Information for Prospective Landlords

We offer free market appraisals together with friendly, professional advice to anyone considering letting their property. We are pleased to offer a range of services tailored to suit individual requirements, from Let Only through to Full Management.

Our services are outlined below.

Let Only Service

Our Let Only service includes:

  • Marketing your property through major online property portals, our office display and other appropriate advertising channels.
  • Accompanying viewings where required.
  • Finding suitable prospective tenants and carrying out referencing and Right to Rent checks in accordance with current legislation.
  • Assisting with compliance requirements prior to the commencement of the tenancy, including guidance relating to:
    • Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)
    • Gas Safety Certificates
    • Electrical Installation Condition Reports (EICRs)
    • Smoke and carbon monoxide alarm requirements
    • Renters’ Rights Act compliance

  • Collecting the first month’s rent in advance.

  • Notifying the relevant utility providers and local authority of the change of occupancy.

Our commission for the LET ONLY service is a one-off fee equivalent to 60% (50% plus VAT) of one month’s rent.

For example, on a property achieving a rent of £1,500 pcm, the fee payable would be £900 (£750 plus VAT), due upon successful commencement of the tenancy.

Our commission for FULL MANAGEMENT is 12% (10% plus VAT) of the monthly rent collected.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, there would be no additional management charges for the above service.

Important Information for Landlords

Landlords remain legally responsible for ensuring that their property complies with all applicable legislation throughout the tenancy.

Recent legislative changes, including the Renters’ Rights Act 2025, have introduced significant reforms affecting tenancy structures, possession procedures, rent increases and tenant rights. We are happy to provide guidance to help landlords remain compliant with current regulations.

Please note that changes in legislation may occasionally require additional compliance actions or documentation during the course of a tenancy.

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any further information or wish to arrange a free market appraisal.
