British Housing has been doing this for over two decades. We hold 130+ active council and government contracts, which is what allows us to underwrite the rent and place tenants quickly. You get paid whether your property is occupied or not.

Landlord licensing in Harrow.
Most rental properties in London fall under one or more licensing schemes administered by the local council. In Harrow this is London Borough of Harrow, 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 Harrow needs the same licence. Before you let, it is worth confirming the current position directly with London Borough of Harrow. 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 Harrow, apply on your behalf where needed, and make sure the property is compliant before a tenant moves in.
Three steps to signed.
From postcode to contract. Most Harrow properties are on the books within 72 hours of valuation.
