How do guaranteed rent schemes work in Nottingham?
A vetted guaranteed rent provider leases your Nottingham property for 3 years or more and pays the agreed rent monthly. We find the organisation and negotiate the lease for you.
Nottingham is part of the East Midlands Combined County Authority, which also covers Derby, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. Providers in the area look for homes they can lease long term, and we match them with Nottingham landlords.
The city boundary is tight, so many homes people think of as Nottingham sit in Rushcliffe, Broxtowe or Gedling. We look across all of them, and we'll tell you plainly whether your property is likely to attract a provider.
Leasing to one organisation replaces tenant-finding, rent chasing and void planning with a single monthly payment by BACS, and the provider handles occupiers as the agreement sets out.
Can I lease my property to the council or a housing association in Nottingham?
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 Nottingham is Nottingham 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.

HMOs can suit supported-living providers who house several people in one home. You deal with one leaseholder instead of individual room lets.
In England, an HMO let to 5 or more people forming 2 or more households needs a mandatory HMO licence from the council, and councils can run additional licensing for smaller HMOs. Check with Nottingham City Council whether additional or selective licensing applies to your address.
