Northwood provided a really comprehensive and professional service. They gave me all the relevant information and guidance at the outset and told me what to expect. They showed me examples of comparative properties and gave me an accurate estimate of the likely rental value before marketing the house for letting. They took a lot of trouble showing the property to prospective tenants and assessing the best ones to proceed with. They also produced an extremely detailed, clear and accurate inventory, with photographs, to establish the condition of the house and its fixtures and fittings at the time of letting. I was very impressed with their thoroughness and professionalism, and their competitive fees, and would recommend them to anyone thinking of letting their property.
Competitve and in accordance with prior estimate.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
