Services

From the moment you choose Pads as your letting agent, you can relax, knowing your property is in the hands of the experts. After that, it’s up to you to decide just how much you would like us to take care of for you. From the free, accurate valuation of your property to our comprehensive management service, we can take care of every detail required to let and look after your property. This includes an emergency phone line for tenants, handling all administrative issues including your legal obligations as a landlord, producing rental contracts and an inventory, and arranging annual inspections of the property to put your mind at rest and keep you up to date with any necessary repairs before further problems arise.

New Landlord

We welcome all new landlords who would like to discuss their property in greater detail with the experts at Pads. Landlords can call into or ring our office, or register their property online at any time so we can call you back at your convenience to answer any questions you might have or arrange a free, accurate and no-obligation valuation.

Rental Guarantee

We appreciate that in today’s market many landlords like to have some guarantee that their property will bring in a consistent income they can rely on. To help with this, Pads can offer a rental guarantee service. Once landlords have agreed to let Pads look after their property for a stated length of time, we will ensure they receive their rental whatever happens, whether the property is let or empty.

Let Only

At Pads, we appreciate that some landlords wish to manage their property themselves. That’s why we also offer a let only service, taking care of everything up to the moment the tenant has collected their keys. This includes a free, accurate valuation, finding a tenant, all the administration relating to letting the property, completing an inventory before the tenant moves in and taking care of any concerns they may have before moving in.

Full Management

Our full management service is increasingly popular as many tenants now prefer to let a managed property. This is particularly useful if you feel your based too far away from Leeds and you do not have the time to deal with tenants’ telephone calls at any given time, and the problems or work that may result from them. Appointing Pads as your managing agent means you do not have to act as a full-time landlord as we will take over all the responsibilities of running your property, including dealing with any issues a tenant may have, offering an emergency telephone line, arranging repairs and maintenance, handling the transfer of utilities and taking charge of the check out process at the end of a tenancy.

Marketing

While we increasingly find most of our tenants come to us via our own website or by calling into our well appointed office, we will also ensure your property will be extensively and appropriately marketed to find a suitable tenant, be they a professional or student. Consequently, we utilise a wide range of media to promote your house or flat, including key property titles and local press.

Tradesmen

Our extensive experience in the property market means we have established long and successful relationships with every type of tradesman and supplier and can call on these to attend to and solve any problem that may arise while your property is let. We vet all our tradesmen on an ongoing basis to ensure we always get the very best work, at a competitive price, for our clients.
