Rent to Rent Lancaster
Turn your Lancaster property into a guaranteed 3–5 year income. We sign a commercial lease with you, pay a fixed monthly rent every month regardless of occupancy, and manage the property as a fully-licensed serviced accommodation.
Lancaster pairs two universities and a large hospital with Lake District and Morecambe Bay tourism just up the road. Lancaster University and Cumbria's campus, Royal Lancaster Infirmary placements, Heysham power-station work and graduation weekends give year-round demand.

What owners get from rent to rent with us in Lancaster
Fixed monthly rent
Paid on the same day every month for the full 3–5 year term, in or out of season, regardless of occupancy or arrears. Standing order, straight to your account.
Zero voids, zero arrears
You're not letting to a tenant — you're leasing to AV Property. Our covenant, not a stranger's. No Section 21, no Section 8, no eviction risk.
Property professionally maintained
Cleaned 60–120 times a year, inspected weekly, minor maintenance under threshold handled at our cost. Property returned in better condition than a single-tenant AST.
All compliance and licensing handled
STL licence (Scotland), English register, London 90-day rule, HMO rules, Gas Safe, EICR, PAT, insurance — every line item is our responsibility for the term of the lease.
Why Lancaster works for rent to rent
Well-run Lancaster properties typically achieve £80–£140 a night, with contractor, relocation and insurance mid-stays (7–90 nights) filling the quieter weeks. Our management fee is 12% + VAT and includes dynamic pricing, multi-platform listings, housekeeping, linen, guest care and compliance.
We already operate across North West England, so Lancaster owners get the same setup our other cities get: local cleaning and maintenance cover, 24/7 guest messaging, monthly statements and a free 48-hour income assessment. Prefer certainty? We also offer guaranteed rent in Lancaster on 1–5 year terms with no voids and no fees.

Rent to Rent in Lancaster — questions we get asked
Frequently asked questions
Typically 105–125% of open-market AST rent for the same property, locked for 3–5 years. Exact figures depend on the city, size and condition of the property — we quote a firm number after a free 48-hour valuation.
Yes, when set up correctly. It's a commercial lease with explicit sublet permission, not an AST. You need mortgage consent-to-let, freeholder permission where a lease applies, and appropriate insurance — we walk landlords through all three.
You have the same remedies as any commercial landlord. In practice, our portfolio, filed accounts, professional indemnity cover and property redress registration make default extremely unlikely. Ask for references from live rent-to-rent landlords — we'll provide them.
3 to 5 years is standard. We invest £4,000–£10,000 per property in furniture and onboarding, so short contracts don't work commercially for us — you get the benefit of a long lock-in.
No. We furnish, style and photograph the property at our cost as part of onboarding. You get it back at the end of the term furnished to a higher standard than most landlords would provide themselves.

What our guests say
Every review below is a real, verified guest review from our Airbnb host profile — nothing written in-house.
We had a wonderful stay! The property was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a pleasant and relaxing visit. We really enjoyed our time here and hope to visit Liverpool again. If we do, we'd be more than happy to stay at the same property again. Highly recommended!
Excellent accommodation for our team of six. The keybox access was straightforward, and we had reliable key management throughout our week-long stay. The property provided comfortable facilities and was well-maintained. The host was responsive and helpful. We'd happily return here for future projects.
Beautiful house, we had amazing stay. Good area to stay if you are visiting Dover and surrounding. Nice clean house.
