Property Management FAQ's
How does it work?
We effectively become your tenant, guaranteeing you a fixed rental income and then sub-let the property on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST). You will continue to receive the agreed rent regardless of whether the property is empty or the tenant stops paying rent, unless rendered uninhabitable. As such, it is in our interests to find the best possible tenant. We will even deal with damages at the end of the tenancy, subject to a maximum value equivalent to 6 weeks rent.
What are the benefits for landlords?
No void periods, no rent arrears, no commission, no set-up fees, no renewal fees or any other “hidden extras”. No need to deal with the tenants at all. We can be flexible with payment dates, contract lengths, and start dates.
Is it right for me?
Finding the property management service for you depends on the level of responsibility and risk you are prepared to take. Our Guaranteed Rent service best suits landlords who want the financial stability of knowing what their rental income will be each month, with the benefits of the best property management available.
How long is the contract?
Depending on the property, we can offer contract periods from a minimum of 12 months up to 5 years.
Which areas do you cover?
We are a currently covering Oxfordshire and in particular Oxford, Abingdon and Didcot. Please see the Contact page for a map showing these locations.
What about the internal condition of the property?
When we manage the property, we take the normal deposit from the tenant/s, which is then registered with an approved deposit protection service. When the tenant/s leaves the property, the deposit is used to cover the cost of any damages. We guarantee to pay you up to 1.5 times the monthly rent, subject to fair wear and tear, in respect of the condition of the property.
What do I do next?
