Guaranteed rent for landlords in Esher

Esher sits in KT10 between the A3 and the River Mole, a small Elmbridge town whose High Street, Sandown Park racecourse and the Claremont estate give it more weight than its size suggests.

With VividSpaces an Esher landlord deals with one company for three to five years. We are named on the lease, we agree a monthly figure at or above what the home would let for, and we pay it on the same date whether or not anyone is living there. Inspections, cleaning between families and day-to-day repairs are arranged from our office.

What Esher landlords get

  • One fixed sum for your KT10 home, paid whether it is occupied or not
  • Two and three bedroom homes across KT10 considered
  • Cleaning between families, inspections and repairs arranged by us
  • Nothing taken off for management, letting or renewals

These are borough averages, not an offer. The figure we pay for your Esher 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 Esher?

For an Esher home let to one family, usually not. Elmbridge's published licensing rules concern shared houses, known as houses in multiple occupation (HMOs).

What applies, and to whom

  • Elmbridge, which covers Esher, treats a property as a house in multiple occupation when it is let to at least three unrelated people forming more than one household.
  • A licence is required once five or more people, not living together as one household, share facilities such as a kitchen or bathroom.
  • Elmbridge's application fee is £600 for a five-year licence, with £50 off for members of a recognised landlord association or accreditation scheme.
  • Running an unlicensed HMO can lead to prosecution, a civil penalty of up to £30,000, a rent repayment order or an unlimited fine.
  • Elmbridge's HMO page does not describe any wider scheme covering ordinary family lets. If you are unsure about your address, check with Elmbridge's licensing team. We let to one family per home, with VividSpaces on the lease, and we go through the position with you before you sign.

What a year of rent looks like for a Esher 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.

Let the usual wayfees, two empty months, a re-let fee, a repair, one late payment£16,210
Under a VividSpaces leasetwelve identical payments, on the agreed date£22,800

Since we started, 100% of rents have been paid on time. You can check who you are dealing with before you speak to us: VividSpaces Ltd is on the ICO register (ZB892725), a member of the Property Redress Scheme (PRS051867) and registered at Companies House (16100586).

* 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 Esher 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 Esher rental market

Esher Common, West End Common and Claremont Landscape Garden are all within walking distance of the centre, and the station beside Sandown Park runs straight into Waterloo. It is a small town with a small rental market, mostly family houses, so there is little spare stock at any one time.

Homes we take on here

Flats above and behind the High Street, Victorian and Edwardian cottages around Lower Green and West End, inter-war semis in Hinchley Wood, and family houses on the roads off Claremont Lane. Two and three bedroom homes suit the families we house best; larger detached houses we look at case by case.

Esher station, beside Sandown Park, has South Western Railway trains to London Waterloo in around 30 minutes. Hinchley Wood station serves the north of KT10 on the line through Surbiton, and the A3 Esher bypass is a few minutes' drive.

Neighbourhoods we cover: Esher High Street, Lower Green, West End, Hinchley Wood, Weston Green, Claremont.

From first call to first payment

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

  1. Day one

    We view the Esher property

    We look at the home, confirm what it would let for, and put in writing what we will pay and for how long. No charge and no obligation.

  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.

Esher landlord questions

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

  • Esher town centre, Lower Green, West End and Hinchley Wood. Claygate and Thames Ditton have their own pages, on the same terms. Send us the address and we will confirm it within a working day.

  • The figure is set after we have viewed the home, at or above its open-market rent, and written into the lease before you sign. For context, the ONS put the average private rent across Elmbridge at £1,885 a month in September 2026, and £1,584 for two bedrooms.

  • We look at them, but the families we house are usually small, so two and three bedroom homes are the best fit. If a larger house is not right for the arrangement we will say so plainly rather than offer a figure that does not work for you.

  • Ours. It is a company let to VividSpaces for three to five years, with a 36 month minimum, which is why the rent keeps arriving between families: paying it is our obligation, not an occupant's.

  • A small family needing a settled home, referred and vetted by a local authority and then checked again by us. Any conditions you set, such as no pets or no smoking, are written into the arrangement and kept to.

  • Not for a home let to one family. Elmbridge licenses houses shared by five or more people from more than one household, at £600 for five years. If anything about your address is unclear, check with Elmbridge's licensing team, and we will go through it with you before you sign.

Before you call

You will not find landlord reviews on this site. We would rather show you nothing than show you something we invented. Ask us on the call and we will put you on the phone with a landlord we already work with, so you can ask them instead.
