Services
Property management
Our comprehensive property management service ensures landlords' investments are protected through dedicated account management. We handle tenant communication, maintenance coordination, and regular property inspections while maintaining legal compliance. Our longstanding team provides continuity and builds trusted relationships with property owners across Bristol and surrounding areas.
Tenant screening
We conduct thorough tenant referencing through credit checks, employer verification, and previous landlord references. This rigorous process reduces risks of arrears and property damage while ensuring suitable tenant matches. Our in-house screening system provides landlords with confidence in tenancy quality and long-term stability.
Legal compliance
As ARLA Propertymark members, we ensure all tenancies meet current legal requirements including safety certificates and deposit protection. Our compliance expertise covers evolving legislation to protect landlords from potential legal issues while maintaining tenant rights throughout the rental process.
3D property tours
Using Matterport technology, we create immersive 3D property tours that increase tenant engagement and reduce unnecessary viewings. These digital walkthroughs allow prospective tenants to explore properties remotely, accelerating the letting process while maintaining property presentation standards.
Property refurbishment
Our property refurbishment service enhances rental value through strategic upgrades coordinated with trusted local contractors. We manage renovations from initial assessment to completion, focusing on improvements that attract quality tenants while maximising return on investment for property owners.

Questions
How quickly can I arrange a property viewing?
We recommend arranging viewings 3 days in advance. For occupied properties we require 24 hours notice, while vacant properties may allow same-day viewings.
What is the holding deposit amount?
The holding deposit equals one week's rent, which takes the property off the market while initiating the referencing process.
Can you help with property investment decisions in Bristol?
Yes, we provide expert advice on profitable areas and can visit potential properties to offer guidance based on our local market expertise.
What legal requirements exist for letting properties?
We ensure compliance with all current legal requirements including safety certificates and deposit protection schemes as ARLA Propertymark members.
How long does the rental process typically take?
From property valuation to tenant move-in, our efficient process typically completes within 4-6 weeks depending on marketing and referencing timelines.
