Step 1 · Enquiry
What is available and suitable.
What we do, in detail
Four activities, all carried out as principal rather than agent.
Program 01 · You deal with the owner
Lettings from our portfolio
Dealing with the owner rather than an agent means decisions do not have to be referred, and it also means the agent protections do not apply — so we say so. What we put in place instead is the paperwork that actually protects a tenant: deposit in a scheme, prescribed information served, gas and electrical records provided, alarms fitted.
Step 2 · Checks
Consistent criteria, right to rent.
Step 3 · Documents
Deposit, information, records.
Step 4 · Move in
Inventory and contacts agreed.
Step 1 · Inventory
What each property needs, and when.
Step 2 · Schedule
Ahead of expiry, not after.
Step 3 · Evidence
Records retained and issued.
Step 4 · Review
Licensing and standards rechecked.
Program 02 · Dated and evidenced
Tenancy compliance
Each requirement has its own clock: gas annually, electrical at least every five years, deposits and prescribed information inside thirty days, energy performance above the minimum standard. We track them per property and keep the evidence, because a landlord who did the work but cannot prove it is in much the same position as one who did not.
Program 03 · Fit for habitation
Repairs and condition
Premises must be fit for human habitation throughout a tenancy, not just on day one, and disrepair has to be remedied within a reasonable period of being reported. Damp and mould in particular are treated as a condition problem to investigate rather than something to blame on how a tenant lives, which is the usual unproductive argument.
Step 1 · Report
In writing, so the clock is clear.
Step 2 · Inspect
Cause, not just symptom.
Step 3 · Repair
Within a reasonable period.
Step 4 · Follow up
Checked, not assumed fixed.
Step 1 · Interest
What is being bought or sold.
Step 2 · Terms
Negotiated directly.
Step 3 · Advice
Each side takes its own.
Step 4 · Complete
Through solicitors.
Program 04 · As principal
Acquisitions and disposals
We transact as a principal on our own account, which means a counterparty is dealing with the owner and should take their own professional advice. We do not promote property investments to others, arrange investments or give mortgage, tax or legal advice — all of which require authorisation or qualification we do not claim.
