London lettings and property management magazine

Enjoy the benefits of ‘hands off’ property investment with our management package

LDG offer a complete in-house letting and management package to both investing clients and property owners who require assistance leasing their property, on a furnished or unfurnished basis. We look to secure the highest rental returns on properties for our clients.

Our efficient property management team have extensive knowledge of the London rental market and work with a wide range of external contacts to find suitable tenants for client properties.

Property Management Objectives

• Maximum rental returns and high occupancy rates
  

• Financial management of the property including rent collection
  

• Find high quality tenants with proven "track records"
  

• Upkeep and maintenance
  

• Providing first class management to tenants
  

• Keeping landlords up to date on their investments
  

We work on the principal that successful letting depends on first rate management

We know from experience that professional and high quality property management produces maximum rental returns so we ensure tenants receive a first rate service at every stage of the letting process from start to finish. This includes:

• Ensuring the tenancy is properly structured
  

• Checking the covenants in the head lease are complied with
  

• Assistance and advice regarding property taxes
  

• Making sure the property is in the best possible condition before the tenant moves in
  

• Making sure that the services are connected and that all the machinery works
  

• Being constantly available to tenants on a day-to-day basis to deal with property problems and queries

In the past we’ve found that landlords are frustrated by a lack of information about their property. In response to this problem all our clients have access to our exclusive online management system enabling them to access up to date details about the management of their property online at

A smooth running tenancy results in the property being cared for and regular income. Apart from the duties of administration, dealing with day to day tenant enquiries and any repair works, there are a number of legal obligations imposed on both landlord and agent when letting out a property. Among these are the following:

• The Gas Safety (Installation & Use) Regulations
  

• The Furniture and Furnishings (Fire)(Safety) Regulations
  

• The Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations
  

• The Smoke Detectors Act

These and other prerequisites to letting property these days are not prohibitive to letting, in themselves, but they do strengthen the argument that the appointment of professional management agents is a wise move.

Furthermore, LDG can tailor their management services to your needs, ensuring that appointing LDG as your managing agents is also a cost-effective decision.
