‘FRESH PREMIUM MANAGED’ SERVICE - COMMISSION18%(15%+VAT)
If you choose to select this service the points below will be carried out:
You will be appointed a Personal Property Manager within the office. This staff member will be your main point of contact for any tenancy related matters. They will also be the main point of contact for the tenant(s).
We will commence a marketing campaign and list your property through leading property portals such as OnTheMarket.com, Zoopla and Primelocation. com as well as our own popular website.
We will also market the property through our bright and modern showrooms at Uplands and Morriston.
We will automatically arrange for a ‘To Let’ board to be erected at your property for any new or reinstruction unless you instruct otherwise.
One of our experienced staff members will accompany prospective tenant(s) to view the property.
References will be obtained from applicants wishing to take up a tenancy at the property. In order for the tenant(s) to be accepted onto the guaranteed scheme they must pass the required referencing standard.
We will put in place a written inventory and condition report with supporting dated photographs. The charge for this will be £114 (£95 + Vat).
We will write to all utility companies including gas, electric, water and council tax to inform them of the change in occupancy both before and after the tenancy.
A bond will be obtained equivalent to 1 months’ rent + £100 and registered with an appropriate bond scheme.
We will charge an initial setting up fee equivalent to 48% (40% + Vat) of 1 months rent or a minimum fee of £360 (£300 + Vat) to contribute to the cost of the initial advertising, bond registration and legal documents including the latest tenancy agreement.
We will set up a tenancy agreement for the agreed period. This tenancy can either be extended on a month to month basis or, if agreed by both parties, extended by a new fixed period.
Rent will be collected each month and paid to our landlord either mid or end of each month depending on the rent payment date. Once tenant(s) are accepted onto the scheme the rent will be paid to the Landlord regardless of whether the tenant(s) pay or not.
We will carry out routine inspections between every 12 and 16 week period. You will be forwarded a communication when each report has been completed.
When a tenant(s) vacates a property, we will arrange a final inspection, checking both the condition of the property and the inventory. We will negotiate any necessary deductions from the bond. In the event of a dispute we will put forward a case on your behalf to the chosen bond scheme. The Move Out Fee for this service will be £150 (£125 plus VAT).
In the event of a maintenance issue arising the tenant(s) are informed to contact us through our latest maintenance software. Your appointed property manager will then asses the reported problem and inform you if action needs to be taken.
If, for whatever reason, the tenant(s) need to be evicted the policy put in place will take care of this procedure free of charge (as part of the service). If the tenant(s) have damaged the property and there is work to be done to the property in order that it can be re-let the policy will pay 50% of two months’ rent after vacant possession whilst the work is being done.
On being informed that a property is coming re-available we will at the earliest stage re-market the property to best ensure a new tenant(s) can be secured quickly.
If the tenant(s) have damaged the property, our insurance partner will also pay 50% of the rent for up to 3 months after eviction whilst the property is being refurbished.
If the tenant(s) have caused damage to the property which costs over and above the value of the deposit to fix, then our insurance partner will also provide the legal expenses and service to pursue the tenant(s) in court for these additional costs.
Any charges for issuing Section 21 or Section 8 Notices are included within the premium service.
