PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

A common-sense approach

Here at VIKINGS, we understand how important your investment is to you. We pride ourselves in providing you with a highly professional and efficient service when it comes to managing your property

As a family business with strong ties to the local community, we have been regarded as the area’s leading independent letting agent for over 38 years. We hope our longevity speaks volumes about the quality of our service. In this section we aim to give you further insight into what VIKINGS will do for you

Whilst we are confident that the words ‘professionalism’, ‘experienced’ and ‘knowledgeable’ go a long way towards helping you choose VIKINGS for the management of your property, there are two more words that we guarantee will make a difference: ‘COMMON SENSE’. This attribute is key to ensuring your property is well-managed.

Jason K Scales, owner of VIKINGS, has been at the heart of the property management for VIKINGS’ landlords for 33 years. He says:

”I can assure you that our common-sense approach in dealing with tenants, landlords and property maintenance alike is what makes our service unique. As a landlord myself, I completely understand what is expected to ensure the competent management of properties. Our close-knit team treats every property as if it is their own - an outlook that reaps rewards for our landlords.’’

Property management can at times have its challenges – your investment is also the tenant’s home. VIKINGS acts as the middle-man between you and your tenant; therefore, it is essential that we treat each situation with care and integrity. Experience has taught us that most situations can be managed effectively by being personable and using common sense. We have nurtured this approach, which has been tried and trusted in the management of thousands of landlords’ properties over the last 38 years. We are confident that it will work for you, too.

With compliance and legislation constantly changing in the lettings industry it is vitally important that your property meets current regulation standards.  As a fully qualified members of Safeagent, and the Property Ombudsman – and through our own due diligence – we ensure that you and your property are up-to-date with all the latest legal requirements, giving you complete peace of mind that your investment is fully compliant.
