Property Management Service
High-quality properties deserve high-quality tenants
The Edinburgh property market is overcrowded, and we know this. While other companies may cut corners to fill vacancies, we approach things a little differently.
- Rigorous and secure rental agreements
- Thorough tenant screening
- 98% occupancy rates
- Strict tenancy guidelines
With a focus on finding quality properties and tenants and offering fair prices, we can continue to deliver our highly professional property management services to both our tenants and landlords. On average, it takes us about 15 days to let out a property, from the time a tenant gives their notice to vacate the property until we take the property off the market with a fully vetted tenant ready to sign the lease!
Adding Value
Honest Accurate Appraisals
Before putting any property on the market, we first make sure the price is right. The first step we take to ensure this is to complete a full appraisal. Knowing everything about a property, its inventory and what it offers, allows us to compare it to the current property market. This allows us to be confident that you will receive the highest possible rent while still offering reasonable prices to prospective tenants.
Finding the right tenants
It’s important to get it right at the start! Getting it right at the start can prevent future problems!
Selecting the best tenant will give you, the landlord, peace of mind. We select tenants who will be responsible and reliable when it comes to looking after your property and who will pay the rent on time.
Property Marketing and Advertising
The next step we take is to get your property on the market and find the best tenants to occupy it.
Unlike other companies, we never cut corners to fill a property. Using our strict tenant screening process, we ensure that all our tenants are suitable before accepting any offers. This includes thorough checks of:
Property Photographs – High quality digital marketing photos and video are taken of the property; drone photos can also be taken.
Viewings – We do accompanied viewings and this is a two way process; the tenant is viewing the property and we are viewing (gauging) the tenant. Virtual viewings can also be arranged for out-of-town prospects.
Background Checks – Full credit and reference checks are carried out by an external, independent company who verify identity, previous address and landlord history as well as affordability and credit status.
With the rental price set and the tenants screened, we draw up the tenant documents in line with current tenancy legislation. A full inventory is drawn up noting the current condition and cleanliness of the property, including accompanying dated and time stamped photos.
Meter readings are taken and then keys can be handed over to the new occupying tenants.
Uncomplicated Detailed Inventories That Protect Your Investment
Clear, uncomplicated yet detailed Inventories allow us to better manage your property. Due to the Tenancy Deposit Scheme legislation, all letting agencies in Scotland, must rigorously justify any end-of-tenancy costs that would be deducted from a deposit. This makes it essential to have an inventory carried out at the start of a tenancy to measure any subsequent deterioration beyond fair wear-and-tear.
Our inventories are compiled with Inventory Software that states the condition and cleanliness of all aspects of the property, from light fittings to floor covering, from cutlery to coffee tables. A detailed description, make and model where available. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words! An inventory is not just a detailed description, the photos of each item accompanies the detailed descriptions and can be the difference between a successful claim or not!
We endeavour to get things right at the outset of the tenancy to prevent costly time disputes at the end of the tenancy! In the meantime, speak to your Pure Property Manager for advice and to explore options available to you.
You can be CONFIDENT that we will DELIVER and make your property PROFITABLE over time!
