Across the UK, our local teams combine genuine care with expert knowledge to make letting straightforward, secure, and stress-free.

This blend of local insight and national strength means your property benefits from both community connections and the support of a trusted UK brand.
Flexible property management, tailored to you
No two landlords are alike. Whether you want complete hands-off management or simply help find a reliable tenant, we’ll tailor our service around your needs:
Guaranteed Rent Service
Our Guaranteed Rent service offers landlords the benefit of a guaranteed fixed income on their property, regardless of whether or not it is let or the tenant stops paying. It’s the perfect ‘let it and forget it’ solution for busy landlords.
Fully Managed Landlord Service
The Fully Managed Service is suitable for landlords who have limited time to manage their property. We look after every aspect of the tenancy just as we would with the Guaranteed Rent service but the key difference is that we do not provide guaranteed rental payments.
How it works
We charge a set up fee for finding the tenant, assisting you with property preparations, interviewing tenants, drawing up the necessary agreements and preparing the inventory. We then charge a monthly commission for managing all tenant enquiries, undertaking regular maintenance service and rent collection. At the end of the tenancy we will also help with check out.
Rent Collection Landlord Service
The Rent Collection service suits a landlord who has the time and energy to deal with tenants and their requests but would like support with some of the financial and administrative duties.
How it works
We charge a set up for finding the tenant, assisting you with property preparations, interviewing tenants, drawing up the necessary agreements and preparing the inventory.
Since the landlord is responsible for the upkeep of the property, the monthly commission is lower than Fully Managed Service. Northwood take responsibility for rent collection and payment to the landlord by BACS.
Tenant Find Service
Some landlords prefer to be completely hands-on. They are willing to take on the full responsibility of running the tenancy and simply want help finding a suitable tenant.
How it works
We advertise the property, accompany prospective tenants on viewings and source the correct references. We charge a set up for finding the tenant, assisting you with property preparations, interviewing tenants, drawing up the necessary agreements and preparing the inventory. The fee for this service depends entirely on the type of property being let.
Whatever you choose, you’ll have total transparency and ongoing support from a team that treats your property as if it were their own.
Trusted tenants, chosen with care
We know how important it is to have tenants who will treat your property with respect. Every applicant is fully referenced, credit-checked, and verified for their right to rent in the UK, ensuring your investment is protected from day one.
Our thorough approach means you can relax knowing we’ve matched your property with the right people.
Guaranteed Rent that keeps you covered
Our Guaranteed Rent service is what sets Northwood apart. You receive your rent on time, every month, even if your tenant doesn’t pay.
For over 30 years, thousands of landlords have relied on this simple, genuine promise: we guarantee your income, not through insurance or fine print, but through our own commitment.
That’s why more than 20,000 landlords trust Northwood to manage their properties with confidence.
