Letting your house can be a sensible and cost effective alternative to selling whether you are living abroad, your circumstances have changed, you have perhaps inherited a property, or you are seeking a good investment. Either way, your property must be managed professionally and properly to protect what can be regarded as one of the most valuable assets you may own.

Every instruction, whether a single residential property or a portfolio, is treated with the same degree of importance as we strive to achieve the highest standards of client satisfaction.

Landlords can expect to receive sound professional advice, attention to detail and, above all, the comfort of knowing that a dedicated team will be looking after their best interests. This includes:

• Assisting you in structuring a letting package to suit your specific requirements and guiding you through the processes involved, including advising you concerning mortgagee’s and/ or head landlord’s consent, notifying your insurers.
• Advising non-UK residents on their tax liabilities in respect of rental income
• Advising you on your responsibilities to comply with statutory safety regulations.
• Advising you on the market rent of your property, taking into account its location and all of its features
• Exposing your property to the market by advertising and circulating particulars to a comprehensive list of applicants matched to suit your particular property.
• Accompanying all prospective tenants on viewings
• Screening tenants thoroughly to ensure that your interests are protected.
• Preparing the Tenancy Agreement, collecting the rent and a security and dilapidation deposit, ensuring that the tenant takes possession smoothly and accounting to you.
• Provide an inventory and schedule of condition undertaken by an in-house APIP (Association of Professional Inventory Providers) qualified member.

Once a letting has been achieved most of our clients wish to take advantage of our comprehensive management service. This includes:

• Collecting the rent each month
• Paying all outgoings from the rental income
• Accounting to you on a monthly basis
• Arranging and co-ordinating normal maintenance and repairs
• Carrying out periodical visits to the property, reporting to you, and taking any appropriate action.
• Advising utility companies of each change in occupation so they can arrange to bill tenants accordingly
• Reviewing your rent on a annual basis in line with the current market
• Renewing your current tenancy agreements
• Arranging a suitable buildings and contents insurance
