Case studies

Miss F.

Owned a 2 bedroom flat and had emigrated to New Zealand. She had rented successfully for 1 year, but this time was struggling to rent her flat. After it had been vacant for over 2 months, she contacted Fixed Rent, who inspected the property and took the property on within a week. Now Miss F. Has the peace of mind that her property will not suffer any void periods and is being looked after by capable property professionals, who care about the property.

Mrs D.

Her 1 bedroom flat had been in the family for many years. Her 3 year lease with a local housing association had come to an end, and they had mutually decided not to renew. The property was in a very poor condition and was not suitable to be rented in the private sector. Fixed Rent refurbished the property completely to a clean and modern standard. At the end of the 3 year agreement, Mrs D can look forward to getting the property back in an unrecognisable condition and one that will be worth considerably more in capital and rental terms.

Mr P.

He had took a terrific job opportunity in LA and wanted to rent his 2 bed flat in Notting Hill, but he knew that he would be so busy that he would have little or no time to devote to the letting of his property. Fixed Rent took over his property to allow him to dedicate his time to his new job in the states without having to worry about his flat in London.

Mr & Mrs S.

Had a rental investment in London, but were finding it increasingly difficult to manage the property due the distance from the home. Fixed Rent offered them a 3 year guaranteed rent, at a price similar to what they had been achieving on the open market, which saved them literarily days of wasted trips to London.

Mr S.

Had recently inherited a flat from his late aunt. Having no experience of letting and being quite daunted by the prospect, he contacted Fixed Rent, who refurbished the property and gave him the security and peace of mind he desired.

Mr F

Having tried in vain to sell his house, he wanted to move with his family to a larger property. The guaranteed rental scheme offered a viable alternative to selling, as Mr F remortgaged to a fixed rate, and Fixed Rent offered him the chance to fix his rental income.
