For landlords

Lettings without the guesswork

Three service levels, one set of published fees, and advice that would rather lose the instruction than inflate the rent figure.

Your property is probably your largest asset after your home. Letting it well is a decade-long project of small decisions: the right rent, the right tenant, the right repair at the right time. Our landlord services are built around that project, not around a quick placement.

Choose the level that fits how hands-on you want to be. Tenant find places a fully referenced tenant and hands the tenancy to you. Rent collection adds the money flow: collection, arrears chasing and monthly statements. Full management hands us the keys and the diary, and you hear from us with statements, inspection reports and decisions worth making.

Whichever you choose, the start is the same: a free valuation grounded in comparable lets, a compliance check on the property, and a plain-English cost plan. If we think your rent expectation is too high, we will show you why with evidence rather than list it and let it sit.

Three ways to work with us

Same standards, different levels of help

Tenant find

For landlords who manage their own properties. We value, market, conduct viewings, reference, prepare the tenancy and coordinate move-in. Then you take the wheel with a complete document pack.

  • Comparable-based valuation and listing
  • Accompanied viewings, evenings and Saturdays
  • Full referencing and right-to-rent checks
  • Deposit registered within 30 days, prescribed information issued
Home Standard · referencing in 5 working days

Rent collection

Tenant find plus the money flow handled. We collect and reconcile rent monthly, chase arrears from day one, and pay you with a statement that itemises everything.

  • Everything in tenant find
  • Monthly rent collection and reconciliation
  • Arrears process from day one, escalation with you at day fourteen
  • Rent protection options available
Home Standard · arrears chased from day one

Full management

The whole tenancy run for you: compliance calendar, inspections, maintenance, renewals and a named manager who knows the building. You make the decisions; we do the doing.

  • Everything in rent collection
  • Compliance calendar with nothing left to lapse
  • Six-monthly photo inspections and maintenance handling
  • Renewals negotiated early with evidence
Home Standard · named manager per property

Compliance first

The legal bits, handled before they bite

Landlord obligations in England are not optional, and the penalties for missing them are real: unlimited fines for unregistered deposits, civil penalties for safety certificate lapses, and rent repayment orders in the worst cases. We keep the calendar, chase the renewals and store the certificates where you can find them.

  • Deposit protection within 30 days, with prescribed information
  • Gas safety every 12 months by a Gas Safe engineer
  • EPC rated E or above before marketing begins
  • Electrical inspection (EICR) at least every 5 years
  • Right-to-rent checks documented and diarised for expiry
  • Smoke alarms on every storey, CO alarms where required

What to expect, month by month

Month zero: valuation and preparation

Comparable-based valuation, compliance audit, works list if needed, photography and listing copy. We tell you honestly what will raise rent and what will not.

Months one to two: marketing and move-in

Live marketing within 48 hours, accompanied viewings in week one, referencing in five working days from application, inventory, deposit registration and a coordinated move-in day.

Months three to twelve: the steady state

Monthly statements, six-month inspection with photos, maintenance handled to your thresholds, rent reviewed against the market at renewal with evidence, not vibes.

Month twelve and beyond: renewal or re-let

Renewal conversation two months early. Good tenants stay when the process is professional; when they do move on, checkout, deposit proposal and re-letting start the same week.

Landlords start here

The valuation is free and the advice is honest. If your property is not right to let yet, we will tell you that too.
