Full Management Plan

13.2% of the monthly rent incl VAT with a £300 (£360 incl VAT) setup fee – NO ADDED EXTRAS

Instructing an agent to manage your property is a huge decision and one that can be very stressful. The reality is you’re trusting one of your most valuable assets with a company you may never have worked with before and that can be scary. Property management is a responsibility that we take incredibly seriously and we promise complete support from start to finish with any matters relating to the property, tenants or tenancy. 

As with our Let Only Service we place a huge amount of emphasis in finding the right person for your property. Once you confirm you’re happy with our selection, you will then step back, safe in the knowledge that we will manage your interests in line with all the ever-changing industry rules and legislation and most importantly that we will always be available if you should need us.
