FAQ

What is Quinn Premier Properties?

Quinn Premier Properties Ltd is a UK property company offering guaranteed rent company lets for landlords, a deal sourcing service for investors, and professional deal analysis tools for property professionals. We are members of the Property Redress Scheme (PRS048260) and registered with the ICO (ZB777011).

What is a Company Let?

A company let is an arrangement where your property is let to a company rather than to an individual. Quinn Premier Properties becomes your tenant, pays you an agreed monthly rent, and takes responsibility for managing the property and accommodating vetted occupants under appropriate agreements.

How does Rent-to-Rent work?

We lease your property for an agreed term and pay you a guaranteed monthly rent, as set out in the agreement. We then manage the property day to day, source and vet the people who stay there, and hand the property back at the end of the term in line with the agreement.

Why should I choose a Company Let instead of a traditional tenancy?

With a traditional tenancy, your income depends on finding and keeping reliable tenants, and the management workload sits with you or a letting agent. With a company let, you have one professional tenant, rent that is paid as agreed regardless of day-to-day occupancy, and a management team looking after the property. Every arrangement has its own considerations, so we always encourage landlords to compare the options for their circumstances.

Why do many landlords choose a Company Let?

The benefits landlords most often value are:

• Guaranteed monthly rent regardless of occupancy, where provided under the agreement.
• Reduced void periods.
• Professional property management with regular inspections.
• Less day-to-day involvement and a more hands-off investment experience.
• Corporate and professional occupants.
• Support with keeping the property compliant.
• Longer-term agreements that provide predictable income.

Every investment strategy has its own considerations, including tax, insurance and lending implications, so it is worth weighing these benefits against your own goals before deciding whether a company let is right for you.

What are the benefits of guaranteed rent?

Predictability. You receive the agreed rent on the agreed day, without chasing payments or losing income while the property sits empty between tenants, subject to the terms of the agreement. Many landlords find this makes planning and borrowing decisions much simpler.

Who stays in your managed properties?

Vetted service users such as corporate clients, working contractors and, where agreed with the landlord, emergency or supported accommodation occupants. The type of occupant is agreed with you at the outset, and occupants stay under the appropriate agreement for their situation.

How do you vet your occupants?

Every service user is vetted before they stay, including identity checks and referencing appropriate to their situation. Occupants agree to clear property rules and occupancy limits, longer stays are housed under an Excluded Licence Agreement and shorter stays under a guest contract, and regular inspections make sure standards are maintained.

How is maintenance handled?

We handle routine maintenance and light repairs directly, covering costs up to £100 per occurrence ourselves. Anything larger is reported to you promptly with our recommendation, and major works only proceed with your approval.

Who is responsible for repairs?

We take care of day-to-day upkeep and minor repairs. Structural matters, major systems and anything covered by your buildings insurance remain the landlord’s responsibility, and where occupants cause damage we hold them liable and facilitate recovering the cost.

What happens if the property becomes vacant?

Where the agreement provides guaranteed rent, you continue to receive it even while the property is empty. Managing occupancy is our risk, not yours, and it is in our interest to keep the property occupied and well cared for.

How long are your agreements?

Terms are agreed individually for each property and are typically longer term, giving you predictable income. Agreements include break clauses for flexibility: the notice arrangements for both parties are set out clearly in the agreement before you sign.

What happens at the end of the agreement?

The property is handed back to you in line with the agreement. Any furniture we purchased remains ours unless agreed otherwise and can either be removed or left for your use. Many landlords choose to renew for a further term.

How do you ensure legal compliance?

The property must be compliant at handover, with a valid Gas Safety Certificate, satisfactory EICR and appropriate fire safety measures. From there, we operate the property in line with relevant regulations, keep occupancy within agreed limits and carry out regular inspections. See the Renters’ Rights section below for how we approach changing legislation.

What insurance is required?

You remain responsible for buildings insurance and should notify your insurer about the company let arrangement. We make sure our operations comply with your policy, and we recommend specialist landlord insurance appropriate to the letting type.

Can I still sell my property during the agreement?

In many cases, yes. Depending on the agreement, a property can be sold with the arrangement in place, which some investors find attractive, or the agreement can be brought to an end using the break clause notice periods. Speak to us early if you are considering a sale and we will work through the options with you.

How do I get started?

Send us a message through the contact page or email info@quinnpremierproperties.com with the property details. We will assess the property, talk you through how the arrangement would work for you, and provide a clear written offer with no obligation.

How do company lets differ from standard residential tenancies?

In a standard residential tenancy, an individual rents the property as their home and the tenancy is regulated under residential tenancy law. In a company let, the tenant is a company rather than an individual, so the agreement between the landlord and the company generally sits outside the assured tenancy regime. The people who stay in the property are then accommodated by the company under the agreement appropriate to their situation, such as an Excluded Licence Agreement or a guest contract.

How does the Renters’ Rights legislation affect this arrangement?

The Renters’ Rights Act and the wider reforms to the private rented sector have changed how residential tenancies in England operate, including the abolition of Section 21 evictions and fixed-term assured shorthold tenancies, together with stronger standards for rented homes. Because a company let is an agreement with a business rather than an individual resident, it is structured differently from the tenancies at the centre of these reforms. The underlying duty to provide a safe, well-maintained property remains exactly the same, and we operate on that basis.

Do landlords still have legal responsibilities under a company let?

Yes. Landlords remain responsible for the fabric of the building and for the core safety requirements, including gas safety, electrical safety and fire safety, along with buildings insurance and any obligations attached to their mortgage or lease. We support this by requiring a compliant property at handover and by managing the property to those standards throughout the term.

How does Quinn Premier Properties support compliance with changing legislation?

We keep our agreements, occupancy arrangements and management practices under review as legislation develops, maintain safe and professionally managed properties with regular inspections, and work with landlords to address any new requirements that apply to their property.

Should I take my own legal advice?

We recommend it. Housing legislation changes over time and its application depends on your specific circumstances, so while we manage our arrangements responsibly and keep them under review, independent legal advice is the right way to confirm how the rules apply to you and your property.

What is Deal Sourcing?

Deal sourcing is a service where we find, assess and package property investment opportunities, then present them to investors ready to act on. It saves you the time of searching, viewing and running the numbers yourself.

Who is the service designed for?

Property investors who want vetted opportunities without doing the legwork, from first-time investors looking for guidance to experienced landlords expanding their portfolios.

How are deals sourced?

We identify opportunities through our network, agents and direct research, then assess each one against the numbers that matter for the strategy, such as purchase price, expected rent, refurbishment needs and projected returns, before offering it to investors.

What due diligence is carried out?

A member of our team, or an appropriately trained representative, carries out a full inspection of the property, and we prepare a viewing inspection document describing its condition, which you receive after the sourcing fee is paid. We carry out due diligence on each property to the best of our ability, and we also complete Anti-Money Laundering checks on our investors as required by law.

Are investment returns guaranteed?

No. We provide educated estimates of figures such as rental income, outgoings, refurbishment costs and return on investment, based on our research and experience. They are estimates rather than guarantees, and you should always do your own research and take professional advice before committing.

What information is included with each deal?

A packaged deal typically includes the property details, the viewing inspection document, and our estimates of the key figures: purchase price, expected rental income, outgoings, any refurbishment costs and projected returns for the relevant strategy.

How do I reserve a property?

Contact us about the deal you are interested in. Reserving a deal involves signing our deal sourcing terms and paying the sourcing fee, at which point the full deal pack and inspection document are released to you.

What fees apply?

The sourcing fee is agreed per deal and confirmed before you commit. If you withdraw within 14 days of signing, our no quibble money back guarantee applies and your fee is refunded minus the standard £250 admin fee. Withdrawals after 14 days are not refundable, and full details are set out in our Terms & Conditions.

What support is provided after purchase?

We remain on hand through the purchase process, and if a deal falls through because your mortgage is declined, we will endeavour to replace it with a deal offering a similar return, provided you can obtain a mortgage within 3 months of signing. Many of our investors also use our deal analysers and company let service to run their new property.

What does the Deal Analyser do?

Our analysers turn a property’s details into a clear investment picture in minutes. Enter the figures and you get realistic profit projections, a deal score out of 100, stress tests, break-even occupancy, return on investment and payback period, plus branded, print-ready PDF reports to share with clients or landlords.

What strategies are supported?

The R2R Deal Analyser covers the three core Rent-to-Rent strategies: Serviced Accommodation, HMO and Social Housing. The BRRR Analyser covers Buy, Refurbish, Rent, Refinance projects.

Which analyser should I use for different investment strategies?

Use the R2R Deal Analyser when you are taking on a property you will rent from a landlord and operate, whether as serviced accommodation, an HMO or social housing. Use the BRRR Analyser when you are buying a property to refurbish, rent out and refinance. If you are doing both, a Full Access membership includes the complete suite.

What information do I need before running an analysis?

The basics of the deal: the property’s location and type, the rent or purchase price, and your expected costs, such as bills, management and any refurbishment budget. The AI market research can provide market rents and nightly rates if you do not have them, and sensible defaults help you get started quickly.

How accurate are the AI Market Estimates?

The AI research produces informed estimates of market rents and nightly rates for an area based on available data. They are a strong starting point for your analysis, but they are estimates rather than valuations, and local conditions vary, so you should always sense-check them against your own research before relying on them.

How is the Deal Score calculated?

The deal score rates a deal from 0 to 100 by weighing the factors that make or break an investment, including projected profit, return on investment, payback period, break-even occupancy and how the deal holds up under stress testing. It gives you a quick, consistent way to compare deals side by side.

How often is market data refreshed?

AI market research runs on demand: each search reflects the data available at the time you run it, rather than a constantly updating live feed. If some time has passed since your last search for an area, run it again for the most current picture.

Why are AI estimates cached?

Recent results are kept temporarily so that repeat searches for the same area return instantly and the tool stays fast and available for all members. Running a fresh search updates the figures.

Can I edit the AI-generated values?

No. Fields generated by the AI market research are read-only, because they are produced automatically from market data and AI analysis. Locking these fields preserves the integrity and consistency of the AI results and ensures the estimates cannot be altered, deliberately or by accident. Every other field in the analyser remains fully editable, so you can adjust your own assumptions, costs, rental figures and other financial inputs to model different scenarios and tailor the analysis to your own investment approach.

Can I download investor reports?

Yes. The analysers generate print-ready PDF reports, including an investor-ready Deal Sourcing Summary and a professional Landlord Offer letter, branded with your own company name and logo. Your branding is saved in your browser, so you set it once and every report you create uses it.

Are the results financial advice?

No. The analysers and their AI features produce estimates to support your own research and decision-making. They are not valuations, guarantees of performance, or financial, legal or investment advice, and you should verify figures independently and seek professional advice before committing to any transaction.
