New platform opens in the United Kingdom as the one-month cap on rent in advance closes a common workaround for international renters.
London, England, October 5, 2026 -- LANDED Rentals (LANDED) is a new rental marketplace launching today in London. It gives people moving to the UK for work a way to find a long-term home and apply on the strength of their income, employment contract and savings rather than a UK credit history that they have not yet had time to build.

Standard tenant referencing leans heavily on a UK credit file and a UK-based guarantor - which many people arriving for a confirmed job do not have, regardless of how much they earn. For years, a common workaround was to pay several months’ rent upfront. However, since 1 May 2026, the Renters’ Rights Act of 2025 has limited rent in advance on new private tenancies in England to one month, which removes that option.
LANDED is built for that gap. Renters are able to search long-term listings and can build a profile around the evidence landlords actually need: proof of income, an employment contract and savings. Landlords list properties, review applicants’ documents and message them directly in one place.
“We started LANDED Rentals because we had lived the other side of it,” said Sarah Di Benedetto, Co-Founder of LANDED. “We watched people with good jobs and steady incomes get turned away because their paperwork didn’t fit a UK template. A new job in a new country is hard enough. Finding somewhere to live shouldn’t be the part that adds stress to families.”
“Landlords aren’t trying to turn good tenants away. They just need clear information to make a decision,” said Michele Pio Corveddu, Co-Founder of LANDED. “LANDED puts that information in front of them in an organised way, so a strong applicant isn’t ruled out simply because they’re new to the country.”
The platform is live as of today. Renters and landlords can join at landedrentals.com.
About LANDED Rentals
LANDED Rentals was founded by Sarah Di Benedetto and Michele Pio Corveddu to target a specific gap in the UK rental market for overseas workers. It provides people relocating to the UK for work with a way to identify long-term rental properties and apply without worrying about having a UK credit file. The platform exists as a marketplace for landlords and renters, making it easier for both to find what they’re looking for.
