I have just let a house for the first time. I have found Leaders extremely professional and helpful, I always get replies to my queries very quickly and they found me a tenant within one day of advertising my property. I am very happy with the service I have received so far. Thank you
I have been a Landlord with Leaders on a fully managed basis for 2 years now and they make it all so easy for me. I am always kept in the loop and am at ease knowing my property is being taken of in the capable hands of Leaders. Recommended some of my friends as both landlords and tenants who are equally as pleased as I am. Thank you all :)
Quick, easy and efficient. Leaders sourced me a tenant within a few days of marketing whereas my previous agents failed to return my calls. I would recommend Leaders to any new landlords
10 simple steps to letting your property
Choose an experienced local letting agent to give you an accurate rental valuation. It’s important to ensure the price is right to attract the right tenants.
Review the service options available, and consider how involved you want to be with your tenant and/or property. Having to juggle maintenance issues, collect the monthly rent collection and deal with other responsibilities may not suit your current lifestyle.
Finding the right tenant (one in the best position for you) can be time consuming and costly. Being a Leaders’ landlord will give you high profile advertising and access to a large tenant database.
Keeping your property as clean and clutter-free as possible will be more attractive to prospective tenants. An experienced team member will accompany all prospective tenants on viewings arranged by Leaders.
Your letting agent will handle all negotiations between you and prospective tenants. Leaders strives to get you the best rental price, length of contract and tenants.
Running credit checks on prospective tenants ensures your property will be secure. Leaders uses strict referencing procedures carried out by independent experts.
This document outlines the agreed responsibilities of both you and your tenant. It is important that both tenants and landlords take the time to read this carefully before signing.
An Inventory is a detailed list that itemises the contents and condition of the property at the time of the tenant moving in. It must be agreed and signed by both the tenant and landlord – which is why Leaders uses an independent Inventory Service to minimise the risk of disputes.
Once your tenant has paid the deposit in full, they have secured the property. Their deposit will be held independently against possible damage to the property, which will be checked against the Inventory at the end of their tenancy.
It’s important to build a good relationship with your tenants; small gestures such as supplying user manuals for appliances will really help. Need some landlord advice? Contact us and we'll be happy to help.
Let your property with our No Deposit Option
-
Tenants who consider their credit scores – By opting for the No Deposit Option, your tenants rental payments contribute to their Experian credit score (usually rent does not). This gives you added peace of mind that your tenants are financially careful and have even more incentive not to default on payments.
-
More demand from tenants who want deposit free renting – The No Deposit Option not only benefit tenants financially, but also gives landlords a new marketing tool, creating a buzz around your property that other agents can’t match.

Minimal void periods – With higher tenant demand comes a faster process and a potential reduction in void periods.
