Guaranteed rent for landlords in Enfield Town
Enfield Town is the old market centre at the top of the borough, spread across EN1 and EN2 around Market Place, Church Street and Silver Street. It has had a market since a charter of 1303, the New River loops behind Gentleman's Row, and Town Park opens out a short walk to the south. Families want homes within reach of all that, so good houses here rarely stand empty for long. The work for an owner is everything around the letting: repairs, renewals, licensing and the month between one household and the next.
VividSpaces takes Enfield Town homes on a company let of three to five years, with our company named on the lease. We agree a rent at or above what the home would fetch on the open market and pay it on the same date every month, whether the house is occupied or between families. Inspections, cleaning, repairs and every call from the household come to our office, not to you.
What Enfield Town landlords get
- One rent for your EN1 or EN2 home, paid whether it is let or empty
- Families near Market Place and Town Park settle for years
- We check your address against Enfield's licensing schemes before signing
- Repairs, inspections and the household's calls all go to our office

These are borough averages, not an offer. The figure we pay for your Enfield Town home is set after we have seen it, at or above what it would fetch on the open market, and it is fixed in writing for the term of the lease.
You keep the whole amount. There is no management fee, no letting fee, and no empty month taken out of it.
Do you need a licence to let a property in Enfield Town?
Quite possibly, even for a home let to one family. Enfield runs a selective licensing scheme for ordinary lets, and Town ward, which takes in the town centre, is one of the wards it covers. Whether your house needs a licence depends on the ward it sits in, not on the EN1 or EN2 postcode.
What applies, and to whom
- Selective licensing began on 1 September 2026. In the wards it covers, every privately rented home lived in by one or two people, or by one family household, needs its own licence. Town ward is included; Bush Hill Park ward is not on the list.
- Enfield's published fee is £750 per licence, paid in two parts: £450 with the application, which is not refunded, and £300 when the draft licence is issued. Discounts are offered for accredited landlords and for homes rated EPC C or above.
- A licence normally lasts five years, and Enfield aims to decide applications within 60 working days. A licence has to be granted before it takes effect; there is no approval by default.
- Shared houses follow separate rules. Enfield's additional licensing scheme, borough-wide since 1 September 2025, covers homes shared by three or four people from different households, and mandatory licensing covers five or more. A home already licensed as an HMO does not also need a selective licence.
- Enfield publishes a map on its selective licensing page where you can check your exact address. We check it with you before anything is signed, and if the position is unclear we ask Enfield's private rented sector licensing team rather than guess.

What a year of rent looks like for a Enfield Town 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 Enfield Town 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.
Local authorities
Refer families who need a settled, long-term home and vet them before referral.

The Enfield Town rental market
Demand in Enfield Town centres on the things a family can walk to. Market Place, Palace Gardens and the shops along Church Street give it a proper high street; Town Park, the New River path and, a little further north, the grounds of Forty Hall give it open space; and two separate rail lines put both Liverpool Street and Moorgate within reach. That mix draws households who want to settle for several years, which is the occupancy a three to five year lease is designed around. Period houses near the conservation area and in Bush Hill Park hold the longest lets, while flats near the stations turn over more often.
Homes we take on here
Victorian terraces on the streets off Chase Side and Windmill Hill, late Victorian and Edwardian houses across Bush Hill Park, inter-war semis towards Enfield Chase and Gordon Hill, and flats close to the two stations and above the shops on Church Street. Two and three bedroom houses and larger flats suit the families we house best.
Enfield Town station is the end of the London Overground Weaver line, with direct trains to London Liverpool Street in around 35 minutes; Bush Hill Park station, one stop south, serves the EN1 side. On the other side of the centre, Enfield Chase and Gordon Hill stations have Great Northern trains to Moorgate in around 35 minutes. The A10 runs just east of the town centre and the M25 is a short drive north.

Enfield Town landlord questions
If yours is not here, ask us directly. We would rather answer it before you sign than after.
The town centre and the streets around it in EN1 and EN2: Market Place, Church Street and Silver Street, Chase Side and Windmill Hill, Bush Hill Park, Enfield Chase, Gordon Hill and Forty Hill. For homes elsewhere in the borough, such as Edmonton or Ponders End, our Enfield page covers the rest of the London Borough of Enfield.
It may. Enfield's selective scheme, which started on 1 September 2026, applies to homes let to one family in 17 wards, and Town ward is one of them. Bush Hill Park ward is not. The fee is £750 for a licence that normally runs five years. Because ward lines cut across EN1 and EN2, we check your exact address on Enfield's map before you sign, and confirm with Enfield's licensing team if anything is unclear.
We set the figure after viewing the home, at or above its open-market rent, and write it into the lease. For context, the ONS put the average private rent across the London Borough of Enfield at £1,833 a month in September 2026, and £2,106 for three bedrooms. The £1,900* year shown on this page is an illustration, not a quote or an offer.
Yes, both. We take flats, maisonettes and houses from one to four bedrooms, from the terraces off Chase Side to flats near Enfield Town station. Two and three bedroom homes suit the families we house best, and we tell you plainly after the viewing if a home does not fit.
Ours. VividSpaces signs a company let for three to five years, never less than 36 months, so paying the rent is our obligation for every month of the term, whether the home is occupied or between families.
A small family who need a settled, long-term home, referred through local authority partnerships and vetted by the authority and again by us. Conditions you set, such as no pets or no smoking, go into the agreement and are kept to.
