Government Leasing for Landlords

Government Leasing for Every Type of Landlord

RentPromise works with every kind of landlord: individuals with one property, portfolio owners, limited companies and SPVs, developers and institutions, and people who became landlords by accident. The government leasing arrangement is the same for all of them. What changes is the concern each brings to it, not how it works.

A one-property landlord worries about the void that wipes out their only income. A portfolio owner wants to stop running a lettings operation. A company wants clean, predictable numbers. Each has its own page below, written for the position they are actually in, so you can go straight to the one that fits.

Which One Are You?

Spotlight on Bestsellers

One or two properties and no wish to run them as a business. A government lease takes on the tenants, the bills and the maintenance, and pays you a fixed rent. For a landlord whose income rests on a single property, that certainty often matters most.

Portfolio Landlords

Several properties that have quietly become a full-time job. Bulk onboarding, one point of contact and predictable income across the whole portfolio, so you stop running a lettings operation and start receiving rent instead.

SPVs & Limited Companies

Property held through a company or special purpose vehicle. We contract directly with your SPV or limited company rather than requiring you to hold it personally, giving clean, predictable rental income that suits corporate accounts and reporting.

Developers & Institutions

Completed developments and larger holdings that need to produce income at scale. Bulk leases give a guaranteed yield from completion, without the sales absorption period or a lettings operation stood up unit by unit.

First-Time & Accidental Landlords

Inherited a property, or never planned to let one and now find yourself doing it. We take on the tenants, the bills and the maintenance from the start, so you get a fixed rent without learning to be a landlord first.

What Is the Same Whoever You Are

The arrangement does not change with the type of landlord. Whether you own one property or two hundred, hold them personally or through a company, the lease is with a government body, the rent is fixed for the term, and RentPromise manages it for you. Your circumstances change the emphasis, not the structure.

Who holds the lease

A local authority, housing association or the Home Office.

A fixed monthly rent

The same figure on the same date for the term, occupied or not.

Repairs and condition

The responsibility of the government body under the lease.

Occupants

Placed and supported by the government body, not by you.

Your fee

£999 on signing, plus a monthly management fee quoted per property.

Who your counterparty is

A public body, whether you own one property or a hundred.

What differs is the scale and the paperwork: a portfolio is onboarded in bulk, a company contracts through its own entity, a developer leases at completion. Those differences are covered on each landlord type page, and we work through whichever applies to you.

Landlord Questions

The structure is the same, but a portfolio is onboarded in bulk with one point of contact rather than property by property. The aim is to replace a lettings operation with a single predictable income stream, which the portfolio landlords page sets out in full.

Yes. Many landlords inherited a property or ended up letting one without planning to. A government lease takes on the tenants, the bills and the maintenance from the start, so you receive a fixed rent without having to learn to run a rental property yourself.
