Services We Offer

We offer 2 levels of services to landlords; Let Only or Full Management. Whichever service you go for, we will market the property with the same proactive approach. The only difference is what happens once a tenant has been found:

Evaluating and marketing your property

Property rental appraisal

Advice on regulations and landlord responsibilities

Advice on improvements and modifications to maximise income and yields

Arranging required documentation for gas safety and energy performance certificates

Marketing of the property on the internet using all the main property websites and a To Let board outside your property

Accompanied viewings around your property with prospective tenants with flexible evening and weekend appointment

Selecting the tenants

During the viewings we will work hard to establish the tenant's suitability

All potential tenants are carefully vetted prior to us proceeding. Enquiries are made through a specialist referencing agency, which also checks the applicant's credit history and carries out full financial checks to give peace of mind before the start of any tenancy.

Full Management Service

Includes evaluation and marketing of your property and tenant selection

Preparing and completing the tenancy agreement with your tenant

Collect the deposit and initial rent payment before tenancy commences

We will pay the deposit into your chosen deposit scheme

We will compile a thorough inventory of your property, supported by photographic evidence, to record the condition of the property. This is checked at the end of the tenancy, to ensure there are no defects other than the normal wear and tear, before refunding the tenant's deposit

Undertake regular property inspections; visiting your property after 3 months on a new tenancy and then every 6 months to make sure it's in top condition. If we think any works need doing we will let you know.

Day to day maintenance, we will look after your property and manage your tenants if there are any maintenance issues; from a leaking tap to re-decorating, using our approved team of contractors. If you prefer, we can use your own contractor. We do not charge you for this service

We will collect the rent on your behalf and transfer it directly to your bank account, after any deductions. We will arrange to pay any contractors bills on your behalf
