East Midlands

More income, less admin, every month.

East Midlands Airport and the M1 corridor make the region a natural base for business travellers and distribution contractors. Rolls-Royce Derby and Toyota's Burnaston plant generate sustained engineering contractor demand, while Nottingham and Retford's large student populations create graduation-week peaks and steady academic-conference business. Property values remain reasonable relative to the demand, making the region an entry point for many first-time SA investors.

Local Demand

What guaranteed rent costs the Retford owner

There's no fee from the owner to us for a guaranteed-rent arrangement on a Retford property. Our return comes from the spread between the fixed monthly figure we pay the owner and what the property actually earns in the SA market over the term. If the property over-performs, we keep the upside; if it under-performs, the loss sits with us, not the owner.

Practically, that means the owner's tax position is simpler — there's one figure of monthly income to declare against the property — and there's no end-of-year reconciliation against management fees, channel commissions, or maintenance bills. The Retford owner sees the same figure twelve times a year and that's it.

Retford

How the numbers are worked out

We would rather decline than agree a number we cannot sustain. A deal that only works if nothing goes wrong is not a deal.

Retford

What to expect once it starts

Inspections happen periodically and the landlord is told what was found, including when nothing was.

Retford

Who gets the most from it

Where a property is genuinely unsuitable, saying so early costs one conversation. Saying so late costs both sides money.

Retford

The paperwork that has to be right

Certificates are held centrally and renewed before expiry rather than after a reminder from somebody else.

Retford

The limits, stated up front

We do not quote a figure before somebody has looked at the property. A number produced from a postcode is a marketing device, not an appraisal.

Retford

How to begin

There is no obligation at any stage before signature, and that is said plainly rather than buried.

Your Questions

Straight answers for Retford owners.

Still not sure? Ask us about your property and we'll answer for your specific situation.

Will you take a Retford property that is empty now?

An empty property is usually the easiest to start with — there is no tenant to work around and we can begin as soon as compliance is in order.

What happens at the end of the term?

The property is returned in the condition agreed, allowing for fair wear and tear. You can renew, switch to fully managed, or take it back.

Do you pay on time?

The payment date is fixed in the agreement and it does not move with occupancy. That is the entire point of the arrangement.

Can I sell during the term?

Yes, and the agreement sets out how that works. We would rather plan it with you than find out from a sale board.
