Rent Protection For Landlords

Our thorough vetting process ensures we let your property to the best possible tenants. However, nobody can truly predict what the future holds, and we understand that life has a way of throwing a curveball now and again – so our rent protection services have you covered.

The most common causes of non-payment of rent are relationships breaking down, people suddenly losing their jobs or a change in circumstance which may affect their ability to pay the bills, such as a health issue.

Real landlord experiences

"We were the victims of a tenant who stopped paying their rent with no explanation or contact with us. The situation dragged on for several months and resulted in the tenant leaving.

The guaranteed rent scheme kicked in smoothly when the issue first arose and was seamlessly managed by the scottfraser staff.

The guarantee scheme paid out several thousand pounds in rent payments and also covered the legal fees for the eviction process. Without it, we would have been in serious financial problems."
