through our guaranteed rent scheme that safeguards you and your property investment, flexibly arranged around your investment plans.

  • The Guaranteed Rent Scheme features

    • Guaranteed Rent – for 1 to 5-year letting periods.

    This gives landlords a short, mid and long-term return on their property investments.

    • Rent paid – whether occupied or unoccupied property.

    Even if there is a tenancy gap, or time-out for repairs between tenancies, you will receive a secured rental payment.

    • Rent arrears – no risk!

    This is a perpetual anxiety for landlords, but with us, this doesn’t happen – you rent is guaranteed. You are paid by us, on time, every month for the full period of your letting contract.

    • Legal eviction costs – no risk!

    Urban Housing Ltd takes care of all repossession or eviction related matters. You, as landlords, do not pay for any legal representation or Court eviction fees.

    • Tenant property damage – protection.

    We work with tenants to make sure such situations are unlikely to happen and mediate with them in potentially uneasy situations. Where these to-be-avoided situations do occur, we restore the property to its original condition (subject to ‘fair wear and tear’), at no cost to you.

  • Looking after landlords’ interests

    • We provide our landlords with a quality customer service, from the moment they sign with us. There are certain landlord obligations that the law requires. We explain these clearly and help you to meet them as quickly as possible so that your property starts earning income.
    • Professional letting service — high standards.
    • Urban Housing Ltd has very good systems set up and the right staff – experienced and knowledgeable – in place, to make sure you receive your return on your investment.
    • Regular property inspections. We have a plan that we stick to for inspecting landlords’ properties regularly. We report repairs that need your approval for us to carry out or landlord action.
    • Reporting, undertaking repairs. We pride ourselves on our efficiency in undertaking repairs promptly. We make sure they are to high standards — at reasonable costs. We have a team of contractors who understand our essential requirement for honest, good workmanship.
    • Gas and Electrical Safety testing. Urban Housing Ltd understands that landlords have their own professional careers or work commitments that occupy their weekdays. We provide a fluid service to ensure all gas and electrical safety testing and reporting is done on time.
