Neil Sharpe Property Services Ltd takes great pride in offering an exclusive rental service for landlords and investors alike. Many types of furnished and unfurnished property can be let. Whatever your requirements, anything from a studio flat to prestigious homes. Letting Agreements are undertaken for a minimum period of six months to normally one or two years, which can be renewed as required. We offer a free market appraisal, advise you on the rent to be achieved and answer any questions you may have. Therefore, if you do decide to rent your property you will be able to do so with complete piece of mind. We perform a rigorous vetting procedure on all prospective tenants, which includes checks on financial standing, a thorough examination of their work practices and ethics, including full property management.

On receipt of your instructions, we will prepare marketing particulars of the property for our Letting Consultants to contact applicants already registered with us. The property will then have a board erected, be advertised in the local newspapers, posted onto our well established website and wherever else necessary to attract other good quality tenants. We will accompany all prospective tenants to view the property. (It is advisable for us to hold a set of keys for convenience).

Once we have an interested tenant, we take a non-refundable holding deposit and apply to a specialised research company for references on the potential tenant’s creditability. When satisfactory references have been received, together with proof of residence and proof of I.D., we will then prepare the necessary letting agreements together with The Notice Requiring Possession. The tenants will then be required to provide us with one month’s rent in advance plus a deposit against damages prior to their occupation (the deposit amount will be calculated during the market appraisal. The deposit should be returned to the tenants at the end of their agreement, subject to everything being left in a satisfactory order). If required we will prepare an inventory of items to be left at the property for guidance on your behalf. Once the monies are cleared and all documents are signed, we will move the tenants into the property. In order to minimise any void periods, two months prior to the end of the contract we write to both you and the tenants to see if there is a wish to re-new the tenancy.
