Corporate lettings - how LiFE can help

LiFE Residential has grown to become one of the UK’s leading estate agencies, offering specialist corporate lettings services across London and Birmingham, as well as international offices in Hong Kong and Singapore. Our dedicated team of nearly 200 colleagues speak over 30 languages, offering a tailored service to suit your property needs. As property experts handling over 5,000 property transactions every year, we have worked hard to build up long-standing relationships with corporate companies, institutional landlords, developers, and private landlords.

Landlords often prefer corporate tenants for their properties as they are aware that rent is paid in full, on time, and that their rental return is maximised. Properties let to professional tenants are well-maintained and looked after, as the occupants are a reflection of the company they work for. Corporate tenants are often contracted to work for several years, minimising void periods for landlords.

Our Corporate Lettings and International Relocation team handles hundreds of enquiries a week and works with a broad range of professional tenants, from graduates to lawyers, bankers, company directors, and diplomats. We also secure tenancies for embassies and government departments. Corporate companies and clients often require a professional contact for the duration of their tenancy. Should they have any queries or if any works are required during the tenancy, their preference is to move into a property that is managed by LiFE Residential.

We work hard to ensure an exceptional customer experience, minimising void periods and ensuring there are no arrears. Over the past year, our landlords experienced an average void period of just under 1% and only 1% of our landlords experienced rent arrears. We like to work in partnership with our landlords, taking our fees monthly throughout the duration of the tenancy rather than upfront like many other agents.

In attracting the best possible corporate tenants at the best possible prices, our in-house marketing team creates bespoke campaigns tailored to each individual property. We combine expert letting consultants with cutting-edge technology, advertising on leading property portals, social media platforms, microsites, and a substantial database of prospective tenants carefully cultivated through our branch network.

Our all-encompassing Property Management Service offers reassurance by addressing all aspects of your asset, including financial, legislative, and operational management. One of our highly qualified property managers will be appointed to your property and be your main point of contact, never more than 15 minutes away from any of the properties in their portfolio. Our out-of-hours emergency team is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, providing extra assurance that your tenants are always cared for.

We set ourselves the highest standards by being members of the Property Redress Scheme (PRS) and operating to codes of practice set out by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS). We care about customer satisfaction and go the extra mile with excellent customer service. With thousands of positive reviews across Google and Trustpilot, whether you have one investment property or a large portfolio, LiFE Residential guarantees you receive the most from your investment.
