The social housing space has become much more complicated in the last few years, as the need has become ever greater. Average rents in London run well over £2,100 per month now, so the old stigmas no longer apply. Housing has become a struggle for the average working person, including young families, who strive to make ends meet in one of the most expensive cities in the world.
Social Housing takes many forms today, whether a medium-term solution for people unable to afford private rent prices, such as single mothers, to asylum seekers, and people at risk of becoming homeless. All of these people have one thing in common – they need help. At LeBern we inherently understand this problem; we have a well-established network of connections with local authorities with which we work. Helping people find the home they deserve was one of the reasons LeBern came into being in the first place.
On the other hand, the cost of living crisis and the continuous tenant churn, we became aware of the fact that landlords were looking for a fixed, regular, guaranteed market-level rent from a reliable tenant.
As such, LeBern has come up with a range of innovative guaranteed rent services, providing landlords with the reliability and peace of mind they are looking for, whilst at the same time, supplying people who need support with a stable home.
LeBern bears full responsibility both as tenant and landlord in order to make this happen, creating homes for people, whilst at the same time creating innovative market leading services that landlords find hard to beat on the private market.
