About FlatHomes

Welcome to FlatHomes – where local expertise meets family values.

Established in 2000, FlatHomes began with a simple yet powerful vision: to provide dedicated support to independent landlords. Our story started, quite literally, from a conservatory, where our founder, Gwilym Rees, a private landlord himself, set out to help others like him connect with suitable Contract Holders for their vacant properties.

The name "FlatHomes" is a nod to our deep roots in the region, inspired by Flat Holm, the historic island nestled in the Bristol Channel – a landmark visible from many of the areas we proudly serve.

From those humble beginnings, our commitment to service quickly resonated with the local community. What started as a focused effort to assist landlords in Cardiff and Penarth soon expanded to cover parts of Barry, Newport, and the lower valleys, reflecting the trust and demand for our tailored approach.

Today, FlatHomes remains a proud family-run business, but our scope has grown significantly. We now offer a comprehensive suite of property services, expertly guiding both landlords and Contract Holders through every aspect of the property journey. Whether you're looking to let your property, find your next home, or require professional property management, our experienced team is here to provide reliable, efficient, and friendly support.

At FlatHomes, we believe in building lasting relationships based on transparency, integrity, and a genuine understanding of the local property market. We're not just about properties; we're about people and communities.

We look forward to helping you achieve your property goals.

"Staff & Maintenance. I am so pleased that I chose to rent from Flathomes over 3 years ago; Samantha, Ayesha and Celia have always been considerate, approachable, friendly and efficient when dealing with queries. I also want to highlight how great Paul from maintenance is - he was incredibly considerate last week when carrying out his work and is another fantastic member of the Flathomes team. Thank you to all!"

Lee, Tenant

"Highly Recommend! We recently moved to a new home managed by FlatHomes and have been extremely impressed with their service so far. From our initial enquiries about the property to collecting the keys, everything was very well managed with excellent communication throughout. On moving in we noticed some very minor cleaning and maintenance issues, which were resolved within a week by friendly, professional contractors. We would highly recommend FlatHomes for anyone wanting a fuss-free rental property in Cardiff."

"Professional and Friendly Service! Found everybody to be very professional and friendly. Easy to contact and are very efficient at what they do. They manage their properties expertly and with due diligence. It is reassuring to rent a property with FlatHomes. To be a Gold Winner at the British Property Awards was well deserved."
