Everything landlords need to know about guaranteed rent with Twibs Properties.
A clear breakdown of how our model works, who stays in your property, the insurance in place, how guests are vetted, and how your property is cleaned and cared for.
A simple, fully managed agreement
We lease your property directly from you on a company-let basis and operate it as serviced accommodation. You receive a fixed monthly rent; we take on the operational risk.
- Step 1
Property Assessment
We review your property's location, layout, and condition to confirm suitability for serviced accommodation.
- Step 2
Agreed Monthly Rent
We propose a fixed monthly rent and a contract term. Once agreed, payments begin from the start date — not from first booking.
- Step 3
We Take Over Management
We furnish (where needed), set up utilities, list the property, and handle every guest booking, enquiry, and check-in.
- Step 4
You Receive Rent, We Handle the Rest
You get a reliable monthly payment regardless of occupancy. We absorb voids, cleaning costs, and day-to-day operations.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a sublet — am I allowed to do this?+
We sign a company let agreement with you, then operate the property as serviced accommodation. You should notify your mortgage lender, freeholder (if leasehold), and insurer; we are happy to provide documentation to support the conversation.
What length of contract do you offer?+
Typically 3 to 5 years, with break clauses available. Longer terms provide more stability for both sides.
What condition does the property need to be in?+
Properties should be clean, well-maintained, and either furnished to a good standard or available unfurnished — we can furnish them at our cost where suitable.
Who pays the bills?+
We pay all utilities, council tax, internet, and TV licence during our tenancy.
What happens if there is damage?+
Damage is covered by specialist short-term let insurance and platform-level guarantees. We coordinate any repairs and keep you informed.
How quickly do you pay rent?+
Rent is paid on a fixed monthly date by bank transfer, regardless of occupancy.
Do you work with letting agents?+
Yes — we regularly partner with letting agents who refer suitable properties. Get in touch to discuss referral terms.
