Residential Lettings
Landlord Services
The buy-to-let market remains very strong in this area. The excellent access to the M11 and M25 means London, Cambridge and the Midlands are within an easy commute. Similarly, there are excellent mainline rail links from Audley End, Bishop’s Stortford and Stansted and, of course, the proximity to Stansted Airport with its increasing number of European destinations means there is always a strong demand for rental property.
Over the years, we have developed strong relationships with many large employers in this area and enjoy a constant stream of tenant referrals. Stansted Airport also provides a large number of professional people looking for good quality rental properties.
Our services to landlords include:
Expert advice on all aspects of residential lettings

For a confidential discussion of your plans, call Tim Trembath or Melissa Johnson on 01371 872117 or Joan Bull on 01279 653067.
Rental Valuations
We look after the interests of hundreds of landlords in this area. Our valuations are based on rents achieved for similar property, taking full account of current market conditions and tenant requirements, and we are always happy to support our valuations with comparable evidence.
Extensive local advertising
We take space in the Herts and Essex Observer, the Saffron Walden Weekly News, the Dunmow Broadcast and Braintree and Witham Times on a weekly basis giving regular high profile coverage for your property. We also advertise in the Stansted Life which is distributed extensively within the airport.
Website
All our properties are featured on our website which is updated constantly. And with over 7,000 visits to our residential lettings search page monthly, you can be assured that your property receives maximum exposure. Full property details can be viewed and printed, with an electronic link to us for any visitors that wish to view a property. Our properties are also featured on Primelocation, one of the leading national property websites. Both sites are fully optimised with the leading search engines and, as such, achieve top positions for the most popular search phrases.
Accompanied viewings
We always accompany potential tenants on a viewing so that you don’t have to. We appreciate that our landlords are busy people and we are happy to make ourselves available seven days a week to ensure that your property is seen by as many people as possible.
Application for references
Before we draw up a Tenancy Agreement, we take up tenant references. These are carried out by an independent referencing company to include credit check, employer reference, bank reference and character reference. This is all taken care of for you to save you time.
Arrangement of inventories and preparation of Tenancy Agreements
We employ specialist companies to provide detailed inventories and draw up Tenancy Agreements to ensure your, and your tenants, protection.
Deposit holding and rent receipts
Tenant deposits are held in a holding account until they are released at the end of a tenancy. We ensure collection of monthly rent and this will be paid into your account on the due date.
Negotiation of renewals
Should you and your tenant agree to continue a tenancy after the current tenancy expires, we will re-assess rental value and re-negotiate the terms of the tenancy on your behalf.
Full Property Management and Tenant Introduction Services
Our extensive management service will ensure that your property is continually monitored via regular inspections and maintained to a high standard. We employ only quality contractors and arrange annual gas safety certificates and electrical appliance testing as required. Regular attendance of training courses ensures that we are fully conversant with the latest legislation relating to Lettings and we take care of all communication with tenants and utility companies offering you hassle-free property letting.
