The Scheme, Explained

How guaranteed rent works.

A fixed monthly rent for one to five years, with the letting, management and compliance handled in full. Here is exactly how it works.

About the Scheme

What is guaranteed rent?

Andy Berthier leases your property directly, for a term of one to five years, and becomes your tenant. From that day your rent is guaranteed: the agreed amount lands on the same day every month, even when the property is empty.

The property is then let and managed in full on your behalf, from tenant sourcing and referencing to compliance, inspections and day to day maintenance. No management fees, no commission, no hidden costs. The figure agreed is the figure paid.

Sometimes called rent to rent, the arrangement gives you the certainty of a corporate tenant with the personal service of a single, accountable point of contact.

The Process

Four steps to stress free letting

01

We agree terms

You choose the lease length, from one to five years. A guaranteed monthly rent is agreed and, once signed, Andy Berthier becomes your tenant.

02

We place the tenants

Tenants are sourced and referenced through councils, charities and approved housing providers. Paperwork, compliance and a full inventory are completed before move in.

03

We manage everything

You are paid on the same day every month. Tenant communication, maintenance and every regulatory obligation are handled for you.

04

We hand it back

At the end of the term the property is returned in the condition it was received, allowing for fair wear and tear.

What Is Included

Everything handled. Nothing hidden.

01

Consistent Income

A fixed monthly rent, paid on the same day every month, so you can plan with certainty.

02

No Loss From Voids

Rent is paid in full even when the property sits empty. Voids become our concern, not yours.

03

No Fees or Hidden Costs

No management fees, no commission, no renewal charges. The rent agreed is the rent received.

04

Dedicated Contact

One person who knows you and your property. No call centres, no being passed around.

05

Responsive Maintenance

Day to day repairs handled promptly through trusted contractors, kept to standard throughout.

06

Full Compliance Handled

Gas, electrical, EPCs, licensing and right to rent checks, every obligation managed start to finish.

End Of Term

Handed back as it was received.

At the end of the agreement the tenants vacate and the property is handed back in the condition it was received, allowing for fair wear and tear. Regular inspections throughout the term mean there are no surprises at the end of it.
