The property market in Chelmsford became highly competitive nowadays. With a number of compliance requirements, increased demands of tenants, and all landlords competing for the same quality tenants, managing properties in Chelmsford requires skills you may need to develop as a landlord. This is the exact reason why our clients choose to switch their property management company from other firms to ours. For instance, they were not getting enough tenants due to ineffective advertising of their properties. Also, they were having trouble organising the maintenance of the properties, as they were not getting proper communication regarding that. Some of them did not receive monthly financial reports at all, while others had some compliance requirements overlooked. As a matter of fact, professional property management in Chelmsford works to its owner's advantage, as it provides a number of benefits. Namely, shorter periods when your property will be left without tenants will lead to increased income, proper maintenance and, thus, fewer expenses on emergencies, reduced turnover rate, and complete compliance. Successful landlords do not cut costs on property management but invest in it instead.
Our partners and colleagues are proudly accredited by relevant industry bodies. This provides reassurance to our clients that we are committed to providing a consistent and high level of service.
Instead of finding anyone who will be willing to live in your property, we find the right tenant – one who will respect the property and pay their rent regularly. We ensure that each tenant has full employment, previous landlord references, passes credit check, and, finally, right to rent check. Our vetting procedure is rather complicated because just one wrong tenant may ruin six months of profit you have made.
Being located in a convenient area for professionals and close to the train station, Chelmsford attracts three main categories of tenants: professionals commuting to London, young families and students of Anglia Ruskin University. Therefore, you have to know which properties attract which tenants and market your property accordingly. You will receive detailed recommendations regarding listing your property online, pricing it adequately and promoting it properly, which will guarantee quick occupancy and filling up empty properties with good tenants.
Once a problem arises, we attend to it quickly. By cooperating with various contractors located close to you for several years now, we can easily manage any situation regarding electrical and plumbing work, as well as problems with boilers.
Apart from modern flats in the vicinity of the railway station, the central Chelmsford includes quite old Victorian and Edwardian houses. Each of them requires peculiar maintenance. In addition, modern developments in Chelmsford have another peculiarity, that is, they require warranty claims.
Not only do we handle reactive maintenance, but also we take care of preventive one, organising regular inspections and scheduling planned maintenance.
We will provide you with accurate monthly financial reports with detailed accountings of what was earned from your properties and what money went for expenses. All of it will help you to calculate the yield on your investments.
In case you own a number of properties, we will also prepare a portfolio-level report with details on the profitability of each of your properties. It will definitely be useful when you will make decisions about holding, selling or investing in them.
Failure to obtain gas safety certificate will prevent you from issuing section 21 notices. In turn, failing to protect tenants' deposit may result in heavy fines for you equal to three times the sum of the deposit. Not conducting right to rent checks results in imposing of civil penalties up to £3,000 per tenant. Therefore, if you do not comply with the requirements, your landlord activities may be put into question.
We will relieve you of all compliance related worries, including renewal of gas safety certificate, coordination of electrical inspections, obtaining of energy performance certificates, deposit protection, conducting right to rent checks, and selective licensing of your property.
As you can see, regulations are changing and becoming stricter, which makes landlords feel uncomfortable with them. Thus, leave everything related to compliance to us, and we will do everything as required.
Managing commercial properties in Chelmsford differs significantly from managing private ones because leases tend to last for a longer period of time, and terms tend to be more complicated, whereas the tenants often have more requirements and special demands. As far as the maintenance of commercial properties is concerned, there are also other nuances.
Our company will manage all of your commercial properties in Chelmsford located in the centre of the town and in business parks nearby or even in industrial units in such districts of Chelmsford as Springfield.
Finding suitable tenants for your commercial properties, negotiating the lease terms and organising maintenance of commercial properties, including service charge management, our specialists will do everything possible to get your properties occupied and make sure that everything is done properly.
Although during last few years commercial sector experienced numerous ups and downs, due to the stable economic situation in Chelmsford and good connections with London, the demand for commercial properties remains high. Just follow the market conditions, present your properties professionally and do everything possible to maintain them.
Each week your properties stand without tenants means loss of potential revenue. Each problem that is neglected will only get worse and will result in increased costs for you. Each regulation you ignore will cause some penalties or worse, and it can harm your reputation as a professional landlord.
Professional management of your properties in Chelmsford will only bring you more money and peace of mind. Shorter void period, better relations with tenants, lower maintenance costs, proper compliance and much less worries are only some advantages you can receive.
We understand that each landlord has individual needs and wants to manage his or her properties differently. This is why you should have an open discussion about our services to decide whether we will be able to satisfy all of your requests. Our team will visit your properties and estimate the costs you will have to pay if we start managing them. We can meet you at your convenience. Our colleagues and partners are accredited by ARMA and RICS. Our company is the best choice among numerous unlicensed agencies in the UK.
