Key features

Protect your landlords' rental income

Offer your landlords a competitive service that pays out until vacant possession is obtained.

We do the work on your behalf to recover any outstanding rent and make sure you don’t lose out during the process - and, while your landlord’s property is vacant, we’ll pay 90% of rent for up to six weeks.

Reduce admin

Our policy will manage the arduous admin that goes into recovering rent, or removing tenants or squatters from your landlord’s property - as well as covering any legal expenses.

Going through the claims process is seamless. You can start a claim directly in the Goodlord platform, so you don’t need to spend time gathering information and documents.
