For landlords & property investors
Guaranteed rent. No voids. No management. A tenant you can trust.
Lease your property to Milestone on a three-to-five-year corporate lease, and we pay you a guaranteed rent every month — whether the home is occupied or not. We manage the property, the maintenance and the people in it. You deal only with us, and your income keeps arriving.
Why lease to us
The hands-off way to hold a rental property.
The everyday frustrations of letting — void months, chasing rent, managing tenants, the endless small repairs — become our problem, not yours. And your property does genuine social good.
Guaranteed rent
A fixed rent paid to you every month for the whole term, occupied or not.
Zero voids
Empty periods are our risk. Your income does not stop between occupants.
Fully managed
We handle tenancies, day-to-day maintenance and the property throughout.
A professional tenant
Your tenant is an organisation with insurance and accountability — not a stranger.
How the lease works
A simple corporate lease.
We take your property on a company lease and use it as supported accommodation for care-experienced young adults, with our staff supporting them.
- Three to five years, on a full repairing and insuring basis
- Guaranteed monthly rent for the whole term, regardless of occupancy
- We manage everything — the young people, tenancies and day-to-day upkeep
- Day-to-day maintenance handled by us; the structure remains yours
- Handed back in good order at the end of the term
- One point of contact — you deal with Milestone, never the occupants

What we are looking for
The right homes, in the right places.
Property type
Good-condition houses and flats — most often three- and four-bedroom homes suited to a small shared house, plus self-contained flats for move-on.
Location
In and around our operating areas, starting from Milton Keynes and expanding across England — well connected to transport, shops, colleges and services.
Condition
Safe, warm and ready to live in, meeting the usual safety requirements. We will tell you plainly if anything needs doing before we can take it on.
The process
From first call to first payment.
Tell us about your property
Location, type and number of bedrooms. We will say quickly whether it fits.
Viewing and assessment
We visit, check suitability and safety, and confirm the rent we can offer.
Lease agreed
We put a clear corporate lease in place — term, rent and responsibilities all in writing.
Handover and first payment
We take on the property, and your guaranteed rent begins on the agreed date.
Landlord questions
The things landlords ask first.
Do I really get paid when it is empty?
Yes. The rent is guaranteed for the whole term, occupied or not. Filling the property — and any gaps between occupants — is our responsibility, not yours.
Who do I deal with?
Only Milestone. We are your single tenant on the lease and manage everyone living in the property. You never have to deal with occupants or their day-to-day needs.
What about wear, repairs and the property's condition?
We handle day-to-day maintenance and keep the home in good order during the term, and hand it back in good condition at the end. The lease sets out exactly who is responsible for what, with no surprises.
Is my mortgage or insurance affected?
A company lease for supported housing can have implications for your mortgage and insurance, so we always recommend you check with your lender and insurer first. We are happy to provide whatever documentation they need.
Have a property that could work?
Tell us where it is and what it is, and we will come back quickly on whether it fits and what rent we can guarantee.
