As a landlord, one of the biggest concerns you face is rent reliability. Between void periods, late payments, and difficult tenants, the monthly income you rely on isn’t always guaranteed — which is where the guaranteed rent model comes in.
AtEason Stay, we work with landlords across the UK to provide hands-off, profitable short-term let solutions — including guaranteed rent for properties used on platforms like Airbnb. In this article, we’ll break down exactly how it works, what you need to know, and how it compares to traditional letting options.
What Is Guaranteed Rent?
Guaranteed rent (also called rent-to-rent or fixed rent) is a system where a management company likeEason Staysagrees to pay you a fixed monthly income, regardless of whether the property is occupied or not.
In simple terms:
- You rent your property to a professional operator
- They sublet it on short-term platforms like Airbnb or Booking.com
- You receive a fixed monthly payment
- They handle everything: listings, guest vetting, cleaning, and maintenance
For landlords looking for predictable cash flow without the hassle, guaranteed rent is a growing alternative to standard tenancies.
How Does Guaranteed Rent Work With Airbnb?
While traditional guaranteed rent has typically been used with long-term tenancies, many management companies (including us at Eason Stays) now use your property to operate as a serviced accommodation unit instead — meaning higher earning potential for us, and guaranteed fixed income for you.
Here’s the flow:
- We inspect and assess your property
- You sign a guaranteed rent agreement for 1–5 years
- We list the property on Airbnb and other platforms
- You get paid the same amount every month — even if we have low occupancy or guest issues

What Are the Benefits for Landlords?
✅ Fixed Income Every Month
No more chasing rent. No more worrying about tenants skipping payments or vacant months.
✅ 0% Void Periods
Whether the unit is fully booked or empty, you still get paid.
✅ Hands-Off Experience
We handle guest communication, cleaning, maintenance, and listings. You just receive your payment.
✅ Fully Insured & Compliant
We provide guest liability cover, cleaning teams, regular inspections, and full fire safety compliance.
✅ Property Maintained to High Standards
Serviced accommodation guests expect hotel-like quality. That means your property is regularly cleaned and inspected, often kept in better condition than with long-term tenants.
Common Concerns (and the Real Answers)
“Is it legal to sublet my property this way?”
Yes — with your written permission, and if the correct contracts and insurance are in place.
“What if my mortgage doesn’t allow short-term lets?”
This needs to be checked. We can advise on lender policies and help you switch products if needed.
“Who handles damages?”
We do. At Eason Stays, we take full responsibility for guest damage, cleaning, and maintenance under our agreements.
“Can I visit the property?”
Absolutely. You retain ownership and can inspect the property with reasonable notice.

How Much Can You Earn With Guaranteed Rent?
In some cases, you may earn slightly less than the maximum you could generate through Airbnb yourself. But you:
- Avoid all operational costs
- Don’t pay booking fees or deal with cancellations
- Don’t have to furnish or stage the property (we do it for you)
- Benefit from completely passive income
If your property sits vacant or you have tenant turnover, guaranteed rent could actually earn you more annually — with none of the hassle.
