How to let your property with us
Invite us to value your property
By inviting John German to value your property, not only will you discover how much rental income you can achieve, but you will also have the opportunity to share your plans with us so we can provide you with tailored advice on what to do next.
Stand out from the crowd

Never miss out on a viewing request
Prospective tenants will be able to book a viewing 24/7. Viewings are dealt with by the Lettings team, but if we are closed, our online booking platform will still capture viewing requests automatically – meaning you’ll never miss out on a single one. By choosing our Fully Managed option, you will also be given exclusive access to Property File, an online platform with marketing performance reports and viewing feedback at the click of a button.
Leave the negotiating to us
The key to any successful long-term let is finding reliable tenants, the type who will pay their rent on time and look after your property like it’s their own. Rather than working on a first-come-first-served basis, we will highlight the pros and cons of each applicant so you can make the right decision before proceeding with an application.
Ensure tenants are suitable
Once a tenant’s application has been accepted in principle, our trained and highly experienced Lettings team carry out thorough credit checks, Right to Rent checks and full referencing, both in-house and through our third party providers, to ensure tenants are suitable to move into your property.
Keep on the right side of the law
With over 170 pieces of legislation affecting the rental sector, it’s vital you fulfil your duties as a landlord and comply with regulations. By choosing our Fully Managed option, we will be on hand to share the responsibility by making sure you are kept up-to-date with any changes.
