For landlords
Lease it to us for a fixed payment, or sell it to us.
Lease your property to Bundool and your tenant is one company, not a household. Your lease with us sits outside the Renters’ Rights Act tenancy rules; we take those on as the landlord to the people who live there, and pay you the same amount every month. Or sell it to us, tenants and all.
One company, not a household
- A company lease, not an assured tenancy: the terms we agree govern it, including how long it lasts and how it ends.
- We are the landlord to the people who live there. Tenancies, deposits, rent reviews, repairs and complaints are ours to handle.
- One contact, one payment, on the same day every month.
- If you want it, the landlord app shows repairs, maintenance, cleaning and complaints, and how each was resolved.
Not a complete shield: an owner can still face a rent repayment order if a home is let unlawfully, and when a lease ends, residents normally become the owner’s tenants. What moves to us
Your tenant is one company
The new tenant rules become our job.
When you lease to Bundool Ltd, your tenant is a company, not a household. A letting only counts as an assured tenancy when the tenant is an individual living in the home, so your lease is governed by the terms we agree. We are the landlord to the people who live there.
What moves to us
- Finding tenants, referencing and Right to Rent checks
- Tenancy agreements under the Renters’ Rights Act, rent reviews and notices
- Deposits, and protecting them in a government scheme
- Repairs, safety checks and inspections, as agreed in the lease
- HMO licensing, where the lease says we hold the licence
- Complaints, and the landlord ombudsman once it opens
- Any possession claim, if one is ever needed
What stays with you
- The lease terms you agree with us, including structural repairs
- Consent from your lender, your insurer and, for leasehold property, the freeholder
- Some exposure if the home is let unlawfully: the Renters’ Rights Act lets rent repayment orders be made against owners above the landlord. That is why we hold licences and keep every check up to date
- At the end of the lease, residents normally become your tenants, and the Renters’ Rights Act rules then apply to you. We plan for this with you from the start
The law behind this: Housing Act 1988, section 1: an assured tenancy needs an individual tenant living in the home; Housing Act 1988, section 18: what happens to sub-tenancies when a lease ends; Guide to the Renters’ Rights Act (GOV.UK), which extends rent repayment orders to superior landlords. This is general information, not legal advice.
The landlord app
Your property’s health, on your phone.
Nothing to manage does not have to mean nothing to see. If you choose to, you get the EasyRent landlord app for each property you lease to us, so you can check on it whenever you like.
- RepairsEvery repair reported, when it was booked and when it was fixed.
- MaintenanceGas, electrical and alarm checks, licences and servicing, with the dates they run to.
- CleanlinessWhen shared areas were last cleaned, with photos from each visit.
- Complaints and resolutionsAnything raised about the home, and how and when it was put right.
- InspectionsRegular inspection reports, with photos of each room.
- PaymentsYour monthly payments and statements in one place.
It is your choice. Prefer to step back completely? Leave the app off and we will send you a short summary each quarter instead. Residents’ personal details stay private. You see the state of the property, not the people living in it.
Lease it to us
A fixed payment, without the admin.
The same payment, every month
Agreed before you sign, for the whole lease, whether rooms are let or not. No empty months and no arrears to chase.
Nothing to manage
Your agreement is with Bundool Ltd, a company. We find the tenants and run the tenancies, repairs, compliance and licensing.
Kept in good order
Day-to-day repairs, safety certificates and regular inspections are handled. Structural repairs and major systems stay with the owner, as agreed in the lease.
A buyer at the end, if you want one
We can agree now that Bundool may buy the property when the lease ends.
How a lease works
Five steps, all in writing.
Step 1: We agree the numbers
The term and the monthly payment, in writing, before anything is signed.
Step 2: Consents
Your mortgage lender, your insurer and, for leasehold property, the freeholder agree first. We help you ask.
Step 3: The lease is signed
A company lease with Bundool Ltd. We strongly recommend your own independent legal advice.
Step 4: We prepare and let it
Safety checks, any licensing, furnishing and repairs, then tenants on fair periodic tenancies.
Step 5: You are paid every month
The same amount, on the same day, for the whole lease.
Sell it to us
A buyer with no chain, tenants and all.
A buyer with no chain
Purchases are funded by investors, so there is no onward sale holding things up.
Tenants in place welcome
We can buy with your tenants staying, so there is no need to end tenancies before you sell.
A straight price
Based on a survey and valuation, and explained in writing. For a tenanted home, the price reflects that it is let.

FAQ
Questions landlords ask
How much will you pay?
It depends on the area, the rooms, the condition and the length of the lease. You will have a written figure after a viewing, before you commit to anything.
Do the Renters’ Rights Act rules apply to me?
Not to your lease with us. A letting only counts as an assured tenancy when the tenant is an individual living there, so a lease to Bundool Ltd is a company let governed by its own terms. We are the landlord to the residents and follow the Renters’ Rights Act with them. Two exceptions: an owner can still face a rent repayment order if a home is let unlawfully, and when our lease ends, residents normally become your tenants. Please take your own legal advice.
Does my payment depend on the rooms being let?
No. Your payment is set by the lease and continues for its whole length, whether or not rooms are let.
What happens at the end of the lease?
Tenants renting from us lawfully will normally stay and become your tenants, because the law protects them. We agree a plan with you at the start: a long lease, and the option for us to buy or keep managing. Please take your own legal advice on this.
Do I need an HMO licence?
A home let to five or more people from more than one household needs a mandatory licence, and some councils license smaller shared homes too. We check the local rules, and the lease says who holds the licence.
Will you buy a property with tenants in it?
Yes. The price reflects that the property is let. Many landlords find this simpler than ending tenancies under the new rules.
Can I see what is happening in my property?
Yes, if you want to. The landlord app shows repairs, maintenance and safety checks, cleaning of shared areas, inspection reports, and any complaints with how they were resolved. Residents’ personal details stay private. If you would rather not use it, we send a short summary each quarter.
Is this an agency?
No. We lease or buy the property ourselves and are the landlord to the tenants. You deal with one company, not a chain of agents.
