Meet the Waterfords Property Management Team

Waterfords Estate Agents’ Property Management team are based in our Fleet branch. Working closely with the Lettings team across our branch network in Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire, we wanted to put faces to names for our landlords, investors and tenants.
 

About the Property Management Team

Our team of four talented Property Managers have over 25 years combined experience in lettings and property management, meaning your investment is in safe hands.

As a landlord, you have a single point of contact within the team throughout the entire lettings process. This allows complete continuity throughout each stage of the lettings and tenancy process.

We offer an in-house property management service and use local contractors. This means we know the local area and your property like the back of our hand. Our contractors act as an extra pair of eyes between inspections. They offer value, quality of service, protection through insurances and more importantly a guarantee of works.

We are ARLA qualified and ensure compliant processes throughout the whole tenancy. We are proud to offer experienced, proactive support with superior service levels. We are the top independent estate agent in the area we operate for customer service, giving you peace of mind as a landlord.


What else can the Property Management Team help with?

  • We provide a record of all communication, maintenance requests and timescales. This is incredibly important should escalation of an issue within the tenancy arise.
  • You will have access to your own Landlord Account. You will have immediate access to agreements, statements and inspections 24/7.
  • We also provide an online maintenance reporting tool for your tenants which can be accessed 24/7, as well as the ability to speak to a member of the team during working hours.
  • We offer digital signatures – and a virtual signing process
  • We give your tenants tips to look after your home. For example we provide advice on how to avoid condensation.

What do landlords and tenants think of Waterfords?

“Really professional manner and seem to care greatly about their customers. We recently had a gas leak identified - within 30 minutes, an engineer came out and the issue was rectified. We were updated throughout and treated extremely well.”

Waterfords tenant - Aaran Fraser-Hitchen, Google review April 2021

“I find the Waterfords Lettings Department very good. Any properties I have available normally get let quickly, and at a good price, Sam is particularly helpful when dealing with day to day matters, and takes the stress away from me as a landlord, which is exactly what I am looking for.”
