Tailored Lettings Packages

We recognise that every landlord has unique needs, which is why we offer a range of lettings packages to suit different requirements. From simple tenant-finding services to comprehensive property management solutions, our packages are designed to provide flexibility and peace of mind.

  1. Tenant Find Only: This service is ideal for landlords who wish to manage the day-to-day running of their property but need assistance finding and vetting tenants. We will market your property, conduct viewings and carry out thorough reference checks to ensure we find the right tenant for you.
  2. Rent Collection: For landlords who prefer to handle property maintenance but want help with financial management, our rent collection service is the perfect solution. We will collect the rent on your behalf, ensuring timely payments and dealing with any arrears that may arise.
  3. Fully Managed Service: Our comprehensive lettings package, the Fully Managed Service, is designed for landlords who want complete peace of mind. We take care of everything, from marketing your property and managing tenant enquiries to handling repairs and inspections. This package ensures your property is in safe hands, allowing you to enjoy the benefits of rental income without the hassle.

Guaranteed Rent Service

At Northwood Taunton, we offer a unique Guaranteed Rent Service that sets us apart from other letting agents. This service is designed to provide landlords with a secure and reliable income, regardless of whether the property is occupied or if the tenant fails to pay.

  • Consistent Monthly Income: With our Guaranteed Rent Service, you receive a fixed rental income every month, even if the property is vacant or the tenant defaults on their payments. This removes the uncertainty often associated with renting out property, allowing you to budget with confidence.
  • No Fees or Commission: There are no management fees or hidden charges with our Guaranteed Rent Service. You receive the agreed-upon rent amount in full, with no deductions, providing complete transparency and peace of mind.
  • Property Management Included: The Guaranteed Rent Service includes our full property management package. We handle everything from tenant finding and vetting to maintenance and inspections, ensuring your property is well-cared-for without any extra effort on your part.

Comprehensive Marketing Strategy

A crucial part of our lettings service is ensuring that your property reaches the widest possible audience. At Northwood Taunton, we use a comprehensive marketing strategy that includes both online and offline channels.

  • Professional Photography and Listings: We understand the importance of first impressions, which is why we use professional standard photography to showcase your property. High-quality images, combined with detailed descriptions, a 360 virtual tour as standard and virtual staging where required all help to attract prospective tenants.
  • Online Advertising: Your property will be advertised on major property portals such as Rightmove, and our own Northwood website. These platforms ensure maximum exposure to potential tenants both locally and nationally.
  • Local Marketing: In addition to online advertising, we also utilise traditional marketing methods, such as window displays in our Taunton office and local  social media advertising, to reach tenants within the community.

Thorough Tenant Vetting Process

Finding the right tenant is crucial to the success of your lettings experience. Our thorough tenant vetting process is designed to provide you with confidence and security.

  • Credit Checks and References: We conduct comprehensive credit checks and obtain references from previous landlords and employers to ensure that prospective tenants are financially stable and have a positive rental history.
  • Right to Rent Checks: In compliance with UK legislation, we carry out Right to Rent checks to verify the tenant’s legal right to rent property in the UK.

Ongoing Property Management

Our commitment to you doesn’t end once a tenant has moved in. With our Fully Managed Services, we take on the responsibility of managing your property throughout the tenancy.

  • Regular Inspections: We conduct regular inspections to ensure that your property is being well-maintained and to address any issues that may arise.
  • Maintenance and Repairs: Our team coordinates and oversees all maintenance and repair work, using trusted local contractors to ensure the work is completed to a high standard. Unlike some of our competitors, we do not make additional charges for this
  • Tenancy Renewals and End-of-Tenancy Services: We handle tenancy renewals, ensuring that your property remains let with minimal void periods. When the tenancy comes to an end, we manage the check-out process, including deposit negotiations and any necessary repairs.
  • Annual rent review: Can we add something here to say we keep across the rental price & review it annually

If you are currently with another letting agent and are considering switching to Northwood Taunton, we make the process as smooth and straightforward as possible. Our Switching Service is designed to minimise disruption to both you and your tenants.

  • Easy Transfer Process: We manage the entire transfer process for you, liaising with your current letting agent to ensure all documentation and information is correctly passed over. This means you can enjoy a seamless transition without the stress of managing the changeover yourself.
  • Review of Existing Tenancy Agreements: Our team will review your existing tenancy agreements to ensure they comply with current legislation and protect your interests. If necessary, we will advise on updates or changes that may benefit you and your tenants.

Customer Review

Hannah, Divine, Matt and the rest of the team were fantastic. Within an hour of me asking for a rental valuation on a generic site, they had come round to value the flat. They gave really good feedback on prospective tenants, and I had excellent tenants move in within 3 weeks. Couldn’t recommend them more!
