We are proud to introduce you to Choices Properties. Our professional services include Letting, Management and Sales. Choices Management Department deals exclusively with management of rented properties. We are acutely aware of the demands associated with the management of a property. We provide a comprehensive service, which will deal with all aspects of management and remove from the landlord, the need for any involvement on a day to day basis.

The various aspects of our Management Services are listed below:

One month is taken as security on your property, this is retained by us. At the end of the lease the deposit is returned to the tenant after any deductions deemed necessary are made. The rent is collected monthly in advance and is lodged directly to your account. Any overdue rent payments are rigorously pursued.

Your property will be visited three times per annum, with a written report sent to you. We consider that frequent visits, by our management personnel is one of the most important aspects of our service. It gives us an opportunity to check the condition of the house and of course it gives you added peace of mind.
