North East
Guaranteed Rent in Durham.
Hands-off Airbnb, short-let, and holiday let management across the North East. We handle the work, you collect the income.
North East
What we do behind the scenes for you.
The North East's mix of contractor-heavy employers, university populations, and tourism to Northumberland creates a genuinely year-round short-let market. Newcastle's tech scene and Sunderland's Nissan supply chain generate sustained midweek stays; Durham's tourism and the offshore wind economy at Teesside add contractor and leisure layers. Strong demand, competitive property prices, and a steady pipeline of business travellers make the region attractive for SA investors.
- Nissan Sunderland and the Teesside chemical cluster drive steady contractor demand
- Newcastle's tech scene and university population fuel corporate and graduation-week stays
- The offshore wind and renewables supply chain creates long-stay contractor demand
- Local regeneration projects and infrastructure investment are supporting property values across the North East
- A large student and young professional population creates a reliable tenant pipeline

Local Demand
Guaranteed rent in Durham: what you actually get
Guaranteed rent on a Durham property means a fixed monthly payment from us to the owner regardless of whether the property is occupied that month. We take the occupancy risk; the owner takes a predictable monthly figure. For Durham landlords who want the stability of a long-term tenant arrangement without the void months, the chasing of rent, or the late-night maintenance calls, that's the trade.
We then run the property as serviced accommodation across Durham and North East's short-let market, recovering our position via the upside on dynamic nightly rates. The owner doesn't see any of that operational layer — they see the same monthly figure landing on the same day, every month, for the agreed term.

Durham
How the figure is reached
We appraise before we quote. Any figure offered before somebody has looked at the property is a guess, and a guess is not something a landlord can plan around.
Durham
The process, step by step
The process is short: appraisal, terms, paperwork, handover. Most of the elapsed time is compliance documents, which is why we ask for them early.
Durham
Who gets the most from it
Portfolio owners tend to find it simplest, because consolidated reporting removes the per-property admin that makes a portfolio tiring.
Durham
The compliance side
The paperwork is dull and it is the part that protects an owner when something goes wrong. It gets done properly rather than quickly.
Durham
The limits, stated up front
We do not take on property we do not think will work. Turning something down costs us a fee and saves an owner a year of disappointment.
Durham
The first step
We would rather spend longer on the first conversation and less on fixing a misunderstanding later.

Your Questions
Common questions about Durham.
Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.
How soon can guaranteed rent start on a Durham property?
Usually within a week or two of agreeing terms, provided the compliance paperwork is in place. Missing certificates are the usual delay.
Is there a fee?
There is no separate management fee under guaranteed rent — our position is the difference between the fixed sum we pay you and what the property earns. That is the model.
What if the property earns more than expected?
We keep the difference; that is the other side of us carrying the void when it earns less. If you want the upside instead, fully managed is the model that gives it to you.
Can I see the agreement first?
Of course, and you should have it looked over. We would rather you read it properly than sign it quickly.
