- A complementary survey and schedule of works carried out to ensure your property is up to standard, with absolutely no obligation or strings attached.

Kendall Bailey specialises in HMO property management and guaranteed rent service for our Landlords. We rent properties directly from landlords for fixed, long-term tenancies, taking over the full responsibility of the property and managing it on the landlord’s behalf. Landlords then deal with us, instead of the tenants. We fully re-furbish and furnish the properties, pay all bills (including cleaners and gardeners), and then provide rooms to working professionals on 6-month Assured Shorthold Tenancies (ASTs).

Access to the internet is becoming a basic requirement in this day and age. Students and professionals living in HMOs are technically savvy and use the internet to do a range of activities such as coursework, research, streaming music & movies, accessing chat rooms, playing on games consoles and communicating on social network sites. The internet is now seen as being as important as other utilities.

Providing internet access can influence tenants picking your house over the next by avoiding the need for them to go through the process of getting it installed in the property. Landlord Broadband has been designed in consultation with Landlords, Letting Agents and the Telecommunications industry to help provide more desirable properties in a competitive market. This specialist service allows you to provide a high-performance internet service as part of your rental package with one bill for your whole portfolio, controlled usage costs and without the need to field any technical queries.
