Why let with Northwood Aberdeen

Whether you’ve found yourself letting for the first time, or you’re a seasoned landlord, your North East property and money are in safe hands. As an independent business with 15 years’ experience in the Aberdeen property market and offices in Rosemount and Inverurie plus virtual offices in Banchory and Stonehaven – plus over 95 offices nationwide in the wider Northwood franchise – we’re established and well-respected in the world of lettings.

We understand that each landlord has their own individual reasons for letting their property, and that each property is unique. We make it our job to spend time to understand your desired outcomes and how we can work together to implement them. Whether you only require our input to help ensure your property is compliant for lettings or to find a suitable tenant through to our fully managed service or Guaranteed Rent, we’re your trusted agent to achieving success as a landlord.

All our offices belong to the Property Ombudsman.

Expertise you can trust

All of our Property Managers have lived in Aberdeen city or shire for a number of years and are invested in the area. We know the Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire property market like the back of our hands and we can offer valuable insights and advice tailored to your unique property and goals.

Tailored solutions

We aim to be as flexible as possible by offering a range of landlord solutions that cater to your specific needs.

Whether you’re hoping to ‘let and forget’ as we manage your property or would like to be more hands on, we have a solution for you. See our full range of landlord services here.

Our free market valuations consider local features that will appeal to potential tenants in Aberdeen, Inverurie, Banchory, Stonehaven and the surrounding area – local parks, schools and amenities etc.

We won’t try to flatter you by suggesting a high valuation, but promise to provide realistic rental figures based on true market conditions.

Guaranteed Rent and peace of mind

Unlike insurance policies on the market, Northwood’s Guaranteed Rent provides you with a fixed rental income – paid in full and on time, every month for at least a year – along with a dedicated Property Manager to take care of all tenant queries and property maintenance.

Over 10,000 landlords benefit from Northwood’s Guaranteed Rent service
Northwood has a 20 year history of providing genuine guaranteed rent
It’s not an insurance product with exemptions, clauses and exclusions

Sound too good to be true?

A unique network

Matt joined the team many (many!) moons ago as our window cleaner! Fast forward 15 years and he now manages the day-to-day running of the business as Operations Director. Aligned with Laura’s founding vision of providing better service to landlords in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, he has a vested interest in best practice and achieving results.

We recruit staff locally – who are available to speak with over the phone, some in several languages (including Doric!), or meet in person – and train them thoroughly through our national training program so they have the skills to successfully manage your property. Each qualified Property Manager has completed the Letwell training programme, recognised by the Scottish government.

A name people recognise

With a national network of local experts, selling your property through Northwood really does allow it to stand out from the crowd.

As standard, your rental will be featured on the key national portals. This includes the likes of Rightmove, Zoopla and On The Market which are some of the biggest in the UK, gathering millions of unique website views every month. They also benefit from multi-million pound marketing campaigns, featuring hundreds of thousands of properties collated via reputable estate agents.

Carefully selected tenants

We operate on the basis that successful letting is about matching the right tenant for every property. Having a tenant who will treat the property with respect and has the appropriate finances in place to rent the property is a key consideration for a successful tenancy. We do this by prioritising clear communication, fair treatment and we foster strong tenant relationships that lead to long-term, successful tenancies. We ensure all prospective tenants are fully reference and credit checked.
