Residential Lettings and Property Management
Why do you need C&D Lettings?
C&D take the complication out of being a landlord or tenant. We simplify the processes and provide clarity on legal matters.
Through our experience and knowledge, we understand both the opportunities and challenges letting a property can present. Our agents, with their excellent local knowledge of Cumbria, Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders, provide a comprehensive, personal service to our Landlords.
With competitive fees and a range of property management options, we give peace of mind to all our Landlords.
Landlord Services
Our dedicated Lettings and Property Management team are here to guide you through every stage of the process to ensure your property is properly managed.
Our competitively priced Property Management Packages ensure we find the perfect solution for every Landlord. From tenant find to rent collection to full management options, we aim to develop long term client relationships.
Unlike many agents, we don’t operate on a first come first served basis which means we can ensure we find the right tenant for your property.
Rental Valuation
A professional rental valuation ensures that you are getting the best return from your property. C&D offer no obligation pre-letting valuations and advice.
Marketing
With listings on Rightmove, Onthemarket, Zoopla and Boomin as well as targeted marketing via our in-house mailing lists, we guarantee the best exposure for your property.
Legal Compliance
Our specialist property management team can guide you through the steps you need to take to ensure your property is fully compliant with all current legislation in Scotland and England.
Energy Efficiency
Our team is here to provide clarity and advice on Minimum Standards in both Scotland and England. We can arrange EPC’s on your behalf and assist with government funded schemes for improvements to your property.
Viewings and application process
Our professional agents can manage viewings on your behalf. Thereafter, will take applications from suitable tenants before discussing in detail with you.
Tenancy Agreement
The Tenancy Agreement protects both the Landlord and the Tenant. In Scotland your property will be let on a standard Private Residential Tenancy. In England, it will be an Assured Shorthold Tenancy with a minimum 6 month term.
Inventories
We include a schedule of condition produced by our competent agents with all of our letting options. An inventory can help protect your claim on a deposit should the need arise when a tenant vacates. As such, this is something we strongly recommend you have prepared at the start of every tenancy.
Deposit Protection
All deposits are required to be held in a Government approved scheme. Our agents will vest the deposit for your property and can advise on the scheme rules and procedures.
Client Money Protection
All client money handled by C&D Rural on behalf of Property Management clients is protected by Client Money Protection Insurance.
