A subscription-based rental service company, we break your lease contract and you pay us. We find you apartments and rent it for you. You pay us not the landlord.
That is a great question on whether the landlord will agree to sublet, but for me as a service company my argument is I have a customer with a good credit rating who is ready to move in to your apartment. I know many landlords who are desperate to get tenants.
The problem is some tenants are ready to move in, but they already have a long-term contract with another apartment. I am here to break it for you, but you pay me
- gtsteve 8y agoI've always lived in areas with very high demand for rental property and I always had the opposite problem in that I couldn't stay in the property long enough - landlords often wouldn't agree to 2 year leases for example. Possibly your proposed service might be useful to users in cities without this demand but it might follow that you are looking at lower income landlords. Perhaps offering a guaranteed rental income as part of the business model would work. As a former renter I don't think I'd want to sign up to this because (in the UK at least), tenants really don't have a good deal as it is. Why would I want to replace a lease with a subscription? That is unless you can effectively offer the tenants better rights than you normally get... but then why would a landlord want to give up a system currently rigged in their favour? This isn't a business model I've heard of and I find stuff like this quite interesting to think about. Let me know your thoughts.
