Our roots are in Property Management; it was the first service provided by Islington Properties and is still at the core of the business. Like our other services, we don't believe in a cookie-cutter approach and are proud to provide a tailored approach to property management. We enjoy managing a diverse range of property types – from listed buildings to brand-new flats – and portfolio sizes – from single buy-to-let investments to more extensive portfolios of multiple properties.
Although most of the properties we manage are still in Islington, Camden and Hackney, we also manage many properties further afield (for example, in Kensington & Chelsea, Clapham, Croydon and Westminster), so please get in touch with us if you have requirements in Greater London.
We offer competitive rates (including discounted rates to leaseholders in blocks we manage).
Our standard service includes the following:
- Day-to-day maintenance issues
- Dealing with refurbishing requirements
- Periodic rent collection, including full statements
- Efficient handling of rent arrears (if any)
- Six-monthly property inspections
- Organising inventory, check-in and check-out reports
- Holding and dealing with Deposits (in accordance with TDSRA where applicable)
We also handle more unusual issues such as preparing HMO applications, liaising with local councils and, should it be required, assisting in preparing court possession forms.
Our standard management fee is 5% plus VAT (6% including VAT) of the gross rental income, payable on the same basis as the rent is paid (i.e. monthly, quarterly, etc). Please contact us to discuss discounted rates if you have more extensive portfolios.
