What’s The Difference Between Letting Agents And Total Guaranteed Rent
You’ve got what appears a simple choice, rent the property yourself, give it to a letting specialist OR place it in the hands of a good guaranteed rent scheme. You don’t have the time or the inclination to rent it yourself (and you probably know better) so you’re wondering which way to go. On the surface a estate agent might appear to be the most cost effective option, and for some it is, however once you look at what you’re paying for, you’ll soon realise that for problem properties those expenses can become a lot higher than what you may have first thought, lets see why:
- A management fee for managing the property which is typically a percentage of the monthly income and can range from 10-15%.
- If the property is not let by a Letting Agent you won’t make any rental income and you’ll still have to pay the monthly costs.
- Often there are tenant finding fee every time an agent sources a new tenants on top of their management fee.
- Contract renewals can also be extra and occur every 6-12 months and may also include costs for inventory checks as well as check-in and check-out protocols.
- If there are any maintenance issues, the property owner is responsible for the costs and if the repairs are organised by the letting agency they may also charge an admin fee on top. Often the standard of work is low, which may end up costing you more in the long run.
How Does Total Guaranteed Rent Stack Up Against Other Providers
Your Rent Is Guaranteed
2N Property = ✅
Other Providers = ✅
Generally speaking most services provide a guaranteed rental income of some kind, however there are many differences. Some guarantee a gross rent and then take out all their costs of service which can vary your income considerably, however we guarantee a net income so your income is truly stable and guaranteed.
99.9% Hands Free & Hassle Free

No more worrying about when you’ll fill your property with good tenants, when maintenance will get done, chasing payment or worrying about not getting paid.
Finally, avoid making decisions that come back to bite you because of cashflow issues which are forcing your hand or because of a lack of time that pressures you into taking advice from your agent who isn’t personally invested in your property.
