Corporate Tenancies

I've got a lovely 2 bed ground floor flat which I currently have let to a corporate tenant. It's 5 years old, all mod cons, orp, garden, etc. It's been let for the past 18 months and now my tenant is moving out on 22 May and I really need to make sure I don't have a vacant period between tenants. HCR who are looking after it haven't got anyone else lined up yet as they tend to deal with people who want to move in within a week or so. HCR deal specifically with the MOD.
What other companies do you think may look to take on properties on this basis? Due to HCR's stipulations, the flat is fully furnished, even down to crockery and cutlery. Also, they've told me that the rent I'm getting now is more than it's worth and so if let through them again would probably be about £75 per month less. It's in a city, but it's not massive.
Also, to add to the fun, the fixed rate on my mortgage runs out next month, which would be great, but I own the flat jointly with my Dad and he wants us to continue paying the same each month isn't really a problem, but it will be if I have to take a lower rent.
Any ideas?

Getting older is inevitable, growing up is optional :rotfl:
