Why Greenwich Town Landlords Choose British Housing?
The traditional rental model in Greenwich Town puts the landlord on the hook for every void week, every failed inspection, every late-paying tenant. Guaranteed rent replaces that with a single contract and a fixed monthly sum.
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.
Greenwich Town attracts tenants drawn to its maritime heritage, Observatory, and market, which helps keep placement times short. Our team handles the vetting, check-in, and ongoing management, you just receive the rent.

Landlord licensing in Greenwich Town, Greenwich.
Most rental properties in London fall under one or more licensing schemes administered by the local council. In Greenwich Town, Greenwich this is Royal Borough of Greenwich, which, in common with other London boroughs, may run a combination of property licensing schemes, including selective licensing covering specific streets or wards as well as wider schemes that can apply to shared and rented homes more generally.
Scheme boundaries, fees, and application requirements change over time, and not every property in Greenwich Town, Greenwich needs the same licence. Before you let, it is worth confirming the current position directly with Royal Borough of Greenwich. 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 Royal Borough of Greenwich, apply on your behalf where needed, and make sure the property is compliant before a tenant moves in.
