Rent your property to us

If you’re a landlord, we can help you to find a tenant for your property.   

Your property does not need to be in Redbridge.  

We’re looking for:   

  • properties of all sizes
  • landlords interested in providing accommodation to households in housing need 

 

Benefits as a landlord  

  • you'll get regular rent payments
  • you’ll have tenants in your property 
  • you’ll get support and advice to manage the tenancy
  • you may receive a cash incentive if applicable 
  • you do not have to pay any fees or commission
  • we’ll run inspections to make sure the property keeps meeting standards 

 

How the schemes work  

We have two schemes available:   

  • Private Sector Leasing 
  • Private Rented Sector   

Private Sector Leasing  

Your property will be rented through an approved lettings agent for three to five years. 

The letting agent will manage and check the property every three months.  

Private Rented Sector   

We’ll find you tenants who can rent your property for at least 12 months.   

We’ll only put forward tenants who we think can pay the rent on time and look after your property.   

You’ll get one month’s rent and deposit paid in advance or a cash incentive.   

You can make a request for the Local Housing Allowance rate entitlement to be paid directly to you.   

 

What you’ll need to provide  

Before we can use your property, we’ll need to inspect it.   

You’ll need to provide us with the following:  

  • proof of property ownership
  • licensing certificate (if needed)
  • energy performance certificate (EPC)
  • gas safety certificate
  • electrical safety certificate 
  • Fire risk assessment
