Property Management
An increasing amount of tenants are now insisting on properties they rent having our management service. With the Cabot Gray Property Management service you, as landlord, have a dedicated property manager responsible for your property. The Manager deals with the sometimes lengthy and frequent calls from tenants and the resulting works. This saves you time and hassle especially as some of these calls can be in the middle of the night or while you are away on holiday.
Benefits of our Property Management Service include:
* Single point of contact at Cabot Gray
* Arrangement of all repair and maintenance issues at your property
* Preparation of the property prior to letting, which could include:
- Gas Safety check
- Electrical check
- Inventory
- Professional cleaning

Despite every care with the selection of a tenant and the management of your property, the unexpected can still happen. Tenants may become unable to pay the rent due to redundancy, accident, sickness, separation, divorce or even death. At Cabot Gray we offer a complimentary rental guarantee and legal expenses* to our fully Managed clients for the first term of their initial let with us. The advantage of this cover is that legal experts can be brought in at the onset of a problem. This means that matters can be resolved quickly; if necessary, the property can be swiftly re-let and in the meantime, you will have had the benefit of free legal advice, legal action and rental guarantee.
Our Management service is also available to Landlords who have found Tenants themselves but don’t want to deal with the day to day running of their property.
