Our clients range from portfolio investors to first time Landlords and we can provide a service to match individual requirements from finding a tenant to full property management and rent protection.

Research shows that more and more tenants expect a professional management service. Previous bad experiences with landlords and the reassurance that a reputable agent is looking after their home means more and more tenants opt for managed properties.

At Julian Wadden Lettings we work closely with a leading specialist independent referencing company. They conduct comprehensive credit, affordability, employer checks as well as accommodation references on all our prospective tenants.
Under Section 22 of the Immigration Act 2014, from the 1 February 2016, all landlords in England must conduct Right to Rent checks for all new tenancies to determine whether any occupiers aged 18 and over have the right to live in the UK legally. As part of the referencing process, a tenant's Right to Rent in England will be verified.

At Julian Wadden Lettings we pride ourselves in keeping our clients up to date with changes in legislation, tax and helpful tips of getting the most out of your investments. If you are interested in registering for our next workshop please feel free to contact us on management@julianwadden.co.uk.

The 'condition' is our 'mission' at Julian Wadden Lettings, we prepare a detailed inventory at the commencement of the tenancy including a full schedule of condition with digital photographs of the whole property including gardens.

For that extra security and peace of mind we offer a rent protection insurance from Rent Guardian which covers rent arrears should your tenant fail to pay, repossession of the property, property damage and legal defence all in one policy.

The age old question when it comes to letting your house: to furnish or not to furnish? We find the majority of tenants prefer unfurnished properties with long term tenants opting to furnish their homes with their personal style and in turn increasing the length of tenancy. If you do wish to furnish the property fire and furnishing regulations mean the furniture must meet fire resistance requirements.

To protect your property against damage incurred during the tenancy we take a security deposit. In line with government legislation this must be registered with a tenancy deposit scheme and held accordingly. We are members of two leading deposit protection services to ensure that your requirements are met.
