Finding the correct tenant is one of the most important parts of the entire letting process and we strive to find our clients the correct calibre matching our strict criteria based upon key factors which are credit and reference checks with 3 different bureaus, tenant affordability and work reference authentication.
Our agreement of lease is carefully designed to protect the landlord’s rights to possession, help control the tenant’s activities and ensure compliance to the terms and conditions. The agreement of lease is usually for an initial term of 12 months however shorter/longer term tenancies can be negotiated depending on individual landlord’s circumstances.
When the tenant signs the agreement we will ensure the receipt of a security deposit. The level of deposit is generally equivalent to a minimum of one month’s rental. This deposit will then be handled in an approved and protected account.
The Agency acts as a first point of contact by informing the Landlord promptly of any complaints or issues of a material or serious nature arising from or in connection with the letting of the premises, including but not limited to material breaches of the Agreement of Lease by the Tenant.
Manage the collection of rental between the tenant and landlord on the due date as stipulated in the Agreement of Lease. The rental is thereafter deposited into the Landlords account timeously.
Keep accurate and proper record in respect of finances related to the premises and retain copies of all related invoices and cost. These records will be sent as a monthly statement to the Landlord.
We have a specialised service designed to help landlords who wish to let their rental homes on a short stay basis. Our team will provide superior marketing designed to promote your property exclusively to individuals looking for short term accommodation.
We offer advice regarding current local market performance, regulations and any improvements you can easily make to achieve the highest rent possible based upon key factors such as the condition of the property, tenant demands and letting timescales.
When it comes to renting out a property a home inspection is vital to ensure that the interests of both the landlord and the tenants are protected. We document and facilitate the process of an ingoing as well as an outgoing inspection. These documents are to be completed after a thorough inspection of the property and all damages or concerns are required to be meticulously recorded. Upon completion the documents are to be signed by both the tenant and landlord and will be kept in our records.
Placing the correct tenant in your property is the first step in securing your investment. With the help of 3 different bureau’s we perform comprehensive credit report checks to ensure the property is affordable to the prospective tenant. This is accomplished by means of a salary inquiry and having visibility off all debt accounts held by the tenant using consumer payment profile checks.
The main priority for a Landlord is hassle free and timeous collection of rental on a monthly basis. We ensure these expectations are met by means of SMS communication regularly. These SMS’s are for Payment on Time, Paid Late, Paid Partly and Did Not Pay with the latter 3 scenarios being accompanied with the credit record repercussions of late/failure to pay on one’s credit score. Should SMS’s alone not suffice in the situation the first Letter of Demand free of charge will be posted, sms’ed, and emailed to the tenant.
At Achyuta Property Holdings we build long-term relationships, which allow us to provide personalised, clear and considered advice on all areas of property in all key markets. We believe taking a personal approach is crucial when interacting with our clients, as it gives us a detailed understanding of how we can connect them with the perfect property, be it residential or commercial.
Placing you at the heart of everything we do is intrinsic to our values. It’s a core principle that our training team instils in our employees. We regularly seek your feedback in person and through surveys and reviews to ensure we deliver you a consistent and dedicated service. This not only provides you with a tailored experience, but also informs how we evolve as a business.
With so many ways to promote properties, we carefully select the right channels to let yours. Our skill is knowing who and where the best tenants are and how best to find them. Matching tenants to properties is a craft and constantly tracking who is in the market is what keeps us ahead of our competitors.
We will advertise your property on all popular and commonly used mediums so potential tenants can find and view your property wherever they are and whenever they want, from a desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone. We will take great care to ensure the description thoughtfully captures the essence of your property. Clear floor plans will show its layout and professional photography displays its features at their very best.
Letting your property can be a complex, demanding process; we’re here to take the stress out of being a landlord. Our unrivalled market knowledge allows us to navigate legal and financial responsibilities while minimising costly void periods and maximising returns on investment for our landlord clients.
The first thing a tenant notices in a listing is photographs. Higher quality photographs are more effective in presenting the property in a good light and it means that prospective tenants can see exactly what is on offer.
Sometimes, a simple spring clean can make all the difference when it comes to making your property appear more desirable. It is important that you professionally clean your property between tenants but an extra clean here and there can go a long way.
Prospective tenants are likely to look closely at everything on their first viewing. Do the doors in your property squeak? Could you spend some time adjusting doorknobs to secure them? Sometimes, taking some time to do subtle improvements around the property makes all the difference.
First impressions are lasting impressions. If you want to impress a prospective tenant right away, you need to consider giving your front door a coat of paint, brush off the steps and add a few potted plants.
No two clients are the same, that’s why we tailor our service to meet your individual requirements. It’s our personal, carefully considered approach which convinces landlords every year to let their property with us. We have unique ways of working locally that give us an edge over our competitors, none of whom can offer such a wide range of property services with our low rates.
We understand all factors that contribute to a property’s rental value, not just the obvious ones like location, size and number of rooms. Our market appraisals are based on hard data and in-depth local research, and we are up to date on the ever-changing local environment, such as movements in people and businesses that will influence the rental value of your property.
