Lettings

Our experienced and dedicated lettings team at Halcyon House will be there to assist you through the entire letting process, from the initial stages of valuation to finding the ideal tenant. No task is too big or too small. We are passionate about what we do and care about our clients.

We only contract experienced and qualified professionals for Inventories, Property Check-outs, Energy Performance Certificates, as well as Gas Safety checks and Electrical tests.

Our referencing process is in depth and carried out by HomeLet, which is one of the most established and recognized referencing company within our industry. HomeLet will ensure that each applicant has undergone a credit check in addition to obtaining both landlord and employment references.

For peace of mind, you may wish to consider our Property Management to remove the headache and stress of having to look after your property and deal directly with your tenant. Please refer to the management link below.

As your Letting agent you can count on us to provide:

  • Professional Advice
  • Online and Print Marketing
  • Access to our large database of applicants

  • Tenant Introduction Service

Optional: Inventory
Upon request and at an additional charge we can arrange an inventory clerk to prepare an inventory and schedule of condition and we strongly recommend this for furnished and unfurnished properties as it can save costly litigation and disputes at the termination of the tenancy. Under the tenancy deposit scheme a landlord is unlikely to claim compensation for any loss or damage if there is no inventory.
