Newport Property Management


We believe that you should be able to enjoy the benefits of being a landlord, without taking on any extra work or stress. The rental market is performing strongly in Newport and surrounding areas, and there’s plenty of opportunity to generate an excellent rental yield for landlords.

Our property management services in Newport are entirely bespoke and tailored to your personal requirements. We cover a wide area, so whether your property is in South East Wales or Newport itself, we can help manage it to its full potential. All our services operate on a ‘no let, no fee’ basis. That means, if in the unlikely situation we can’t find you a suitable tenant, you won’t pay us a penny.

What level of property management do you need?

The first step is to arrange a meeting with one of our rental experts, either in person or over the phone, to discuss your requirements. We’ll carry out a free valuation to give you an idea how much rent your property could achieve, then, we’ll put together a tailored management plan for you to consider, with a break-down of the fees involved.

Our services include the following:

Finding new tenants:

  • Free property appraisal
  • Comprehensive marketing
  • Accompanied viewings for pre-screened applicants
  • In depth tenancy referencing, which includes land registry checks where appropriate
  • Tenant social media checks

Paperwork and legalities:

  • Preparing an ARLA approved tenancy agreement
  • Preparing a detailed photo and written inventory
  • Serving all mandated documents to the tenants at the start of the tenancy
  • Obtaining necessary signatures from tenants
  • Placing the tenant’s deposit in a government-backed deposit protection service, in accordance with the law
  • Taking meter readings when the tenant moves in, and delivering the readings to the utility suppliers
  • Providing the council tax department with your tenant’s details

Tenant management:

  • Checking the tenant into the property
  • Collecting rent each month on your behalf
  • Chasing late rental payments, if necessary
  • Being the first point of contact for tenants, if any issues arise
  • Dealing with maintenance issues
  • Assuring compliance with Government legislation
  • Carrying out thorough, regular property inspections, to ensure there are no issues that you should be aware of
  • Service of notices (when appropriate)

End of tenancy services:

  • Arranging for a tenancy extension (if required)
  • Ending the tenancy once the contract term is complete
  • Checking the tenant out of the property once the tenancy has ended
  • Negotiating deposit-return (e.g. if any money needs to be withheld to cover accidental damage etc.)
  • Arranging any end of tenancy repairs

Landlord assistance

  • Providing unlimited advice and support
  • Producing a draft Self Assessment form at the end of the tax year

We also offer temporary property management services (for example, if you’re looking for someone to manage things while you’re on holiday), and a key-holder service (if you manage the property yourself but live far away, and want someone to provide access from time to time).
