The Secret Behind a 100% Guaranteed Rental Income? Consistent Occupancy Rates of 98%
In a rapidly evolving rental landscape, where regulation is tightening, costs are increasing, and market uncertainty looms large, savvy property investors are seeking not just solid returns – but stability. And that’s exactly what Find UK Property is delivering.
A new Q2 2025 report from property finance platform Lendlord sheds valuable light on current conditions for landlords across the UK, including insights into rent trends, vacancy levels, and how landlords are reacting to upcoming legislation like the Renters’ Rights Bill. While the overall picture suggests resilience in the sector, it also underscores the growing challenges of being a hands-on landlord in today’s market.
Find UK Property’s standout 98% occupancy rate across its fully managed investment portfolio of more than 2,000 properties isn’t just impressive – it’s industry leading.
In a climate where every void week chips away at returns, that kind of consistency in occupancy translates directly into peace of mind and predictable passive income for investors that’s guaranteed.
The Bigger Picture: Pressure and Caution for DIY Landlords
The Lendlord survey of active UK landlords reveals a landscape defined by tension between high demand and cautious rent strategies. While 58.5% of landlords reported raising rents over the past 12 months, many are taking a restrained approach moving forward. Only 36.3% plan to increase rents in the next six months, with 30.4% still undecided and watching how the market evolves.
Vacancy rates remain low, with 72.8% of landlords reporting full occupancy. That might sound promising – until you dig deeper and realise that nearly 12% are still experiencing vacancy rates above 10%. That’s a significant hit to income for many investors.
In contrast, Find UK Property’s 98% occupancy rate across its fully managed portfolio paints a very different, and far more attractive picture.
“Our occupancy rate is the result of a proven, long-term strategy that prioritises affordability for tenants and consistent, hands-free income for investors”. says Jonathan Walker, Lettings Manager at Find UK Property. “We’ve structured our entire offering to deliver hassle-free investing with no landlord liabilities or surprise costs.”
Why Occupancy Is the Hidden Key to Clients’ Guaranteed Returns
For any property investor, rent increases are a tempting way to grow income – but without tenants, there is no income at all. High rents don’t mean much if your property sits empty for weeks or months. That’s why occupancy, often overlooked in favour of yield projections, is such a critical metric for long-term success.
Let’s break it down with a simple comparison:
Investment Scenario | Rent (£/month) | Vacancy Rate | Annual Income |
Landlord A (10% vacancy) | £600 | 10% | £6,480 |
Landlord B (98% occupancy) | £560 | 2% | £6,577.60 |
Despite charging lower rent, Landlord B earns more annually, simply due to far fewer voids. Now imagine scaling that advantage across 2,000 properties – it adds up quickly.
Find UK Property has built its reputation on delivering this exact kind of consistency – 98% occupancy, year after year.
And even for the 2%, on average, of properties which are vacant at any one time, the property owner need not worry, as Find UK Property pay them the rent even if the house is empty – whilst it’s being re-let or renovated.

A Hands-Free Investment Model That Works
Many landlords are currently grappling with more than just occupancy. The same Lendlord report indicates that over 70% of landlords are actively monitoring the impact of upcoming regulations. The Renters’ Rights Bill, which promises increased security and rights for tenants, is causing concern among landlords who may have to adapt processes, absorb more risk, or even relinquish more control.
At Find UK Property, the model is refreshingly simple – and built precisely to shield investors from this kind of stress.
Here’s what investors enjoy with Find UK Property:
- Fully Managed Service: All properties are managed end-to-end, from tenant sourcing to maintenance and compliance.
- No Landlord Liabilities: Investors are not classified as landlords; they simply own the property and receive monthly income.
- No Hidden Costs: No surprise repair bills or letting agent fees – everything is included in the investment solution.
- Guaranteed Peace of Mind: With near-full occupancy and a proven rental strategy that’s been fine-tuned over 16 years, Find UK Property can contractually guarantee rental income to the property owner, no matter what.
Affordable Properties, Strong Demand
One of the reasons Find UK Property consistently achieves such high occupancy is their commitment to affordable housing – specifically, in the North of England, where rental demand continues to outstrip supply.
While average monthly rents in Greater London are approaching £2,000 according to Lendlord, many investors are now looking beyond the capital for more sustainable opportunities.
Find UK Property specialises in this very space – offering high-quality terraced and semi-detached homes in towns where demand is strong, rents are reliable, and the properties remain affordable for tenants.
That affordability not only ensures strong occupancy – it also aligns with increasing tenant demand for value in the face of cost-of-living pressures.
Passive Income: Real Returns
Many property companies claim to offer passive income, but Find UK Property backs it up with structure, contractual guarantees, and long-term commitment. Investors receive a net monthly income of 7% from their properties without being involved in day-to-day operations.
This structure is particularly attractive in light of the challenges highlighted by the Lendlord survey:
- Regulatory change
- Increasing compliance costs
- Tenant retention risks
- Market uncertainty
By owning a property managed by Find UK Property, investors sidestep these headaches entirely. They don’t act as the landlord; the company does. This distinction is important, because it eliminates exposure to legal liabilities, dispute management, and even void-related stress.
Final Thoughts: Why 98% Means More Than You Think
In a market where every percentage point matters, a 98% occupancy rate is not just a bragging right – it’s a clear indication of a model that works.
It means less downtime and consistent revenues which allows them to deliver a truly passive investment experience. Combine that with no landlord duties, fixed costs, and a management team that’s deeply experienced in delivering for both tenants and investors, and it’s easy to see why Find UK Property is standing out from the crowd.
As the UK rental market faces ongoing pressure, the most successful investors will be those who prioritise stability, structure, and sustainability. Find UK Property’s model is built around all three – and it’s proving itself, year after year.
