Ever wondered what we do all day?


A typical day in the office . . . . . . .   8.40 and the kettle is on – no time for Jill to get a cup of tea as she has a valuation first thing.  

Answer phone messages collected and we are sorting out a plumber asap as someone’s washing machine is leaking!  Sophie is getting paperwork ready as we have four people signing tenancies this week & Lucy is soon busy updating our website and phoning out applicants as we have taken on a new property.  Meanwhile Kate is off to do some inspections and Jill is back out doing viewings.

Grab a quick bite for lunch and then Jill has a check-out and an inventory to compile.  Kate is meeting with freeholders & contractors at a property to try resolve an ongoing roof leak into one of our flats! A holding deposit mid afternoon always puts a smile on our faces.  Tenants come in to the office to pay rent & report repairs, the handyman is in and wants a cuppa and we all need a chocolate fix!  A trip to the bank, keys cut and some money put on a gas card, rents transferred and a deposit cheque is in the post.  More applicants registered and more viewings booked ready to start again in the morning! . . . . .
