Landlord Advisory Service

What the service offers

Our Landlord Advisory Service is designed for landlords who want to find and install a tenant themselves without paying for the traditional agent service where the agent advertises the property, shows people around and sets up the tenancy. It provides structured guidance through the letting process, from preparing your property and creating the listing to reviewing applicants and making sure all paperwork and compliance requirements are completed correctly.

You remain hands-on with the practical steps, while we give you the expertise and oversight to do it confidently and avoid costly mistakes.

Why choose our advisory service?

Letting a property can feel daunting, especially with new rules like the Renters’ Rights Bill making compliance tougher than ever. But legal changes are only part of the picture. The bigger risk for many landlords is choosing the wrong tenant. A bad decision at the start can lead to rent arrears, property damage, disputes and ultimately a costly eviction process. Even if things do not go that far, wasted time with unsuitable applicants means longer void periods, and every week a property sits empty is income you will never get back.

That is why our advisory service exists. If you want to stay hands-on but avoid the costly mistakes, we will give you the insight and structure to spot red flags early, keep your process compliant, and steer clear of shortcuts that end up wasting your time and money. With expert guidance behind you, you can move forward with confidence that your property is protected and your letting experience runs more smoothly.

Our guidance in practice

We’ll walk you through the essentials of letting safely and effectively, including:

Valuation and pricing strategy – set rent that balances income with attracting the right tenant.

Advertising and presentation – create a standout listing and description that draws quality tenants.

Handling enquiries – manage replies and filter applicants so you only spend time on the right prospects.

Viewings and offers – run viewings professionally and negotiate without losing good tenants.

Vetting and tenant selection – spot red flags, compare applicants, and make confident choices.

Referencing guidance – set fair thresholds, know what to check, and understand the results.

Renters’ Rights Bill guidance – understand the laws and avoid getting caught out by new rules that can lead to penalties.

Tenancy paperwork – ensure agreements and documents are completed properly from the start, leaving no gaps.

Compliance requirements – the legal framework is detailed and unforgiving. We guide you through it so nothing is missed.

Move-in readiness – have the property and paperwork in place for a smooth and professional tenancy start.
