Case Study: Guaranteed Rent for Landlords in Hackney – Amhurst Road Property
Overview
Revive Property successfully transformed a three-bedroom property on Amhurst Road, Hackney Downs E8 into a compliant and high-quality HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) under our guaranteed rent scheme. By managing the entire renovation and licensing process, we provided the landlord with a secure rental income and a fully modernised property, while ensuring compliance with Hackney’s regulations.
The Challenge: Unlicensed HMO & Subletting
The landlord discovered their tenant was subletting illegally, making the property an unlicensed HMO. Hackney had recently introduced an additional licensing scheme, requiring properties with three or more occupants to be licensed. This put the landlord at risk of significant fines.
Our Approach: Full Renovation & Licensing Management
-
Licence Application: We handled the entire licensing process, ensuring the property met all Hackney Borough’s stringent HMO requirements.
-
Property Renovation: The property was in poor condition when we took over. We completely renovated it, including:
-
Installing new wooden flooring throughout (retaining a unique rustic room feature).
-
Updating the kitchen & bathroom.
-
Painting the entire property to give it a fresh and modern feel.
-
HMO Compliance: Fire doors and mains-linked smoke alarms were installed to meet fire safety standards.
Guaranteed Rent & Full Property Management
Revive Property offered a three-year guaranteed rent contract, providing the landlord with steady income regardless of occupancy. Our services included:
-
Tenant Management: We ensured the Hackney property was rented to professional tenants, handpicked through a rigorous screening process.
-
Ongoing Maintenance: Revive Property handled all property repairs and upkeep, ensuring the home remained in excellent condition without burdening the landlord.
Results & Client Satisfaction
The landlord received guaranteed rent every month and avoided legal risks related to operating an unlicensed HMO. The property was successfully transformed, rented to professional tenants, and maintained to high standards.
Client Review: “Both Mert and Con have been honest, transparent, and professional from the beginning. They have delivered on their promises and continue to do so. I would highly recommend Revive Property to all landlords that want their property transformed and maintained to a high standard with guaranteed rent.”

What type of company are you?Some people may refer to us as estate agents but we’re far from that. We would call ourselves property managers, specialists in managing properties for landlords and providing accommodation for professional tenants.
-
How do you differ to regular agents/managers?Our aim is to give the landlord complete peace of mind. We guarantee your rent for anything up to 5 years, regardless of the property’s occupancy and essentially become your perfect tenant. In addition to all the benefits and services we offer we feel the major differentiator is that we have a complete vested interest in your property. We do not simply get a % fee once the property is let; we have to ensure the property is running at its maximum capacity at all times. You can rest assured that once we take on your property we will look after it as if it were our own.
-
Why should I trust you?We can always put you in touch with landlords we have worked with in the past. Our sole premise at Revive is to build long standing relationships built on confidence and trust with both our landlords and agents. We are completely transparent as a company in how we operate and our aim is to provide an honest and efficient service to all involved.
