Property Management For Landlords

Legislation Complications
Many owners are unaware of the difficulties and legislation complications that are involved when managing their property. Unreasonable tenant behaviour and the responsibilities imposed on Landlords under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1988 are just two of the areas that can leave Landlords wondering what to do.

Firm But Fair
The Management Department of Ashton & Perkins consists of experienced staff specialising in maintaining properties in and around the London Borough of Havering and Essex . We can act as the main point of contact for you and your tenant throughout the duration of the tenancy. We help you by striking the right balance between being firm but fair with tenants and preventing small problems becoming a burden.

Increasing Loyalty
Tenants appreciate being able to contact us at a moments notice. Knowing there is always someone on hand to help improves their sense of security and encourages greater loyalty and increased possibility of extensions of the tenancy agreement. This helps to reduce the number of void periods which in turn increases the return generated by the property.

Reliable Contractors
Our contacts in the industry enable us to send reliable contractors to fix maintenance issues that arise. In the current climate this again relieves our landlords of unnecessary worry, expense and concern.

Liability & Safety
We are aware of ever changing government legislation, with respect to liability and safety, and the increasingly litigious times in which we live. These are very real concerns for landlords. Ongoing training keeps us up to date with new legislation and helps our clients to avoid many pitfalls.

Day To Day
Allowing us to deal with the day to day tasks such as negotiating deposit releases, paying utility bills, organising repairs, answering tenants’ queries, and arranging gas safety certificates, enables our clients to enjoy greater peace of mind knowing their property is in safe hands.
