• Council tax bill (valid until the end of June each year if applicable)

We understand finding suitable tenants can be a bit of a challenge especially when you are looking for hassle free FULLY VETTED tenants.

We take care of every aspect of the letting process for you - from advertising your property and CHECKING your prospective tenant’s CREDIT HISTORY/REFERENCING right through to all the ADMINISTRATIVE TASKS such as preparing the necessary legal documents and dealing with the council and utility companies.
