Guaranteed Rent: Made for Crayford Landlords?

Crayford property interior

What most Crayford landlords want, and rarely get, is a rental property that behaves like a proper investment: fixed income, no surprises. That's the outcome guaranteed rent is designed to deliver.

We're not a letting agent taking a monthly cut. We sign the lease with you and pay the rent ourselves, backed by 130+ council and government contracts and a two-decade track record.

Crayford attracts tenants drawn to its greyhound stadium heritage and riverside setting, which helps keep placement times short. Our team handles the vetting, check-in, and ongoing management, you just receive the rent.

British Housing also operates throughout Bexley — covering postcode districts DA5, DA6, DA7, DA8, DA14, DA15, DA16, SE2, and SE9, and the neighbourhoods of Bexleyheath, Erith, Sidcup, Welling, and Thamesmead.

05 / Licensing & compliance

Landlord licensing in Crayford, Bexley.

Most rental properties in London fall under one or more licensing schemes administered by the local council. In Crayford, Bexley this is London Borough of Bexley, which, in common with other London boroughs, may run a combination of mandatory HMO licensing (for larger shared houses), additional HMO licensing (for smaller shared properties outside the mandatory criteria), and selective licensing covering specific streets or wards.

Scheme boundaries, fees, and application requirements change over time, and not every property in Crayford, Bexley needs the same licence. Before you let, it is worth confirming the current position directly with London Borough of Bexley. Unlicensed lettings risk civil penalties and rent repayment orders.

When landlords work with British Housing, we handle the licensing step as part of onboarding. We check the address against the current schemes operated by London Borough of Bexley, apply on your behalf where needed, and make sure the property is compliant before a tenant moves in.
