compliance and conditions

We will take care of any legal obligations and can help you to remain compliant with all current relevant legislation, ensuring everything is current and up to date.

Inspections

We carry out regular inspections to ensure the property is well  maintained. We have good relationships with our customers and quickly deal with any issues they may be experiencing. 

E. g. furniture/fire regulations and smoke/carbon monoxide detectors.

Before we agree to manage your property we require 2 x proof of ID and proof of ownership of the property in question. 

Inventory

Before  we agree to manage your property you may decide to obtain an inventory from an independent company or, if you prefer, we can arrange this for you.

As the owner of the property you are responsible for building insurance, which includes contents insurance. 

A residential  insurance will not be adequate and you will need to hold either a buy-to-let policy or specialist HMO policy. 

We have public liability insurance. We  advise our customers to obtain their own contents insurance. 

We will organise a Gas Safe Inspection on your behalf and be at the property to meet the engineer. 

This test is a legal requirement to ensure all gas appliances in the property are safe. It must be renewed annually as there are serious penalties for not having a valid certificate  

We retain a copy and send you the original. 

We will pass on any maintenance issues to the landlord or letting agent.  We focus on ensuring the property is well maintained.  

Letting agents are experts in their field and have all the resources to promptly resolve maintenance issues typically.  We can however offer to manage the property if the Landlord wishes to, giving you stress free passive income from your property. 

We'll hand you back your property in the same or better condition than it was before.  You'll even have the option to keep all the furniture or extend our agreement. 

Should you decide to terminate the agreement between us, we require a  minimum of 6 months notice.  We may have signed a 6 month AST with a tenant, for example, and this way the property gets returned to you vacated.
