To compliment our property letting service we provide a comprehensive management/maintenance service covering all aspects of property management. This service can be provided to existing clients as well as to new clients wishing to use any individual service. A brief description of the services offered are as follows but should you require further information on any aspect please contact us to discuss your requirements.

2.1 PROPERTY SEARCH (Matching new owners with properties)
We will search the local market to find properties that meet your personal requirements. We will provide detailed reports and recommendations on everything available that meets your stated requirements with facts and opinions covering much more than the property description provided by the Estate Agents/sellers. We can arrange for digital photos to be taken and emailed to you and where possible we will arrange co-ordinated viewings to minimise wasted time .

2.2 PROPERTY SALES (Matching properties with new owners)
We will undertake the "Estate Agent" aspects of property sales. We will inspect the property, produce detailed descriptions and agree an "offers over" price with the client

We often are aware of potential purchasers of quality properties and where possible will quickly match these with sellers. We will advertise properties for sale in our office and on our web pages. We will arrange local press adverts as agreed with the client and organise viewings, accompanied where required.

2.3 LICENCING OF HOUSES IN MULTIPLE OCCPATION
Recent legislation requires owners of house/premises where there are more than 2 persons living together who are not members of the same family, to apply for and hold a valid licence. We will arrange an initial inspection of the premises and provide a report detailing the work likely to be required to achieve a successful application.

We are able to organise and supervise all works required (including completion of the application forms etc) to meet the standards and achieve a licence.

2.4 PROJECT MANAGEMENT
The need to employ several different tradesmen to undertake various maintenance or upgrading of properties is a daunting task for many people. We can Project Manage the entire project from agreeing the work required, recommending reputable local tradesmen, achieving quotations through to co-ordinating the various trades.

We will also deal with insurance claims that require building works and properties which have been let to students and require upgrading before further lets.

2.5 MANAGEMENT OF VACANT ROPERTY
Insurance companies are increasingly raising premiums for non-occupied (and infrequently-visited) premises or offering reduced premiums when it can be shown that the premises are visited/ inspected regularly. For owners of properties which are to be vacant for any length of time we will provide personally tailored levels of management service. We will visit at any agreed frequency. We can arrange to forward mail, pay utility bills, maintain gardens and grounds etc.

For shorter term absences the provision of "house-sitters" can also be accommodated.

2.6 PROPERTY FACTORING
We can offer a full factoring service for the many properties in the area which have communal areas and thus require factoring.
