Using Property Guardians To Secure Your Vacant Property

Can you imagine 4 out of 10 UK citizens are leaving their homes because of the rising housing costs?
This trend has increased the number of vacant properties in the country. But, thanks to property
guardians, you can still have your apartment. This new renting alternative is becoming highly popular
in the UK, and it is beneficial both for the homeowners and the guardians.
Function of property guardians

With thousands of properties on offer, many families look for a reasonable house to stay in.
Becoming a property guardian can help everyone. Property guardians can protect your property. In
return, they not only get an incredible place to stay but also don’t have to pay a fortune for rent. This
low-cost accommodation facility allows the owner to receive some money when they are not
around. Plus, they don’t have to consider selling the property.
On the other hand, property guardians treat the house like their own. They are responsible for
keeping the apartment safe. Living in the UK is often expensive for many, especially those who don’t
have their own house. They have to hunt for rental apartments every year, and the rent is also sky
high. The advantage of having property guardians is both for the owner and the family staying in the
house.
How it works
If you want to move away from the UK, but don’t want to sacrifice your house, you should give it to a
property guardian. But, how will you get in touch with one? It’s not like you find them roaming
around in the streets holding placards! Here’s what you need to do:
1. Find a property management company

Property management websites take responsibility for finding property guardians on your behalf.
Similarly, they will also find homeowners for property guardians. Once you find a reliable property
management company, you need to send all the details of your apartment. Specify your name,
address, the approximately cost you expect from property guardians, the number of rooms your
house has, for how long you want to keep the property in guardianship, and a few more details.
Many companies also ask you to post pictures of your apartment so that potential property
guardians can check before inquiring. It is almost like finding a tenant in the UK. Only property
guardianship comes with the freedom of treating the house like your own.
2. Contact property guardians

The property management company will link you to several potential property guardians. You should
get in touch with them before selecting a family. The role of a property management company is very
useful here. They always try to set you up with families that have good reputations as property
guardians. So, once you have a handful of contact numbers, contact the families and talk to them
about how they like the apartment.
Try to understand what they feel about your property’s location. Ask them about their previous
experiences as property guardians. It is always wise to have experienced property guardians,
especially if this is your first time. They have the experience of handling several houses. So, they
usually know what homeowners expect from them. Whether it is maintaining cleanliness or keeping
the garden blooming, they have experience of almost everything.
3. Show them around

Once you shortlist a few candidates, ask them to come over on different days. Show them around.
This is the ideal time to tell them about what you expect from the family. If you have any special
rules, you should explain them in detail. For example, if you don’t want weed or alcohol inside the
house, tell them upfront. In fact, you should also mention the same in the contract before finalizing
the deal.
You can also ask them about the different ways they plan to keep the house safe. Make a checklist of
all the things you want to know from the potential property guardians. For example, their office
timings, if they have any pets, when their kids come back from school, will they have their parents
stay in the same house, what they usually do during the weekends, and so on.
Once you find a property guardian, you can finalize the deal by completing the paperwork. It is better
to stay and see as the property guardians move in. You can leave after that.
Benefits of having a property guardian
Renting a property in the traditional format comes with a lot of restrictions. Plus, the tenant may not
want to rent the entire house. Property guardians work differently. They only search for full-size
apartments. Some of the benefits of having a property guardian in the UK are as follows:
o Flexible living arrangements. Most property management companies hardly take a couple of
weeks to set you up with a few potential property guardians. All you have to do is give them
a notice period of the days within which you want to move. They will do the rest.
o It helps to save a considerable amount of living cost. As the cost of living in the UK is going
up, property guardians come as angels to increase your savings.
o Keeps your apartment secure. The most significant benefit of having a property guardian is
keeping the house safe and secure. These families understand that they are living in
someone else’s apartment. So, they take extra care to keep it safe and clean.
o Vacant properties don’t fetch you any money at all. And, if you are not enthusiastic about
renting your house, property guardianship is the best way to earn some money. While
families are searching for a roof over their head, this is the easiest way to not only help them
but also make some cash in the process.
So, the next time you think of moving out of the UK for a considerable amount of time, don’t hesitate
to give the apartment to a company like VPS Property Guardians. You will do a lot of good to the
community and also earn some money along the way – a win-win situation for everyone.
