Letting your property through us

Direct let scheme (DLS)

This scheme allows you to manage your property. We nominate tenants and you choose them.

You and the tenant will then have a standard assured shorthold tenancy agreement.

In this arrangement, we do not guarantee rent. However, we provide a generous incentive amount which will be yours to keep.

A generous one-off incentive payment
A free tenant finder service where we introduce you to a choice of suitable tenants who meet the affordability criteria
A professional dedicated lettings service with no agency costs that provides advice to landlord
Direct Universal Credit payments to you (only under special circumstances upon your request)
Access to advice from a tenancy sustainment officer
24-month assured shorthold tenancy

To meet our requirements, you will need:

a furnished or unfurnished property with white goods (fridge freezer, cooker and oven)

  - working smoke alarms
