Central Suffolk Lettings has been developed by Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils. We want to increase access to good quality, affordable homes, in the private rented sector, for eligible residents.
We provide a rent guarantee service to private sector landlords with a property to rent out. We understand how important your property is, and care about the service we offer to you.
All properties on the rent guarantee scheme need to have rent levels set at the Local Housing Allowance rates. The rates are reviewed annually by Central Government and 2025/26 rates can be found here:
Local Housing Allowance rates applicable from April 2025 to March 2026
Legislation is often changing and by placing your property with Central Suffolk Lettings we will help you to feel reassured that your property, tenant and tenancy are fully compliant with all relevant and up to date legislation. As part of our service to you as a landlord we offer housing advice throughout your letting experience with us.
We will support you to do this and will assist in the preparation and service of notices – we will support your tenant through this process also. Any court costs that are incurred for application fees can be claimed through the deposit bond.
Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Councils offer advice and guidance to private landlords, homeowners and tenants on most housing and property related matters.
As a local landlord, you play an important role in Suffolk’s private rented sector (PRS) and local economy. We understand the challenges landlords face and offer information and advice to landlords free of charge.
We also hold free events and conferences for landlords throughout the year and produce a free newsletter for landlords. If you would like to sign up for our newsletter and information about our events, go to our website: "Safe Suffolk Renters"
Homelessness can affect anyone at anytime – Central Suffolk Lettings look to match homeless households with the right landlord and the right property to make a perfect match! – the tenants we find for you have rented in the private sector before, they will have completed an affordability assessment for your property and will have a positive landlord reference.
Your tenants will have access to full tenancy support for any changes they may face along the way – we will ensure your tenant is fully equipped with all the tools they need to look after and make your property a home. Our commitment to your tenant will be knowing they can contact us at any time, for any tenants that would like to join our tenancy sustainment plan we will also make routine home telephone calls to them to check all is going well and we’ll send you an update! Routine inspections will be carried out after 3 months and are then subject to available of lettings officers and should be agreed with landlords at time of letting.
Hi Stephanie, I would like to thank you for your professionalism in finding Jenny (new tenant) for us.
I'm very happy with the excellent service you are providing (Private landlord)
I would have no problem in recommending the service you provide to other agents and tenants alike.
A really effective way of helping with tenants that do not quite fit agents' criteria who had nowhere else to turn unless had a guarantor which you guys effectively are (Private letting agent)
