PropTurn for UK landlords

Your property. More income.None of the work.

Hand the property to a local management company running on PropTurn, or lock in a five- or ten-year supported-living contract with a local-authority covenant. Pick the income model that fits the property — short-let, mid-let, or supported living — and stop being anyone’s front-of-house.

PropTurn costs landlords nothing. You pay your chosen operator’s fee from our list of partners — no platform charge on top.

Three income models

One property. Three ways to earn.

Not every property should be on Airbnb. Not every landlord wants a 30-year AST. PropTurn lets you pick the model that fits the property, and lets you switch later if the market shifts — without changing who manages it, where your money sits, or who holds your compliance records.

01

Short-let, managed

A local management company runs the property on PropTurn. You sign up, they operate.

Term
Rolling, 30-day notice
Rent
Dynamic, market-tracking
Effort
Zero day-to-day; you sign quarterly statements
Best for
City-centre flats, tourism catchments, corporate postcodes, executive lets.
02

Supported living

A CQC-registered provider takes a 5- or 10-year lease backed by a local-authority covenant.

Term
Five or ten years, signed
Rent
Fixed monthly rent, typically at or above market
Effort
Zero; the provider holds the lease end-to-end
Best for
Properties that don’t suit short-let, underperforming ASTs, long-term income seekers.
03

Mid-let (corporate + relocations)

Thirty-day minimum stays, serviced. Corporate rate, 85–90% typical occupancy.

Term
Rolling, 30-day notice
Rent
Weekly rate, calmer than STR
Effort
Zero day-to-day; same ledger as short-let
Best for
Near business parks, hospitals, university catchments.

Income calculator

What your property could earn.

Indicative only. Start from what the property would rent for on a standard AST, pick the location tier, and compare the three PropTurn income models against that baseline. A proper modelling pass happens when we list the property with an operator.

Your property

£950/ month
£500£5,000
15%of short-let gross · £264/mo at this rate
12% lean15% typical26% premium

Operators publish their own rate card. Lower-fee operators typically run fewer services (no laundry, no on-call maintenance); higher-fee operators run the property end-to-end including dispatch, dynamic pricing and guest comms.

Multipliers are indicative. Actual uplift depends on bedrooms, property condition, local licensing, and which operator you work with. The final number goes on your signed landlord agreement. Supported living and mid-let rents are set contractually and do not change with the operator-fee slider.

Supported living

Long-term income, backed by a local-authority covenant.

A CQC-registered provider signs a five- or ten-year lease on your property. The rent is covered by the local authority, often at a premium to the short-let or AST equivalent. You get signed rent for the whole term. They get stable housing for a vulnerable tenant. We facilitate the match.

01 · Term

Five or ten years of signed rent.

Local-authority-backed income for the duration. No voids, no turnover, no dynamic-pricing fight.

02 · Rent

Typically above market rate.

Typical signed rent sits modestly above AST. Best case — higher-needs placements and specialist supported housing — can push materially higher. Assessed per property, per placement.

03 · Your uplift

Your share of the uplift on top.

The difference between projected short-let income and the SL rent is the uplift. Your share sits on top of the signed rent — new income you wouldn’t have earned on AST.

Who signs what

A clean three-party structure.

  1. Yousign a lease with the CQC-registered provider. Fixed rent for the term, paid monthly. PropTurn holds the lease template and the audit trail.
  2. Providerholds the property under the LA framework. They place the tenant, handle support, manage wear-and-tear. Your property is their service.
  3. LApays the provider at the agreed rate. That’s the covenant that makes the rent reliable: the taxpayer-backed income line is what differentiates SL from a standard residential let.

Your money · compliance · tax

What PropTurn actually handles.

An operator can run the property. But if they hold the money, chase the compliance, or do the tax themselves, you’re trusting them with all of it. PropTurn puts the infrastructure behind the operator so you’re not.

Client money, ring-fenced

Rent lands in a segregated account under FCA-authorised Client Money Protection. It can’t be touched for platform fees, supplier payments or anything else — only paid to you, or reserved for tax, on a schedule you see.

Compliance, per property

Gas safety, EICR, EPC, PAT testing, Scotland STR registry, London 90-day cap, LSAPR licensing — tracked per property with expiry dates, reminders and a document vault. Renewals booked and chased.

Tax reserve, quarterly

A percentage of each month’s net rent is ring-fenced for your Self Assessment (MTD ITSA). Released to you quarterly with the filing, or paid directly to HMRC via PropTurn’s agent relationship.

Operator accountability

Every property has a named operator signed to a PropTurn contract. If they underperform, the platform flags it before you have to. If the commercial relationship ends, your rent and compliance records move with you.

What it costs you

PropTurn charges the partner operator. Not you.

Your chosen partner operator (the management company or supported-living provider) pays PropTurn to run on the platform. You pay their service fee from our published rate card — and nothing else to us on top. No subscription, no hidden platform charge, no rev-share out of your rent.

Short-let / mid-let

12–26%

  • •  Full management including turnover and guest comms
  • •  Dynamic pricing on 40+ OTAs
  • •  All compliance and tax handled
  • •  No charge from PropTurn to you

Supported living

Switch agent

Moving takes a week. Not a quarter.

Already with an agent who doesn’t run on PropTurn? We’ll either onboard them, or match you with a local operator who already does. Your notice period, ongoing bookings and compliance records all carry across.

  1. 01

    Tell us the property

    Address, current agent (if any), any bookings in the diary. Two minutes by email or signed-in form.

  2. 02

    We match a partner

    A local operator from the PropTurn partner network takes over management. If your current agent wants to stay, we onboard them onto the platform instead.

  3. 03

    Day one on the dashboard

    You log into your landlord portal. Rent, compliance, tax reserve, statements — all in one place. First full month is your new baseline.

Frequently asked

What landlords ask before they sign.

If yours isn’t here, email landlords@propturn.co.uk and a founder will reply.

What does PropTurn actually cost me as a landlord?

Nothing. PropTurn charges the management company or supported-living provider, not the landlord. Your cost is whatever your chosen operator charges you for their service — typically 12–26% for short-let management (estimated, varies per operator rate card and region), or the agreed rent share for supported-living placements. PropTurn doesn’t add a landlord-facing fee on top.

Who actually operates my property?

A local management company or CQC-registered supported-living provider from PropTurn’s vetted partner network. Every operator on the list has been through our onboarding and contract review. You see who they are before you commit, you pick the one you want, and your agreement is with them — PropTurn just runs the platform they operate on. If you already work with a PM who isn’t in the network yet, we’ll onboard them with you.

What happens to my rent if the operator goes bust?

Your rent sits in ring-fenced client money that the operator can’t touch beyond the contractual pay-out schedule. PropTurn holds a dual-agreement structure that links each landlord both to the operator and to the PropTurn entity — so if the operator fails, your rent and compliance records move to another operator on the platform without a handover gap.

How is the supported-living uplift shared?

The difference between your property’s projected short-let income and the supported-living rent is the uplift. PropTurn facilitates the placement and takes a share for doing so; you and the operator share the rest. Your share sits on top of the signed SL rent. The exact split is agreed per contract — never taken from the base rent.

Can I move my property back to a standard AST later?

Short-let and mid-let arrangements are rolling with 30-day notice. Supported-living is a signed 5- or 10-year lease — the whole point is long-term certainty, so exits before term are the exception and handled case by case with the provider.

Do I need to be tax-registered or a company?

No. PropTurn works for individual-name landlords and Ltd-co landlords. If you’re MTD ITSA-eligible (most landlords from 2026 onwards), PropTurn files on your behalf through HMRC’s agent relationship.

Where does PropTurn operate?

UK-first, starting with Scotland (STR-regulated), London (90-day cap), Manchester, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Cardiff and Bristol. If your property is elsewhere in the UK, we’re likely coming to you — email landlords@propturn.co.uk and we’ll tell you the timeline.
