How do guaranteed rent schemes work in Newcastle upon Tyne?
A vetted guaranteed rent provider leases your Newcastle upon Tyne property for 3 years or more and pays the agreed rent monthly. We find the organisation and negotiate the lease for you.
Newcastle is part of the North East Combined Authority, which brings together councils across Tyneside, Wearside, Durham and Northumberland. Providers in the region look for long-term homes, and we introduce Newcastle landlords to the ones that fit.
Tyneside flats, family houses and HMOs can all suit different organisations. We'll look at the specific address and tell you honestly whether we think there's provider interest.
A lease to an organisation means you are not managing individual tenancies. The provider looks after occupiers and routine upkeep as the agreement sets out, and you receive rent by BACS on the same date each month.
Can I lease my property to the council or a housing association in Newcastle upon Tyne?
Yes. Through Social Ready you lease to a vetted guaranteed rent provider, such as a housing association, council or supported housing provider. The local authority in Newcastle upon Tyne is Newcastle City Council.
You sign a lease with that organisation; you are not renting to the council's tenants directly, and the organisation is responsible for the people who live in the home. We vet and financially check every provider before we introduce them.
