Portfolio Landlord Services
If you own multiple student properties, you already know that managing a portfolio is a very different challenge to letting a single home. Voids compound quickly across several properties, compliance obligations multiply, and keeping on top of maintenance, licensing and rent reviews across a growing portfolio can become a full-time job in itself.
That’s where we come in. The Student Living Co. offers a dedicated portfolio service built specifically for landlords with multiple student properties across Nottingham and Derby. We combine specialist student market knowledge with the operational infrastructure to manage your portfolio efficiently, protect your income and free up your time.
A Single Point of Contact
One of the biggest frustrations for portfolio landlords is dealing with different people for different properties. With us, you get a dedicated portfolio manager who knows every property you own, understands your priorities and becomes your single point of contact for everything. No call centres, no repeating yourself, no being passed from department to department. Just one person who knows your business inside out.
Consolidated Reporting
Managing a portfolio means keeping track of a lot of moving parts. We bring everything together into clear, consolidated reporting so you always have a complete picture of how your portfolio is performing. This includes rental income and arrears across all properties, current occupancy and upcoming void periods, maintenance activity and associated costs, and compliance status for each property including gas, electrical, EPC and licensing. You get the detail when you want it and the overview when you need it.
Void Management
Compliance Management
Compliance obligations grow with every property you add, and the consequences of getting it wrong are serious. We manage compliance across your entire portfolio, tracking renewal dates for gas safety certificates, electrical inspections, EPCs and HMO licences, and arranging everything well ahead of expiry. For landlords operating in Article 4 areas or managing licensable HMOs, we provide guidance on your obligations and make sure nothing slips through the cracks.
HMO Expertise
The majority of student properties are Houses in Multiple Occupation, and HMOs carry their own specific licensing and safety requirements. We have extensive experience managing HMOs across Nottingham and Derby, from mandatory licensing and room size standards to fire safety and amenity requirements. Whether your properties are already licensed or you’re considering converting a property to an HMO, we can guide you through it.
Maintenance and Preferred Rates
Through the volume of work we manage, we’ve built relationships with reliable, vetted contractors who understand student properties and turnaround timescales. Portfolio clients benefit from preferred contractor rates, faster response times and coordinated maintenance scheduling, which keeps costs down and standards up across your properties.
