Why Kings?
Choosing the right letting agent is as important as choosing the right property and can have a direct impact to your investments bottom line.
Deposit Compliance
Our deposits are placed in a Tenancy Deposit Protection Scheme in line with The Housing Act 2004.
Utility Bill management
We liaise on your behalf with utility companies and the local councils advising them of who is liable for the charges relating to specific periods. This alleviates the chance of any bills being incorrectly billed to the landlord by default, which can save a lot of time and inconvenience.
Gas Safety
Landlords have legal responsibilities for the safety of tenants occupying their properties. We ensure you are kept fully compliant with the law.
Duty of care advice
We ensure you are compliant with section 11 of the landlord tenant act and made aware of any maintenance issues which could cause you to breach the act.
Tax advice
As a landlord you are legally bound to keep and retain records and can be fined up to £3000 for every year that you have failed to maintain adequate records. Our property management software details your income and expenditure which you can pass to your accountant to aid in producing your tax return. Landlords should seek independent advice from an accountant as the complex rules change intermittently. If you do not have an accountant we are happy to recommend one that we work with.
