What a year of rent looks like for a Blackbird Leys landlord

Take a home that would let for £1,900* a month on the open market. Let the usual way, a normal year brings a management fee every month, a tenancy that ends, two empty months, a re-let fee, a repair bill and a late payment. Under a VividSpaces lease the same home pays £1,900* on the same date, twelve times.

* Illustration only, not a quote and not an offer. Assumes open-market rent £1,900/month, 10% management fee, two void months, £550 re-let fee, £340 repair bill, one late payment. The rent for your Blackbird Leys property is agreed in writing after we have seen it, before you sign anything.

If the property is empty, how are you still paying me?

Because the rent does not depend on who is living there. VividSpaces is the tenant on your lease, which is a company let, so the obligation to pay you is ours for the whole term, whether the home is occupied or between families.

  1. Local authorities

    Refer families who need a settled, long-term home and vet them before referral.

  2. VividSpaces

    Holds a three to five year lease with our company named on it, and places the family.

  3. You

    Paid a fixed rent on the same date every month for the whole term, agreed in writing before you sign.

The Blackbird Leys rental market

Blackbird Leys and Greater Leys together form one of the biggest concentrations of family housing in Oxford, built at a scale the city centre cannot offer. Proximity to the Mini plant, Oxford Business Park and the Science Park means demand comes from households in steady employment who want to stay in the area long term. Larger three and four-bed homes here are particularly well suited to family occupancy.

Homes we take on here

Two, three and four-bed family houses across Blackbird Leys and Greater Leys, and low-rise flats and maisonettes throughout OX4.

Frequent buses run into central Oxford in around twenty-five minutes, with the Eastern Bypass giving quick access to the A34, A40 and M40.

Neighbourhoods we cover: Blackbird Leys, Greater Leys, Northfield Brook.

From first call to first payment

Four steps. Not sure whether your Blackbird Leys property qualifies? Ask us, it takes a minute.

  1. Day one

    We view the Blackbird Leys property

  2. On signing

    VividSpaces goes on the lease

    A company let of three to five years with our name on it. From the date in the agreement the rent obligation is ours, occupied or not.

  3. Before move-in

    We prepare the home and place a family

    Any light works first, then a family referred and vetted by local authorities and checked again by us.

  4. Every month

    The same figure on the same date

    Repairs, inspections, cleaning and every phone call run through our office for the whole term.

Blackbird Leys landlord questions

If yours is not here, ask us directly. We would rather answer it before you sign than after.

  • Yes. Larger family homes suit our model particularly well, since we place families looking for a long-term home.

  • Not necessarily. We assess what is needed during the visit and can source suitable furniture where a property requires it.
