DJR Housing takes full responsibility for your property — tenants, support, maintenance, compliance and reporting — in partnership with a registered housing provider. You receive a fixed rent every month, whether the room is occupied or not.
This isn't a referral service or a finder's fee arrangement. It's full management — the kind where your phone doesn't ring unless it's your rent landing.
A fixed weekly rent per room, paid monthly, regardless of occupancy. Voids are our risk, not yours.
Referrals, vetting, placement and ongoing support are coordinated entirely through DJR and our RSL partner.
Day-to-day issues are managed and followed through on your behalf — particularly straightforward on new-build or newly renovated properties.
One agreement, one team, one number to call. No juggling agents, support workers, or maintenance contractors yourself.
All properties must meet an all-ensuite minimum standard. No exceptions — it's what allows us to guarantee rent with confidence and run the property to a high standard.
Minimum standard. Each tenant has a private ensuite, with shared kitchen and communal space.
Fully self-contained accommodation — own kitchen and bathroom. Highest guaranteed rate.
A side-by-side look at what running an HMO yourself involves, compared to handing it to DJR under a guaranteed rent agreement.
Finding tenants, chasing rent, managing voids, coordinating support, sorting maintenance, staying compliant — all on you, every month.
Tenants, support, maintenance and compliance are all managed for you. Your involvement: receive your guaranteed rent each month.
Older properties almost always need work before they meet standard — fire doors and frame upgrades, rewiring, damp issues, the list goes on. That's weeks of delay and cost before a tenant even moves in.
New-build and newly renovated properties skip all of that. They already meet building regs, fire safety standards, and the all-ensuite layout we need. Inspection is close to a formality, and ongoing maintenance is minimal — call-outs are rare and, on new builds, usually still under warranty.
That means less for you to think about, a faster path to your first tenant, and a property that just works from day one. It's why this is the only type of property we take on.
Your agreed weekly rate per room is paid to you monthly, on schedule, whether or not the room is currently occupied. The risk of voids sits with us, not you.
Typically 3-4 months from signing, factoring in onboarding, tenant placement, SEA approval and standard funder payment holds. Full breakdown on our How It Works page.
Standard compliance certificates for the property — gas safety, EICR, fire risk assessment, EPC, buildings insurance and a few others. Everything else, including all RSL paperwork and approvals, is handled by DJR.
Birmingham only. Our RSL partner works exclusively with Birmingham Council, so that's where we focus — it keeps onboarding and SEA approval consistent and fast.
