The perfect one-stop shop for landlords

By letting your property with Chalk Street, as a landlord you can rest assured your tenants and property are well cared for.

For starters we’ll advise on all compliance requirements for your rental property, ensuring everything is covered. Our technology brings speed and efficiency to the process meaning quicker occupancy, quicker payments and complete transparency through an owner app.

We also offer a range of options meaning you can be as hands-on or hands-off as you wish. You may want to stay involved with the rental, or we can handle it all for you – relieving you of the burden of day-to-day management – so you can be safe in knowledge that everything is running smoothly in the background.

How we do it

Lettings PC

Slick, streamlined, online

Pre-tenancy, our technology ensures a smooth process for tenants to complete digital checks for ID, credit, residency, right to rent, and income. Our easy-to-use client interface keeps a full electronic audit trail of all items such as Tenancy agreements, referencing, IDs, EPC, Gas Safety, Electrical certification, Deposit scheme, right to rent checks, inventory reports, inspection reports and more.

So unlike dealing with paperwork which can take weeks, our online processes mean we can get tenants into properties much quicker – perfect for them and for the landlord.

And once the property is rented, both the tenant and landlord get an app which allows them to view and manage the rental, whether it’s electronic storage of documents, reporting any issues, to making and dealing with payments.

Lettings Camera

The very best marketing

This includes professional photography and floorplans as standard, backed by our innovative online promotion through property portals, our website, and social media channels. Through giving your property the maximum exposure, this creates more interest which in turn allows you to select the right tennant.

 

Lettings Money

Same day payments

Unlike many agents who have to manually reconcile incoming payments and organise outgoing payments to landlords and contractors, our automated property management system makes payments on that very day. This is great for tenants as they can easily manage their payments and keep a full record of transactions in one place. And for landlords, they receive payments faster and more securely, plus get real-time visibility of their property portfolio from a mobile app.

Lettings Stars

We don’t cut corners

Some estate agents cut corners (basically, costs) when it comes to rental properties, for example no floor plans, the agent taking the property photos – often with their phone – or not even taking photos at all. This lack of effort means that property doesn’t get the spotlight it deserves.

At Chalk Street, it doesn’t matter if a property is for sale or for rent, we give it the same level of focus with floor plans and professional photography as standard, high quality marketing and of course our award-winning customer service.
