We specialise in lettings only. We find tenants and manage rental homes across St Albans and the surrounding area, with 70 years’ combined experience, three dedicated managers and one point of contact.
Fully Managed: we find the tenant and look after everything afterwards. Let Only: we find and reference the tenant, then you take over.
Set-up and marketing is charged on top, and every fee is published here. Thinking of instructing us? Everything is set out in writing before you sign: get our Terms of Business.
A free, no-obligation valuation grounded in live local lettings data — not a flattering guess. We price to let fast and protect your yield.
Free presentation advice, then exposure on Rightmove with professional signage and accompanied viewings.
Credit checks, sanctions checks, right-to-rent verification, affordability assessment, landlord and employer references. The boring work that prevents expensive tenancies.
Tenancy agreement signed, detailed inventory recorded, deposit protected within the legal window, utilities and suppliers handed over.
Rent collected, inspections reported in writing, maintenance coordinated with insured contractors — and re-letting begun before a void ever opens.
Legislation changes faster than most landlords can read it. We track it so a missed certificate never costs you a tenancy, or a fine.
Annual CP12 checks by Gas Safe engineers, scheduled before they lapse.
EICR reports renewed on cycle, with remedial work coordinated for you.
Furnishings and escape-route regulations checked at every inventory.
Fitted, tested and logged at the start of every single tenancy.
Valid Energy Performance Certificates managed ahead of marketing.
Deposits registered with a government scheme inside the legal deadline.
Multiple-occupancy rules navigated, licences obtained where required.
Non-resident landlord tax scheme handled correctly from day one.
Since 1 May 2026, tenancies in England run month to month rather than for a fixed term, and tenants can end theirs by giving at least two months’ written notice. It means good referencing, a well-kept home and a responsive agent matter more than ever, because a tenant who’s happy has every reason to stay.
Rent increases and possession now need the right notices, and we can handle those for you. Under Fully Managed, Section 8 notices are included. Our fees page shows what they cost under each service.
St Albans City and District Council says it operates only mandatory HMO licensing, which applies to buildings occupied by five or more people. All the areas we cover fall under this council.
These are the latest official figures. They’re averages across all private tenancies, including existing ones, so they won’t match asking prices on Rightmove.
