Girlings is offering 'Bespoke Rentals'. You tell us what you want, where you would like to live and which retirement development appeals to you. Town centre, quiet village or by the seaside... No promises, however we will do what we can to find you a suitable property to rent.

Either with Girlings' help, or on your own, you find a suitable retirement property, usually a one bedroom apartment within a purpose built retirement development, which may be on the market for sale. Provided the property meets Girlings' criteria for quality and price etc., and is in a professionally managed development, we can then proceed to negotiate the purchase of the property and rent it to you on a life time tenancy. You will then have the home of your choice with no capital outlay and no maintenance worries. All you have to do is choose your new home and enjoy your retirement!

Although we will endeavour to acquire your chosen property there are no guarantees in the current property market. 

To get you started we list below examples of developments where we have recently been successful in purchasing a property. We may well be able to purchase further properties in these developments and others across the country. Once you have found an area in which you interested simply ring our Lettings Team on freephone 0800 525 184 or email bespoke@girlings.co.uk.
