Guaranteed Rent Scheme & Guaranteed Rental Insurance In Eastbourne

Guaranteed Rent Scheme for Landlords in Eastbourne and Surrounding Areas

Are you a landlord in Eastbourne, Hailsham, Polegate, or the surrounding areas looking for peace of mind when renting out your property? At Bates & Co Lettings, we understand that being a landlord can be both rewarding and stressful. That’s why we offer our Guaranteed Rent Scheme—a hassle-free way to ensure you receive a fixed rental income every month, whether your property is occupied or not.

What Is a Guaranteed Rent Scheme?

A Guaranteed Rent Scheme means we, as your letting agent, pay you a fixed monthly rent for your property. You receive your rent on time, every month, regardless of whether:

• The tenant pays late (or not at all)
• The property is empty between tenancies
• Unexpected issues arise during the tenancy

It’s the simplest way to remove the uncertainty of rental income, giving landlords complete security and financial stability.

Benefits of Our Guaranteed Rent Scheme

By choosing Bates & Co Lettings’ Guaranteed Rent Scheme in Eastbourne, you benefit from:

• Fixed monthly rental income – no surprises, no missed payments
• Zero void periods – we pay you even if the property is vacant
• No rent arrears – never chase tenants for unpaid rent again
• Full property management – we handle tenant find, inspections, and maintenance
• Stress-free letting – enjoy the income without the day-to-day hassle

Whether you own a single buy-to-let in Eastbourne town centre, or multiple properties across Polegate and Hailsham, our scheme gives you predictable income and peace of mind.

Guaranteed Rent Scheme vs. Guaranteed Rental Insurance

Many landlords compare a Guaranteed Rent Scheme with Rent Guarantee Insurance—but they are very different.

• Guaranteed Rent Scheme (Our Service):
  • We pay you directly every month
  • No waiting for insurance claims to process
  • Covers both void periods and arrears
  • Includes full property management
  • The monthly payment you receive will generally be less than if you were fully managed with rental insurance
• Rent Guarantee Insurance (Alternative Option):
  • Protects you if tenants fall into arrears
  • You must pay a monthly or annual premium
  • Claims can take up to 30 days to process
  • Doesn’t cover void periods
  • Includes full property management
  • Up to £100,000 in cover for Legal Expenses

Both have their benefits, but for many landlords in Eastbourne, our Guaranteed Rent Scheme is a more reliable, hands-off solution that takes away all the risk but comes with a larger price tag. However, if you want to maximise your monthly income, whilst still having the secuirty of having your rent covered, a Rent Guarantee Insurance policy could be the best option for you.
