For Landlords:
At Empathy Housing, we offer a hassle-free seamless service, that maximises your investment and minimises the day-to-day problems with managing properties and tenants.
For Local Authorities:
We offer high quality accommodation that is fully managed, ensuring your community services are delivered to the highest standards.
We handle viewings, contracts, compliance and ongoing management.
Every property we lease means that there’s one more family that has a roof over their heads and out of hotels, hostels and other inconvenient properties.
What’s even better is seeing the social impact we’re making first-hand. We’ve met families who were struggling to make ends meet and thanks to Empathy Housing, they now have a safe and secure place they can call home, however temporary it may be. It’s incredibly rewarding to be part of something that’s making a real difference in people’s lives.
All properties meet fire, gas, and electrical safety standards.
A trusted member of our team will visit your property to assess suitability. If it meets requirements, a statement of works may be prepared to ensure compliance. Once complete, we agree a start date and begin the guaranteed rent arrangement.
