Everything included in the Tenant-Find and Rent-Collection Services, plus:-
1. 24 hour access to our staff – Whether in or out of office hours, you will be able to contact us with any queries or concerns you might have. We think it is really important that there is always someone for you to be able to contact about your property and so giving you access to our staff 24/7 ensures the highest level of customer service.

2. Key holding service - We will hold spare keys in the event of any maintenance issues, property inspections or any other reason we may need to gain access into your property.

3. 24 Hour emergency contact- this service offers 24hour support to your tenants in the event of an emergency at the property, such as a burst pipe. It saves you both hassle and money, because emergencies can be dealt with immediately, which could save you from bigger, more costly repairs.

4. Credit control - When dealing with maintenance issues it is our priority to ensure the job is done correctly, but very importantly also for a competitive price. We have long standing relationships with local contractors that are priced fairly but are also high skilled professionals in their industry.

5. Property inspections- We will undertake quarterly inspections of your property to ensure your tenants are looking after your property in the way we would expect them to. It is also our opportunity to be proactive and action any issues that haven’t been reported by tenants, that if left untreated could become expensive to rectify in the future.

6. Inventory and check-in – We will organise the property inventory for you and ensure tenants are clear about the property condition and contents. Without an inventory, your tenants may be able to claim their deposit in full regardless of any damage done to your property during their tenancy.

7. Arrangement of the check-out process- We will liaise with your tenants (or their named representative) and arrange the checkout process with them ensuring all parties are happy with the condition of the property at the end of a tenancy and approve release of their deposit once any issues have been resolved.
