FAQS
How do I let my property with Critchlow Estate Agents Ltd?
It starts with a conversation. We’ll arrange a no-obligation consultation to understand your goals, assess your property’s rental potential, and explain how our process works. From there, we’ll handle everything marketing, viewings, tenant referencing, compliance, and ongoing management, if you choose. Whether you’re letting for the first time or have a portfolio, we’ll tailor our approach to suit you.
We offer two core services:
Let Only: We market the property, find and reference tenants, and handle the initial tenancy setup.
Fully Managed: Everything from tenant sourcing to rent collection, compliance, property inspections, maintenance coordination, and renewal negotiations — all handled by us.
With either option, you benefit from premium marketing, local expertise, and clear communication from a single point of contact.
How do you market my property and attract quality tenants?
We go far beyond the basics. Every listing benefits from:
- HDR photography
- Presenter-led and cinematic video tours
- Drone and twilight shots (where suitable)
- Social media promotion across Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and TikTok
- Listings on Rightmove, Zoopla and our own website
- Targeted advertising to match the ideal tenant demographic
- Our goal is to elevate your home above the noise, generate the best enquiries, and reduce void periods.
How do you screen tenants?
We conduct thorough referencing using a trusted third-party platform. This includes:
- Employment and income verification
- Affordability checks
- Credit checks
- Previous landlord references
- Right to Rent checks (legally required)
- Our rigorous process ensures reliable tenants and peace of mind for you.
- What compliance and legal responsibilities will I have as a landlord?
- As a landlord, you’re required to:
- Provide an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
- Install and test smoke and CO alarms
- Carry out gas safety and electrical checks
- Protect tenant deposits in a government-backed scheme
- Ensure the property is free from hazards and safe to occupy
- Provide a How to Rent guide at the start of the tenancy
We’ll help you navigate each step and keep you up to date with the latest regulations.
How are rent payments and deposits handled?
We’ll collect the deposit and lodge it securely with a government-approved protection scheme. Rent is paid directly to you (or collected and transferred if under full management). You’ll receive clear statements, and in the event of late payment, our team will handle the follow-up professionally.
Our fees are clear, competitive, and reflect the value of the service we provide. Whether you choose Let Only or Full Management, we’ll send you a transparent breakdown during your initial consultation — no hidden costs, no surprises.
