How you’ll benefit from our Fully Managed service

Whether you’ve become a landlord by accident, or you aspire to build a portfolio of buy-to-let properties, the management side of leasing your North East property can take up an enormous amount of time. At Northwood, we’re problem solvers and customer service whizzes – and managing your property is what we do best so you can get on with your day to day.

Matt, Scott, Juliet and the team of Property Managers aim to make life as a landlord much easier:

We’re industry leaders in the North East lettings market since our opening in 2009. We’re always up-to-date with the Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire market trends, supply & demand dynamics as well as legislation and legal compliance. We can advise you on rental values and optimising your property’s attractiveness to potential tenants.

We have access to local and national marketing channels ensuring your property gets all the exposure it deserves to secure a quick rental and minimise any void periods. Our commitment to national portals ensures your property is viewed by prospective tenants in other areas of Scotland, the UK and overseas.

If your property is vacant or your tenancy ends and you require a new tenant, we will step in at the earliest opportunity. We’ll screen applications, conduct background checks, verify references and carry out all viewings on your behalf.  Once a suitable tenant has been found, we’ll issue and complete all relevant paperwork.

Scottish landlords must navigate a complex web of laws & regulations that govern the rental market. Our team of experts are well-versed in these requirements so you can have full confidence that all tenancy laws, safety regulations and tenancy agreements are entirely compliant. We also manage the document execution.

Property maintenance & repairs are essential for ensuring the safety, functionality and value of rental properties. We have a 24/7 online maintenance and repair system so tenants can report repairs at anytime of day with all relevant information including photos and our team of property managers can take prompt action, obtain approval from the Landlord and organising the repair.

We have a network of trusted and reliable contractors who we use to carry out any maintenance. We also work with our clients’ own contractors if requested. Undertaking regular inspections is also key in managing your property and we ensure any maintenance identified at inspections is reported on a timely basis.

Rent collection can be a challenging and time-consuming task, with rent arrears causing significant stresses for landlords. Using our established payment systems, we work proactively to minimise late payments so you get your income on time every month.

Getting locked out, the washing machine breaking or rarely, breaches of contract, all require immediate attention and resolution. With us as your agency, you can focus on your own personal or professional commitments whilst we manage the day-to-day of your property.
