Rent & Legal Protection for Landlords
Protect Your Income. Remove the Risk.
Being a landlord has never been more regulated – or more unpredictable.
With the Renters’ Rights Act introducing longer eviction timelines and stricter rules, one bad tenancy can now cost thousands.
Our Rent & Legal Protection service is designed to give you complete peace of mind.
What Is Rent & Legal Protection?
It’s a specialist insurance-backed service that protects you if things go wrong with a tenancy.
If your tenant stops paying rent or you need to take legal action – you’re covered.
What’s Included
Rent Protection
- Covers missed rent payments
- Ensures you still receive income even if your tenant doesn’t pay
Keeps your cash flow steady – even during disputes
Legal Expenses Cover

- Includes solicitor fees and court costs
No unexpected legal bills
Eviction Support

- Guidance through the legal process
Done correctly, with minimal stress
Tenant Referencing Requirement

Reduces risk from the very start
Why This Matters More Than Ever
With the removal of Section 21 and increased tenant protections:
- Evictions will take longer
- Legal processes will become more complex
- Mistakes will be more costly
This protection isn’t a “nice to have” anymore – it’s becoming essential
Real-World Example
A tenant falls into arrears…
- 3-6 months unpaid rent = £2,000-£5,000+ lost income
- Legal costs = £1,000+
- Time + stress = significant
With protection in place, these risks are covered
