Why rent to us
Guaranteed rent paid each month to you the landlord by RCT Social Lettings Agency, even if the property becomes empty the rent will still be paid.
The amount that you will receive is set at 100% of the Local Housing Allowance rate applicable for the property size and area.
There will be no need for any contact with the Contract Holder.
The Social Lettings Agency’s Housing Officer will conduct property inspections every 6 months or more frequently if there are issues identified.
During the five-year lease you will not be required to undertake any minor repairs or maintenance works.
The Social Lettings Agency will carry out yearly gas safety inspections, five yearly electrical testing (if they fall within the lease period).
If there is any damage to the property this will be rectified by the Social Lettings Agency at no cost or inconvenience to you.
The property will be returned to you at the end of the five-year lease in the same condition as when the lease started, less wear and tear.
