Property management

Day-to-day care of let homes and buildings: rent collection, repairs, inspections and compliance.

Landlords who prefer not to manage tenants themselves can hand day-to-day tasks to our property management teams. We collect rent, arrange repairs with vetted contractors, carry out inspections and keep certificates in date.

What you get

  • Rent collected on time: Automated reminders and prompt payouts to owners.
  • Vetted contractors: Repairs are quoted in advance above an agreed limit.
  • Regular inspections: Photo reports after every inspection.
  • Up-to-date compliance: Gas, electrical, energy and fire certificates tracked for you.

For blocks and communities, we also provide service charge budgeting, major works planning and liaison with residents’ associations.

Common questions

Answers to the questions clients ask us most about this service.

How much is a security deposit?

It varies. In New York State the cap is one month’s rent. In England deposits are capped at five weeks’ rent for annual rents under £50,000 and must be protected in a government-approved scheme. In Germany up to three months is allowed, and in France one to two months.

What documents will a landlord ask for?

Most landlords request proof of identity, proof of income such as recent pay stubs or an employment letter, previous landlord references and a credit check. In some cities you may be asked for a guarantor if your income is below the threshold.

Can I end my lease early?

Your lease sets out the notice period and any penalty. Many leases allow early termination with one to three months’ notice and a fee. Local law may also give rights to leave early in certain cases, such as military deployment in the US or poor condition of the property.

Who pays the agent’s fee when I rent?

It depends on the city. In New York City the party that hires the broker pays under the FARE Act, which usually means the landlord. In England the Tenant Fees Act prohibits most fees charged to tenants. In Paris, fees are capped by decree and split between landlord and tenant.
