The Checklist:

Please follow our simple checklist. If you would like to talk to us, or need us to visit your house, please just call and ask.

First Steps

The checklist below is ideally a reminder of what we need if you want to go head with letting your property after the valuation.

1. Signed Agency Agreement (yellow copy), having read both sides, with the necessary sections completed.
2. Two full sets of keys plus another two front door keys and any alarm instructions
3. Completed permissions sheet and property information form

Once steps one, two and three are completed, we can assist you with everything else whilst starting to market the property.

• Energy Performance Certificate – this must now be a minimum rating of E, so should be high on your agenda
• Landlords’ Gas Safety Certificate
• PAT – portable appliance test for furnished properties only
• Electrical installation condition report – 5 yearly – since July 2020
• Landlords’ building and/or contents insurance policy
• Consider health and safety (see H.H.S.R.S.)
• Install one smoke alarm on every floor and a carbon monoxide detector in every room, with a gas appliance or solid fuel fire (with the exception of cookers/hobs)

If we organise works before the property is let we will endeavour to take the funds from your first rental income, but reserve the right to request payment earlier for any works organised on your behalf.

We can also obtain an insurance quote please just ask.

A small charge is applicable when we organise works for “let only” and clients who usually complete their own maintenance.
