Residential and Commercial Portfolio Management

Residential property portfolio management is about ensuring the upkeep and maintenance of the property portfolio to a decent standard.

It is also about ensuring that the mundane, but vital tasks such as building insurance and company accounts are administered in a correct and timely manner.

We can act on behalf of the owner to lift away the worries and hassle of complex and time consuming property portfolio management tasks.

Renting your property can be both time consuming and expensive. There are a number of property portfolio management options and these are discussed in some detail below.

Introduction Only:

The tenant introduction service gives landlords the most basic of all services available.

It consists of:

• market appraisal – assess the best rent for property;
• marketing and advertising of the property on more than 30 internet property portals;
• erect a "TO LET" board;
• finding suitable tenants for your property;
• negotiate an acceptable rent;
• negotiate other terms, as required;
• applying for references;
• preparing the tenancy and the tenancy agreement;
• preparing of detailed inventory;
• collection of the first month's rent and deposit;
• protecting the deposit under The Deposit Protection Scheme

Our charges are deducted from the first month's rent and deposit. As landlord you will be responsible for all future property management issues.

Rent Collection:

The rent collection service includes all the services offered under the introduction only service, together with a rent collection service.

Once rent is collected the collection commission is deducted and balance is paid to the landlord.

The landlord is expected to arrange to inspect the property and deal with any repairs under the terms of the agreement. The issues of notices to quit are normally dealt with by ourselves but the landlord will need to make his or her own arrangements to deal with all aspects of the tenant moving out and related property management issues.

Full Management:

The fully managed property portfolio service offered is the most comprehensive and deals with almost all the issues of property management required on a daily basis.

Urgent repairs will be undertaken as needed and quotes will be obtained for other non-essential matters.

The payment for any expenditure will be deducted from rents collected before any payments are made to the landlord.

For landlords who work or live abroad or in remote locations this property management service is essential as all matters are left in our capable hands.
