We can offer you

A company let Agreement with guaranteed rent, and 15 years experience in renting and managing properties. So read on for more information about our company and how we can work together. 


 

What we do

We provide housing and support to young people who leave Local Authority Care.

The young people are between 16 – 25 years old and have normally been in LA care prior to joining us.

 

Our young people

Young people are normally referred to us because they are ready to make the transition from dependence to Independence. They have often evidenced during their time in care that they are now ready to live independently in their own homes but with the helping hand of a My Life Key Worker.

The young people will remain with us until such time as they can access council housing or private rented accommodation. 

The Young Person’s Key Worker will visit them at least once a week in their flat to ensure that they are looking after themselves and the property.

 

Why we need you

Our business depends on being able to source property from Agents and Landlords so we have to build good, positive relationships.

Young people that are in ‘care’ are simply a cross section of society.

They are not in care because they have done anything wrong.  They are normally in care because, for one reason or another, their parents have not been able to parent them to a ‘good enough’ standard. 

Without housing, these young people are once again denied the opportunity to aspire for something better. 

 

What we can offer you

Our property management department has over fifty years of combined experience, ensuring that we have the highest standards.

Our commitment to our Landlords is to complete weekly Health and Safety checks on the property.

We are committed to returning properties to Landlords in the condition we took them (allowing for reasonable wear and tear).

 

What we can provide

  • Guaranteed rent, even in the unlikely event that the property becomes vacant

  • Weekly inspections to maintain the condition of your property

  • General maintenance covered free of charge

  • We ensure the property is returned at the end of the tenancy in good order

  • Regular health and safety checks ensuring that the property is up to date with current legislation

 

Does this sound good? There's just a few things we need from you before we can work together. 

 

What we need from you

  • A satisfactory gas safety certificate

  • A satisfactory NICEIC electrical safety report

  • A minimum rating of E on the Energy Performance Certificate

  • A willingness to want to help a vulnerable young person who just needs that chance to succeed
