Our Services

Full Management service

Let us look after EVERYTHING. Just sit back, relax & enjoy the income generated by your property!

• First we’ll find you the right tenant and use an independent referencing company to thoroughly check their references.

   

• We’ll then set up all the legal aspects of the letting including drawing up legally binding tenancy agreements; registering the tenancy deposit; and making sure you have all the relevant safety certificates in place.

   

• Before the tenancy starts we’ll instruct one of our independent qualified inventory clerks to provide a comprehensive inventory & schedule of condition. (Additional costs apply)

   

• Once the tenancy is underway, we’ll collect the rent in advance each month and pay it to your designated account. Our state of the art accounting systems ensure you’ll receive your money as soon as possible.

   

• Within the first six weeks of the tenancy starting we will visit the tenants at your property to make sure everything is going as it should be. We will then carry out inspections on a 3-monthly basis.

   

• We will deal with any maintenance issues that arise. We work really hard to maintain great relationships with all our tradesmen, and that way we can guarantee the fastest response, the best possible prices and the highest quality of workmanship. Of course, if you have your own trusted tradesmen that you like to rely on we will work closely with them to make sure your property and your tenants still receive the same level of care.

   

• During the tenancy we will keep your safety certificates up-to-date to make sure your property is always compliant with ever-changing lettings legislation.

   

• We will arrange extensions and renewals of the tenancy when needed.

   

• At the end of the tenancy we will arrange for one of our independent qualified inventory clerks to provide a comprehensive check-out report against the inventory & schedule of condition that was drawn up at the start of the tenancy. This will ensure the property is returned to you in the correct condition, and if any work is required we’ll organise it and make deductions from the tenants deposit to cover it where necessary.
