Frequently Asked Questions

How will the rental value of properties be determined?

The property type, its condition, location and current demand all impact on rental value.

Before placing any property on the market we always conduct a complete and free valuation.

Based on this, and taking current market conditions into account, we’ll advise you about the monthly rental value we think is most appropriate.

In recent years, the professional landlords we work in partnership have been enjoying typical annual yields of between 6 to 8 per cent.

What checks are carried out on tenants?

Finding a high-quality tenant is essential as it provides landlords with a steady income stream - and peace of mind.

We carry out a rigorous tenant application process to be certain they will look after properties and be able to afford their rental payments This includes:

  • Identity and residency checks
  • Financial and credit reference checks
  • Employer and current landlord references
  • 'Right to rent' checks for non-UK applicants
  • Obtaining guarantors - if necessary

How often are properties inspected and reviews conducted?

Once your property has been rented, simply let us know how often you want to be contacted and updated, and which method is best.

We meet with some portfolio holders on a monthly basis for a general round up on all their properties, others are happy with six-monthly or annual reviews.

We carry out a routine, scheduled inspection to ensure your property is being looked after properly and to check for any potential issues. Additional inspections can be arranged.

Should any issues arise, we liaise with landlords and tenants to reach an amicable solution as quickly as possible.

Do landlords need to be present for viewings?

No, we handle the whole process.

Renting property can be a fast-paced environment. Allowing our lettings team to show prospective tenants around ensures landlords don’t miss out on any opportunities.

Our office is open 5 days a week to deal with any queries or questions – and we are certainly open to conducting out of hours viewings upon request. We also provide feedback on viewings.

What are the management fees?

The amount depends on the level of service required. For us to handle the ongoing management of properties, we will deduct our management fees from rent on a monthly basis. Click to see all our landlord fees now!

How is rent collected and paid?

We organise for tenants to pay their rent to us via standing order at the end of each month. We transfer the money to landlords (minus our commission and any fees or invoices) on a the last working day of the month. Statements and invoices are provided every month.

Non-payment of rent is extremely rare.

On the few occasions when it does happen, we chase the tenant for payment and help landlords choose the most appropriate course of action. This may include issuing small claims court proceedings, using a debt collection agency or serving a removal notice if the tenants are still in the property.
