In short: Yes, a limited company can rent a home, usually to house employees or contractors. Because a company isn't an individual, a company let isn't an assured tenancy, so most Housing Act rules and the Renters' Rights Act tenancy reforms don't apply in the same way; the agreement is governed mainly by the contract. That makes the written terms crucial: length, break options, who will live there, repairs, deposits and notice. Landlords still have safety and licensing duties. Fraser Bond arranges company lets and corporate housing across London.
