A broad range of homes

We manage a wide range of rental properties across Bournemouth, Poole, Ferndown and the surrounding areas, from apartments to family homes, and take time to understand what matters to you first.

Support throughout your tenancy

From your first enquiry through to the move in and beyond, our team is genuinely on hand to help if anything comes up, not just during the application process.

A guide to renting property

The first step is registering your requirements with our team, including your budget, preferred areas across Bournemouth, Poole, Ferndown and the surrounding area, and any must haves such as parking, outdoor space or proximity to schools and transport links, so we can let you know as soon as something suitable comes up.

We will let you know about suitable properties as they become available and arrange viewings at times that work for you, giving honest feedback on each one to help you make the right decision rather than just ticking boxes on a listing.

When you find a property you would like to rent, you will need to submit an application, at which point referencing begins, typically including checks on income, employment, credit history and references from previous landlords, so it is worth having these details ready in advance.

We will prepare your tenancy agreement, setting out the terms including rent, deposit and the responsibilities of both tenant and landlord, giving you the chance to ask questions before signing anything.

Before you move in, you will pay your deposit and first month's rent, and your deposit will be registered with a government approved tenancy deposit scheme. An inventory will also be carried out, documenting the property's condition and contents, which is worth reviewing carefully as it is used as the reference point when your tenancy ends.

Frequently asked questions

1. How much deposit will I need to pay?

Deposits are capped by law, typically equivalent to five weeks' rent for annual rents under £50,000. Your deposit will be protected in a government approved scheme for the duration of your tenancy.

2. What checks will I need to pass?

Referencing typically covers income and employment checks, credit history, and references from previous landlords. Having these details ready in advance helps the process move as quickly as possible.

3. What happens when my tenancy ends?

We will guide you through the checkout process, including an inspection against the original inventory and the return of your deposit, making the transition as straightforward as possible.
