Search for Properties
The right tenant
We believe the key to a successful let is finding the right tenant.
We act in the landlord’s interest, ensuring applicants are vetted rigorously and contact is maintained throughout the letting period.
As such we obtain and thoroughly check: written references (employers, previous landlords and character), bank statements, wage slips, employers’ details, identification (passport or driving license).
We can also prepare full screening for any county court judgements through a credit search.
In addition, we secure an advance rental payment and a dilapidation deposit on the day of signing contracts.
Some of our landlords wish to be involved in helping to decide on the right person for their property and like to meet their tenants before they move in.
Landlords
As a landlord you need to know your property is being well-looked after – and that is where TUMC Property Management & Lettings Ltd can help.
Our flexible services can be carefully tailored to suit your precise needs, from the introduction of potential tenants to the full management and care of your property.
Property owners become landlords for all sorts of reasons from wishing to generate an income or make a long-term investment to requiring occupancy for an empty home.
Increasing numbers of us are relocating abroad or elsewhere in the country while others are entering into a second relationship where each partner has a property.
Whether you plan to return to your property one day or simply wish it to work for you on a financial level, you need to know it is being cared for to the highest standards.
Initial Services
In addition to helping you find an appropriate tenant we can visit the property to access the letting potential, discuss your requirements and provide a market valuation. Following this, we are able to:
- Offer advice on current legislation affecting landlords
- Finalise all details and obtain your instructions
- Prepare property particulars with professionally taken colour photos
- Circulate the information to our potential tenants and contacts
- Place details on our letting register and computer database
- Market your property through major portals including Rightmove, Zoopla, Primelocation and our own website
