What owners get from rent to rent with us in London
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 London works for rent to rent
Average daily rates (ADR) in London routinely outperform every other UK market, with central zones achieving £180–£350+ per night and outer boroughs comfortably hitting £90–£160. With dynamic pricing, multi-platform distribution and tight operations, our London hosts typically earn 30–60% more than they would on a long-let AST — without lifting a finger.
We've built a dedicated London operations team covering every postcode. Same-day cleans, rapid maintenance, on-the-ground inspections and 24/7 multilingual guest support — all run by people who actually live in the city.

London's 90-day rule, explained
Under Section 25 of the Deregulation Act 2015, an entire London home can be short-let for up to 90 nights per calendar year without planning permission. We schedule bookings, mid-stays (28+ nights) and any planning-consented stretches to legally exceed the cap where it applies — while keeping full audit records for the local authority. Every managed London property has been vetted for freeholder consent, mortgage consent-to-let and buildings insurance.

Rent to Rent in London — 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.
