Lettings & Property Management in York

From single lets to multi-property portfolios, our lettings team in York provides hands-on support that makes the whole process straightforward for landlords. We handle everything from tenant sourcing, referencing, compliance, maintenance coordination, and monthly reporting so you can get on with your life.

York has strong and sustained rental demand across all price brackets, particularly in YO10 (driven by the University of York and York St John), YO24, and the city centre. We know which properties let quickly, which tenants stay longest, and how to protect your investment for the long term.

Guaranteed Rent York

This is the scheme that changes everything for landlords.

Northwood’s Guaranteed Rent scheme is exclusive to us – and it’s exactly what it says. You receive your rent every single month, whether your property is occupied or not, and whether your tenant pays or not. No chasing. No voids. No sleepless nights.

We take on the risk so you don’t have to. It’s the most hands-free way to let a property in York, and it’s available exclusively through Northwood.

Guaranteed monthly income, even if the property is empty

No void periods, no rent arrears, no hassle

Ideal for landlords who want total peace of mind

Property Investment Support — The Investors Club

Thinking about investing in property in York? Our Investors Club connects buyers and sellers of tenanted properties, meaning you can acquire income-producing stock from day one – with tenants already in situ, no void risk, and no notice period to wait out.

Whether you’re building a portfolio from scratch or adding to an existing one, we’ll match you with the right opportunity in the right part of York for your goals.

Maintenance & Compliance

Our in-house maintenance team, led by Will Haigh, takes care of everything from routine repairs to full compliance checks, EICRs, gas safety, EPCs, and everything in between. Every managed property under our care is kept safe, legal, and well-presented.

Why Choose Northwood York?

There’s no shortage of estate and letting agents in York. Here’s why landlords, sellers, and investors consistently choose us:

We’re locally owned – and we know York properly

Our York office is owner-operated, which means the people you speak to are decision-makers, not intermediaries. We know the difference between the rental demographics of YO10 and YO30, why Clifton attracts first-time buyers, and what investors should look for in the Tang Hall and Fishergate corridor. That granular knowledge shapes everything we do.

We back our promises with certainty

Anyone can promise great service. We’re the only agent in York who can promise guaranteed rent – our own financial commitment to landlords, not an insurance product, not a third-party scheme. When we say you’ll get paid, we mean it.

Proactive marketing that reaches the right people

Professional photography, optimised listings, and targeted digital campaigns mean your property gets seen by qualified buyers and tenants – fast. We don’t just list and wait.

National network, local presence

As part of the Northwood national network, we have access to shared intelligence, referral enquiries from across the UK, and the brand recognition that gives buyers and tenants confidence. You get the best of both worlds: a team that knows your street and a brand that carries national weight.

Are You a Landlord in York?

Whether you have one property or ten, we have a scheme to suit you. From full management to our exclusive Guaranteed Rent option, we’ll find the right structure for your circumstances – and make sure you’re fully compliant with current legislation, including the Renters’ Rights Act 2025.

If you’ve heard about Guaranteed Rent and want to know more, our York team will give you a straight answer about whether your property qualifies and what you’d receive each month.

Say goodbye to voids. Say hello to guaranteed income – every month, no matter what.
