Find Your Let – Private Rented Solutions
The Private Rented Solutions (PRS) service will help with a bond guarantee and can offer other landlord incentives for a suitable private rented property in Sheffield. It is important that the property you choose is suitable for you and your household.
Before your application can be accepted, we will investigate that you are in housing need and assess the property is suitable for you and your household based on factors such as property condition, affordability, size, and location etc. If the property does not meet the suitability criteria, we will not be able to offer you a guarantee on that property and you will be asked to look again.
It would be good for you to know what rent you can afford before you start your property search. You can get some good information on affordability through the Entitled To website here is the link: www.entitledto.co.uk
Here are some commercial websites you may find useful to search.

Once you find something that you are interested in fill out the form below with as much information as possible and email it to PRS. We will then contact the landlord on your behalf. All properties let through us will be inspected by Private Housing Standards to make sure they are of a good standard and the landlord will go through a Fit and Proper check so we can be as sure as possible they are a good landlord. We will only support safe and affordable tenancies where the landlord is willing to engage with us.
