Since 2007 we have been focused on delivering to our customers. This involves our three key ingredients: expertise, hardwork and a personal touch. We have consistently delivered, with our landlords and tenants voting us the best North East agent in 2017.

We have a simple formula: EXPERTISE + HARDWORK + PERSONAL TOUCH = HAPPY CUSTOMERS

Expertise – We own over 150 properties as well as managing over 700. We know how to let property profitably since we’ve been doing it for over 10 years.

Hardwork – You get out of life what you put in. We work hard for our customers and as such 74% of our new clients are from personal recommendation.

Personal Touch – We’re dedicated to providing a top class experience to our landlords & tenants. Our staff are ARLA qualified and we’d love to show you our service.

Happy Customers – If you’re happy we’re happy. We’re an award winning agent so phone us today and find out what our customers say.

We are absolutely desperate to impress you and so here are some of the things we can do for you:

• We feature properties on Rightmove – so they appear at the top of any listings, meaning your property will be seen first, does your current agent do this?
• All our vetting is in-house and as thorough as possible to ensure we deal with the right tenants.
• We have a dedicated maintenance team with a 24/7 hotline to deal with any emergency issues.
• A rent team with the ability to take direct debits and recurring card payments – we’re informed the same day a payment is missed.
• Our boots on the ground portfolio managers to perform any inspections, rent or maintenance visits.
• Gold and Platinum Rental Guarantees so landlords are paid all year round.
• Housing benefit experts – we obtain direct payments and also help tenants with the myriad of forms.
• In-house refurbishment department to turn properties around at the right price.

If you’re interested - let us make you our next “Happy Customer!”

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Complaints Procedure

Complaints procedure

We always try to get things right first time but appreciate that this doesn`t always happen. As a first step it is often best to contact the person who dealt with the enquiry. They will know most about the matter and it maybe possible to sort out the problem straight away. If you are not satisfied with our first response please contact our operations manager Annelise Inglis via email [email protected]

If you find this matter has still not been resolved, please contact the Managing Director Chris Fitzakerley via email [email protected]
