Providing a guaranteed rent for an owner means that HomeCome has to take all of the risks of being a landlord
The Guarantee – HomeCome will enter into a legally binding lease for a minimum of 2 years and up to 5 years according to your preference to undertake all the letting activities and take all of the risk of letting. In return HomeCome will pay you a guaranteed rent and expect you to take out non contents property insurance.
HomeCome becomes responsible for the typical risks that landlords face, including:
You may have already tried to let you property yourself or used a letting agent.
Usually you will have borne the above risks even if you have used a letting agent.
The letting agent would have provided a tenant finders service – and charged you for it; or “rent insurance” and charged you for it. But in the main you will have been exposed to the above risks.
