Hello,

we are trying to find a tenant for our studio flat, and just now somebody form Social Housing Solutions rang and offered us a 3 year guarantee rent but the tenant will be an unemployed person. Has anyone dealt with them? Is it worth it and is it really as they said - we'll get ga=uaranteed rent no matter what? We are newbees and don't know much. Thank you for your replies.

I've never dealt with them, but it is important to read through their contract and any small print to ensure that your choice is well-informed. Sometimes what agents say and what their agreement with the landlord says are two different things. To me the only way they can do this is by arranging a rent-guarantee insurance. I guess their commission is higher than average too.

What is social housing solutions? Is it an estate/letting agency or the department with the local authority? To me, if smth sounds too good to be true, its probably not good or not true. wink.gif
