SOME OF THE THINGS TO CONSIDER FIRST

With this ever changing industry we understand the information and legal requirements can be overwhelming for a landlord. It has never been more vital that you employ an agent you can trust to not only make sure you are fully compliant with the law, but also to find you tenants that will look after your property and make it financially viable - achieving the highest level of rental income. The Government has brought in strict laws with processes and timescales that must be abided by, as the financial and legal penalties for landlord’s for non-compliance can be significant.

We’re not imposters posing to be specialists within this industry, our trusted reputation and longevity shows you we are! Because of this we are proud to have consistently been Maldon’s number 1 Letting Agent since opening our doors in 2008*. We also want you to know that we love what we do and are passionate about it. 

Additionally, you can benefit from our being an independent company whose services can be tailor made to your specific requirements.

Once you instruct us you can trust we will guide you thoroughly through the process, taking care of everything on your behalf**.

We will keep you fully updated step by step and will follow your instructions carefully, as at the end of the day the final decision is yours. 

Where we manage your property we will keep on top of any maintenance that arises at the property and keep all legally required safety certificates up to date. We will regularly inspect the property sending our specialised reports with photographs of any areas of concern. 

We have a team of trusted professional trades people and cleaners who specialise in tenancy services that are readily on hand to provide estimates and works where required.

A thorough inventory is imperative to being able to make any deductions from the deposit at the end of the tenancy. Our written and photographic inventories are extremely detailed, thus protecting you for any deductions for damages to the property. This along with our expertise in negotiating in these difficult areas is key.

And of course we will promptly collect the rent on your behalf producing monthly statements through our specialised property software system. As well as dealing with any arrears or late payments on your behalf, issuing any legal notices that may need to be served throughout the tenancy for any reason, even attending court where required.
