Frequently asked questions

Letting a home isn’t just about bricks and mortar – it’s about protecting your investment and securing the right tenants. Our agents understand the local market inside out, from rental demand and pricing trends to the areas tenants want most, helping you maximise returns with confidence.

We combine local expertise with real market data, giving you honest advice on achievable rental values, tenant demand, and property management. From marketing your property to managing the tenancy, we help you get the most from your property while keeping the process straightforward and stress-free.

Based in Henley-on-Thames, we let and manage properties in South Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and beyond

We offer the following service levels, but can also tailor a solution to best suit your requirements:

 

Tenant-Find Only: Marketing your property, conducting viewings, referencing tenants, and arranging move-in paperwork.


Rent Collection: Includes tenant-find plus monthly rent collection and arrears chasing.


Fully Managed: A comprehensive service covering marketing, tenant management, inspections, maintenance coordination, legal compliance, and ongoing support.

 

Our transparent pricing means no hidden charges, so you know exactly what to expect.

For many landlords, a professional letting agent saves time, reduces legal risk, and helps maximise rental income. We handle:

 

  • Accurate property valuations
  • Professional marketing
  • Tenant referencing
  • Tenancy agreements
  • Deposit protection
  • Rent collection
  • Property inspections
  • Maintenance management

Using an experienced agent can be especially valuable if you’re a first-time landlord, overseas landlord, or managing multiple properties.

Rental value depends on factors such as:

  • Location
  • Property size and condition
  • Furnished or unfurnished status
  • Local demand
  • Comparable rental properties

We provide free rental valuations based on current market trends, helping you achieve the best balance between rental yield and tenant demand.

Landlords are legally responsible for ensuring their property meets current safety standards. Common requirements include:

 

  • Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
  • Gas Safety Certificate (if applicable)
  • Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
  • Smoke alarms on each floor
  • Carbon monoxide alarms where required

We can help arrange all necessary certifications to keep your property compliant.

Standard home insurance is usually not enough for rental properties. Landlord insurance can help protect against:

 

  • Building damage
  • Contents damage (if furnished)
  • Loss of rent
  • Public liability claims
  • Legal expenses

Choosing the right policy can provide peace of mind and financial protection.

Finding reliable tenants is one of the most important parts of successful letting. Our tenant referencing process typically includes:

 

  • Credit checks
  • Employment verification
  • Income affordability checks
  • Previous landlord references
  • Right to Rent checks

This helps reduce risk and improves the likelihood of long-term, successful tenancies.

Late or missed rent payments can be stressful, but professional rent management helps minimise disruption. We actively monitor payments, contact tenants promptly, and manage arrears procedures. We can also advise on rent guarantee insurance for additional security.

By law, tenant deposits in England must be protected in a government-approved tenancy deposit scheme. This safeguards both landlord and tenant and ensures compliance with legal obligations.

We manage deposit registration and prescribed information on your behalf.

We coordinate repairs quickly and efficiently using trusted contractors. Depending on your instructions, we can:

 

  • Manage emergency repairs immediately
  • Obtain quotes for and arrange non-urgent work
  • Keep you updated on costs
  • Conduct regular inspections to catch issues early

Proactive maintenance protects your investment and helps retain quality tenants.

Rent increases must follow legal guidelines and tenancy agreement terms. This may involve:

 

  • Formal notice procedures
  • Market-based rent reviews

We help landlords set competitive, fair rent adjustments while remaining compliant.

Transparent Process

We make letting your property simple and stress-free. From marketing your property and arranging viewings to securing reliable tenants, negotiating terms and managing the property throughout the tenancy. We’ll guide you clearly through every stage.

Our agents handle the details, and keep communication open, so you always know what’s happening and what comes next. No jargon, no confusion — just honest, professional support.
