Become a landlord with Yorkshire’s best letting agent

Our first port of call will be a visit to your property to give you an accurate and realistic idea of achievable rent. Applying our 40+years of experience and intricate knowledge of the local market, we’ll also provide you with pointers on how to make the property more appealing to tenants.

Following a written instruction agreement, we get to work on the marketing front. We’ll process high-quality photography and arrange hard-hitting advertising campaigns across social media, On The Market, Rightmove and our website. We also advertise your home across all six of our offices.

We then begin to arrange viewings, which are offered 7 days a week and outside of traditional working hours. Prospective tenants are always accompanied by a Robert Watts lettings staff member to ensure the property is promoted in a highly attractive manner and any queries are responded to with demonstrable expertise and professionalism.

We will always strive to secure the highest rent so will encourage a competitive application & referencing process, if appropriate. Once an acceptable offer has been agreed we undertake an intensive tenant referencing check which includes a full credit check; employment references for the last 6 months; and a landlord reference if the tenant is currently in rented accommodation.

Following a successful reference check, typically within 5 days, we will discuss the results with you and confirm a move in date if you are happy for us to do so.
