How to check for money protection:

Similar to losing the value of your car in an accident if you were without insurance, your letting agent not being covered could mean you lose money you're entitled to. This could happen if your letting agent misappropriates your funds, 'runs off' or goes out of business.

It is estimated that 40% of letting agents aren't protected. Here's our tips from ARLA propertymark to check your agent is protecting your money:

Check that your agent is covered at propertymark.co.uk/find-agent

In accordance with the Consumer Rights Act, an agent must display in their office and on their website if they have CMP, and who provides it for them. In the same way, an agent must disclose if they have no CMP cover.

ARLA Propertymark suggests you ask your agent:

a. Are you giving tenants all of the documentation required by law at the start of a tenancy?

b. How can you protect me and my property in this increasingly litigious world?

c. What if the tenant defaults on rent payments and what is your timeline of expectations?

Testimonials

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Zoe from Homes4Let to rent out our property, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very first interaction, Zoe stood out with her knowledge. She provided us with invaluable advice on how to prepare our property to attract the right tenants quickly. What sets Zoe apart is her friendly and approachable demeanor. She made the entire process feel seamless and stress-free, always ready to answer any questions we had with patience and clarity. She kept us updated every step of the way, ensuring we were fully informed and comfortable with all decisions made. Her proactive approach and ability to match the right tenants to our property were impressive. It's clear she not only has a deep understanding of the market but also genuinely cares about the needs of both property owners and tenants, striving to ensure a perfect match for both. Working with Zoe has been an absolute delight. If you're looking for a letting agent who truly goes above and beyond, Zoe is the person to go to. We're incredibly grateful for her hard work and dedication and look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you, Zoe, for making this process so easy and successful!"

"I am renting a house in Sovereign Harbour while my own house is undergoing renovation. I cannot speak highly enough of the service provided by Homes 4 Let. My initial enquiry was dealt with promptly and following a viewing I was offered the tenancy within three days. The house was very clean on moving in and is well maintained. Minor issues (fridge not reaching the correct temperature, faulty smoke alarm) have been followed up and resolved quickly. I am very fortunate to have secured this tenancy and highly recommend this agent. Thank you Zoe!"
