Property Management

Property Management Services:

Managing rentals is no easy task. We work closely with letting agents throughout England and Wales helping them perfect their internal processes and documentation and making sure they are up to date with the law. This leaves our clients to deliver a top level of service safe in the knowledge that their legal obligations are met.

Documents

With over 100 pieces of legislation, it is crucial to have legally compliant and well-drafted documents. Poorly drafted agreements often result in disputes, misunderstandings and even negligence claims – we have seen it first hand. Our documents have been drafted by our team of highly skilled specialist lawyers in plain English and guaranteed to be up to date at the time of purchase.

Whether you are just renting out a room in a property or an HMO, or you require assistance with paperwork for a change of sharer, we can help you. If you are unsure of the type of document you need then please do not hesitate to contact us

All of our documents are provided as an editable precedent that you can use time and time again.

Example documents include:

Tenancy Agreements
Guarantor Agreements
Agents' Terms of Business
Holding Deposit Agreement
Deed of Assignment or variation
GDPR compliance package
Deed of Surrender
Tort Acts Notice

Notices

There are strict requirements as to the format and service of section 8 and section 21 notices. It is crucial to get it right but it is not easy. Almost 75 % of notices served that we see are invalid. There have been a number of recent changes and continued challenge in the courts over the validity of notices served, making the task even harder.

At Woodstock we work closely with a number of agents serving all of their possession notices. This takes away the risk of an invalid notice being served and allows us to resolve any issues with the paperwork at the earliest opportunity leaving agents to do what they do best and successfully manage the property whilst protecting the landlord’s interest. If possession proceedings are required then we can issue proceedings without delay, safe in the knowledge that a fully compliant legally valid notice has been served.

All notices served are charged at an agreed fixed fee with reduced rates often available. Just send us the paperwork and we will take over.

The team at Woodstock offers helplines through The National Approved Lettings Scheme and other organisations as well as direct to managing agents.
