Letting & Property Management

Professional Membership

We are members of the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) - the leading professional body for the letting industry in the UK. Conditions of membership are strict and are intended to offer security to both landlord and tenant alike.

The Agency must demonstrate that their technical knowledge of the Lettings Industry is of a sufficiently high standard and that they have adequate financial controls when dealing with clients’ money. This is achieved through a detailed application process that includes formal interviews.

The Agency must operate a separate client account.

All member Agents must carry Professional Indemnity Insurance to the required standard.

Commissions for letting property may only be obtained from landlords.

The business must operate out of properly designated business premises.

Our membership affords you, our client, the protection of the ARLA Bonding Scheme. This scheme was devised to provide complete protection against the misappropriation of any money, that may belong to the landlord or tenant, which is held by an ARLA member. The landlord or tenant needs only to show that money rightfully belonging to them has been misappropriated.
