Let your property the cheerful way.Flat-fee letting: £40/month, no commission.
Screening, signing, rent collection, repairs and legal compliance — the whole tenancy, run for you, for one flat £40 a month. No agency, no commission, and your tenant sees exactly what you see.
Letting, minus the headaches
Add your property in minutes
Type the address, pick our government-standard tenancy agreement (or upload your own — we read it for you), and you're set.
Invite, screen and sign
Your tenant joins by secure invite, passes Greenlight — our built-in screening — and everyone signs online. Legally binding.
Rent lands, we do the rest
Rent arrives by standing order, we detect it the moment it lands, verify it, and pay you out — with WhatsApp updates both ways.
Everything a tenancy needs, in one place
From screening the tenant to the month rent lands, the admin runs itself — so you don't need a high-street agent, and you never wonder where you stand.
Greenlight tenant screening
Right-to-rent, affordability, previous-landlord reference and CCJ check — built in, no referencing agency, no per-tenant fee.
Rent detected the moment it lands
Standing orders hit our account and match your tenancy by unique reference automatically. Verified, then paid out to you.
Legal compliance, tracked
Deposit protection, gas safety, EPC, EICR, the written tenancy information: every deadline chased for you, and your tenant sees the same record.
Sign online, keep the PDF
Government-standard tenancy and lodger agreements, e-signed by everyone; the signed copy lives in both your Documents.
Repairs with a curated top 3
Tenants report issues with photos or video; you pick a vetted tradesperson from our shortlist — and they get the job on WhatsApp.
WhatsApp, email and dashboard
Rent received, payout sent, agreement signed, repair updates — every event reaches both sides on the channel they actually read.
Any currency
Let in pounds, euros, dollars and more — set the currency per property, tenants get the right payment details, you see honest totals.
AI does the paperwork
Upload a lease and we read the address, rent and dates. Upload a payslip and Greenlight checks affordability. Nothing to retype.

Our built-in tenant screening — four checks, no referencing agency: right to rent (gov.uk share code), affordability (AI reads one payslip, keeps the result, never the document), previous landlord reference (three questions, answered online) and an official CCJ search. You see the evidence for each check and make the decision; your tenant's documents stay private.
Your rental should be passive income. We handle the day-to-day; you only hear from us when it matters.
“I started Cheerfulrent because I hated waiting days to hear back from my own management company.”
Questions landlords ask
Do you find tenants?
Not yet. We manage tenancies that already have a tenant, and we check tenants you have found yourself with Greenlight.
What does it cost?
£40 a month flat, or £99 on the Overseas Landlord plan. No percentage, no commission, and no fee until your first rent is collected. The fee comes out of collected rent, so there is no card to add.
Can I switch from my agent without moving my tenant?
Yes. Your tenant stays where they are. Reserve your switch and we work out the date from your agent's notice period, then confirm everything with you before you give notice.
