£5,000 Rent Guarantee Included at No Extra Cost – Just One More Reason to Choose Saltouns
Award-winning property management, trusted local expertise and up to £5,000 in rent protection. All included in our fully managed service.
At Saltouns Letting, we believe landlords deserve more than simply finding good tenants and collecting rent. They deserve the reassurance that their investment and rental income are in safe hands.
That's why our fully managed service includes something particularly valuable: our £5,000 Rent Guarantee, at absolutely no additional cost.
Combined with our multi-award-winning service, 4.8-star Google rating and over 20 years of experience, it's another reason landlords across Edinburgh and the Lothians choose Saltouns.
Protecting Your Rental Income When It Matters Most
Even the most reliable tenants can experience unexpected financial difficulties. Redundancy, illness or changes in personal circumstances can affect their ability to pay rent.
And recent research suggests this is becoming an increasingly common problem.
Recent figures from Citizens Advice Scotland highlight the growing financial risks associated with rental arrears.
According to its October 2026 Home Truths report, average rent arrears among private tenants seeking assistance through its advice network have risen to more than £4,700 – an increase of nearly 80% over four years.
While these figures relate specifically to tenants experiencing financial difficulties rather than the rental market as a whole, they demonstrate just how quickly unpaid rent can become a significant financial burden.
For landlords, even a relatively short period without rental income can create considerable financial pressure, particularly when mortgage payments, insurance, maintenance and other property costs continue regardless.
This is precisely why Saltouns includes up to £5,000 in Rent Guarantee protection at no additional cost as part of our fully managed service.
How Does Saltouns' £5,000 Rent Guarantee Work?
Our approach is simple. We carefully reference prospective tenants to minimise the risk of arrears, but we recognise that circumstances can change.
If a qualifying tenant subsequently stops paying rent, Saltouns continues paying the landlord's normal net rental income, up to a maximum of £5,000, while taking appropriate steps to recover the outstanding rent.
The guarantee is subject to our management agreement and ceases when vacant possession is obtained.
For a property generating £1,200 per month, £5,000 represents the equivalent of more than four months' gross rental income.
And unlike agents who charge additional premiums or require landlords to upgrade their management package, our Rent Guarantee is included in our standard full management service at no extra charge.
