Landlords
Our letting & property management department has been provides a very professional, friendly and personalised service to suit the individual needs of our clients.
If you are thinking of letting your property or considering changing the agent that is currently managing your property then we would welcome the opportunity to discuss your individual requirements without obligation. We are able to offer you three different service levels to choose from:-
Tenant Introduction Service
This service is ideal if you simply want us to find you a tenant. Once the tenancy has commenced then any issues that may arise would be dealt with by yourself and the tenant, although we would remain on hand to offer advice and extend the lease as required. For this we would:-
-
Provide a free market rent appraisal.
-
Erect our 'To Let' board if required.
-
Prepare the property particulars with colour images.
-
Your property would be prominently displayed in our window.
-
Regular updates of your property would be forwarded to our applicant database via telephone, SMS, post and email.
-
You will receive regular updates and progress reports.
-
There is extensive website marketing through our own website, rightmove, zoopla, prime location, findaproperty & many other portals.
-
Should you wish, we would happily accompany all your viewings.
-
All our administration is supported by the latest 'letting & management' software.
And once a tenancy had been agreed for your property we would:-
-
Reference your proposed tenant using an Independent referencing agency.
-
Prepare the Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement.
-
On your behalf we would arrange for the Tenant to sign the Tenancy Agreement.

Unless otherwise instructed, we would sign the Tenancy Agreement on your behalf.
-
Prior to your tenant moving in we would arrange to collect and clear the first months rent in advance together with a deposit which would be equivalent to a month & half of the agreed rent.
-
Payment of the of the rent less our fees but including the deposit will be made to you or your bank account.

This would be a less expensive option should you be happy to deal with any issues that may arise during the letting period. In addition to the above we would:-
-
Collect the rent from your Tenant on a monthly basis.
-
Arrange for any lease extensions and serve any relevant notices.
Fully Managed Service
With this service, we would handle absolutely everything for you. Once we have found a suitable Tenant for you and all references have been approved, we would:-

We would hold the Tenants deposit and register this.
-
The Tenant would be 'checked in' to your property.
