WELCOME TO C & V LETTINGS
We are a local independent firm specialising in Residential Lettings and Property Management. Our knowledge of the local property market, combined with experienced and friendly staff, enables us to offer an enviable service to all.
As specialists we are fully focused on the priorities and needs of Landlords and Tenants, and unlike estate agents, our loyalties are not divided by dealing with property sales and mortgages. We know how to manage property for optimum performance, whilst ensuring smooth running tenancies, and compliance with the various landlord/tenant laws.
We pride ourselves in offering a personal and friendly service, whilst at the same time maintaining a high standard of competence and professionalism.

Disadvantages and our remedy
- Letting agents come at a price. Typically, they charge between
5% and 15% of the rental income. The more you require them to do, the
more they'll charge,(we supply list of charges)
- Generally, if you use a letting agent you won't have any direct contact with your tenants,(we supply you with your tenant/s details)
- If there are any problems, using a letting agent will result in extra administration and paperwork.(quotation for any additional work will be supplied)
- As a landlord you will probably still have to pay for repair
costs and if the letting agents have arranged the repair work on your
behalf you are likely to be charged an arranging fee.(we do not charge arrangement fees)
Questions to ask letting agents

The Association of Residential Letting Agents, The National Association
