Case Study: Securing Financial Stability Through Guaranteed Rent in Islington
Overview
Revive Property partnered with a landlord in Highbury & Islington to transform a three-bedroom property into a high-standard HMO, ensuring long-term rental security. The property was in poor condition, requiring extensive updates before it could attract reliable professional tenants.
With the landlord relying on rental income to cover their mortgage and expenses, securing a three-year guaranteed rent contract was crucial. After experiencing the stability and ease of our services, they extended the agreement for another three years, ensuring ongoing financial peace of mind.

The Challenge – A Run-Down Property & Financial Concerns
The landlord approached Revive Property with a property that had suffered from years of neglect. The interiors were outdated, making it difficult to attract quality tenants. However, they were on a tight budget and needed a cost-effective solution to bring the home up to a professional living standard.
At the same time, their mortgage and living expenses depended on steady rental income, so void periods and unreliable tenants were not an option. They needed a solution that provided both property improvements and financial security.
Our Approach – Balancing Budget-Friendly Renovation & Compliance
Strategic Property Updates
-
We worked within the landlord’s budget to prioritise essential refurbishments that would have the biggest impact.

The entire property was repainted, giving it a modern, fresh appearance.

Bathroom improvements included updated tiling, fixtures, and plumbing repairs to meet professional tenant expectations.

Fire doors and interlinked smoke alarms were installed to comply with Islington HMO regulations.

Securing Long-Term Stability

Once the property was brought up to standard, we:
Secured an HMO licence through Islington Council, ensuring full legal compliance.
