Cornwall Council's Private Letting Service offers landlords a supported way to let their property while helping local people find a place to call home.
Through our Landlord Incentive Scheme, financial incentives may be available for landlords who can offer suitable accommodation. But that's only part of the benefit.
What makes us different is the support we provide throughout the tenancy. Our team works closely with both landlords and tenants to help create stable, successful tenancies that work for everyone.
Why choose Cornwall Council's Private Letting Service?
'I've had nothing but good experiences at every stage of it all”
Letting a property can feel more complicated than ever. Landlords are navigating changes in legislation, increasing responsibilities and growing expectations around tenancy management.
Our experienced team is here to help.
Unlike many high street letting services, we provide dedicated support to tenants throughout the tenancy.
By offering one-to-one support and early intervention, we can help address issues before they become bigger problems and support sustainable, long-term tenancies.
When you work with us, you'll have direct access to a council-run service that understands both the needs of landlords and the challenges facing local housing.
What are the benefits?
Landlords who work with us may benefit from:
financial incentives for eligible properties.
help finding suitable tenants.
one-to-one support for tenants throughout the tenancy.
early intervention if issues arise.
advice from an experienced lettings team.
optional property management services.
support from a council-run service that understands current housing legislation and landlord responsibilities.

Type of properties
We're looking for suitable homes across Cornwall that can help meet local housing need.
If you're unsure whether your property would be suitable, please get in touch for an informal conversation.
The support we provide
Our team provides ongoing one-to-one support to tenants throughout the tenancy.
This can help tenants settle into their new home, manage challenges and maintain a successful tenancy.
Support during issues
We believe early intervention is the best approach. Our team works closely with landlords and tenants to help resolve issues quickly and maintain positive tenancy relationships wherever possible.
Unlike some other agencies, we have dedicated Tenancy Sustainment Officers, who provide hands-on support, helping to prevent issues become problems.
Support options
We can discuss a range of management and support options to suit your circumstances.
Creating successful tenancies
Our aim is simple: to create sustainable tenancies that work for landlords and tenants alike.
We work with people moving on from temporary accommodation and help them settle into long-term homes in the community.
Through ongoing support and regular contact, we help create the foundations for successful tenancies and positive outcomes.
For landlords, that means having an experienced partner who remains involved and committed to making the tenancy a success.
