Guaranteed rent
With guaranteed rent, the provider contractually takes on some of the risk that your rental income dries up. Often the provider rents the flat from you and then sublets it. The name of the service alone tells you little: check the contract to see who pays you, how much, and whether payment still arrives if the flat is empty or the tenant doesn't pay.
Also known as: rent guarantee, guaranteed income, secure rent, Garant
What is actually guaranteed
A regular payment can make planning easier, for instance if you're paying off a mortgage. But the name of the service doesn't mean the provider covers every repair, all building charges or any damage whatsoever. It isn't insurance, nor is it a state guarantee.
Before signing, go through the agreed amount, the payment due date, the start and length of the commitment, the termination options and the rules for adjusting the price. Also look at the provisions on the flat's condition when it's handed back and on the costs that remain yours. Find out whether the quoted amount is the final payment you'll receive or whether anything else is deducted from it.
How it differs from standard property management
With standard property management, you usually sign the lease with the tenant yourself. The manager handles the agreed services for you but doesn't take on the risk of lost rent. If the provider rents the flat directly, that company is your contractual partner.
A simple example: for as long as the contract is in force, the provider owes you the agreed 20,000 Kč a month, even if the flat is empty. That obligation still stands even if the subtenant has paid nothing. You still need to know, however, whether you pay building contributions and major investments separately. Predictable income doesn't mean a flat free of costs and risk.
With the Garant service, Flat Service itself is your tenant. We pay you the agreed rent every month, even if the flat is vacant or the subtenant fails to pay. The rent agreed when the contract is signed equals 82% of the estimated market rent, and it isn't reduced if the actual sublet rent turns out lower. If we achieve a higher sublet rent, you receive half of the difference above the expected sublet rent on top. Partner+ works differently: its guarantee covers lost income of up to one month's rent for each 24-month period under the property management agreement.
