Every property and landlord is different. We therefore offer a flexible service shaped around your requirements.
Our letting service is designed for landlords who wish to manage the tenancy themselves after a suitable tenant has moved in.
This can include:
Our managed service gives landlords ongoing support throughout the tenancy.
In addition to marketing and finding a tenant, this can include:
Hawksgrove Estates also offers building and maintenance support, giving landlords access to practical assistance when work is required.
Before your property is marketed, it is important to make sure it is safe, well presented and ready for occupation.
You may need to:
We will explain the relevant requirements and help you arrange the necessary checks before a tenant moves in.
Successful letting begins with careful marketing and tenant selection.
We will provide a considered rental valuation based on the property’s location, condition, size, presentation and current market demand. Your property will then be promoted using high-quality details and appropriate online marketing.
We arrange viewings, provide feedback and discuss every offer with you. Prospective tenants are subject to the appropriate identity, affordability, reference and Right to Rent checks before a tenancy is agreed.
While no referencing process can remove every risk, careful checks help landlords make a properly informed decision.
Since 1 May 2026, most private tenancies in England operate as assured periodic tenancies rather than fixed-term assured shorthold tenancies.
An assured periodic tenancy continues on a rolling basis until it is ended correctly by the tenant, by mutual agreement or by the landlord using an applicable legal ground for possession.
Hawksgrove Estates will help ensure that the appropriate tenancy documentation and prescribed information are prepared for your property. Specialist legal advice should be obtained where a company tenancy, common-law arrangement or another non-standard agreement is required.
Where a tenancy deposit is taken, it must normally be protected in a government-approved tenancy deposit scheme within the required timeframe. The tenant must also receive the relevant prescribed information.
The maximum deposit is generally:
A detailed, independently prepared inventory and schedule of condition is strongly recommended. It provides important evidence of the property’s condition at the beginning and end of the tenancy and can be invaluable if a deposit dispute arises.
Landlords are responsible for providing a property that is safe and free from serious hazards.
Depending on the property, the requirements may include:
Safety requirements can change, so landlords should seek current professional advice rather than relying on old tenancy documents or guidance.
A well-maintained property is more attractive to tenants, supports longer tenancies and helps protect its value.
Landlords remain responsible for many repairs, including the structure and exterior of the property and its key heating, water, electrical and sanitation installations.
Our property-management and maintenance services can help landlords respond promptly when repairs are reported. Where contractor work is required, we can obtain approval and coordinate access, subject to the terms of your management agreement.
If you normally live outside the UK, the Non-Resident Landlord Scheme may apply to your rental income.
Unless HMRC has authorised gross payment, a letting agent—or in some cases the tenant—may be required to deduct basic-rate tax before passing rent to an overseas landlord.
We recommend obtaining advice from a qualified accountant or tax adviser about your individual circumstances.
Our charges depend on the service you select and the requirements of your property.
We believe in transparent pricing and will explain all applicable commission, administration and third-party costs before you instruct us. Please contact our team for the current landlord fee schedule and a personalised quotation.
