OpenRent

OpenRent is a UK rental property platform that helps landlords advertise homes and find tenants, while giving renters a way to search for available properties and contact landlords directly. The service aims to make renting faster, safer and more affordable, with no tenant admin fees and options for landlords to advertise for free or choose paid promotion. Property listings can be promoted on major portals including Rightmove, Zoopla and PrimeLocation.

Landlords can use OpenRent for more than advertising. Its services include tenancy creation and agreements, tenant referencing, rent collection, property management, inventory and photography, accompanied viewings, mid-tenancy inspections, and support with gas safety, EPCs and electrical safety. Insurance, legal support and eviction notices are also listed among its offerings. Landlords remain in control of the process and can select the services they need, with no hidden or renewal fees advertised.

Tenants can search rental listings, save searches, receive alerts for matching properties and message landlords throughout the process. OpenRent also states that rent and deposits are protected.
