Ideal Properties’ working commitments

Our obligations to you...

At Ideal Properties we love what we do

We pride ourselves on matching the right people with the right homes.  We take the time to see the little things that other agents may miss.  We're huge bubbles of knowledge, handing out tips about our areas that only a local would know.  And where others see clients, we see people; where others see houses, we see homes.

  • We have a passion for the job that shows and therefore makes us the first port-of-call when people are buying, selling or renting.
  • We offer a unique perspective on what really sells and rents homes and the areas we work in.
  • We take care of the small details that make every home different.
  • We listen to what people really want and base out focus around that, so no one's time is wasted.
  • We make the home-moving process as pleasant and hassle-free as possible.
  • We behave in a way that demonstrates to our clients how and why we see things differently, so that they can see things differently too.
 
I have nothing but praise for the guys at Ideal Properties. We were renting through them for just over two years and had a wonderful experience throughout. Whenever there was an issue concerning the property, it was addressed in a very prompt and efficient manner. We’d had bad experiences in the past with agents but can truly say that Ideal Properties have put renewed trust in us for estate agents.

As a first time landlord I did not know what to expect. Ideal Properties guided me through the whole process - advising me on everything from the legal length of a short term tenancy to which blinds to put at the windows. I found everyone at Ideal Properties really listened to what I was looking for and tried to match my property to the right tenant.

I’m so pleased I chose Ideal Properties! My property was given a great valuation and sold quickly, the perfect outcome.

Services

Property Valuations

Online valuations provide an estimate of how much your house is worth, based on average property prices in your area. But these are based on the assumption that your home is typical of those in the area. We therefore always recommend that an estate agent visit your property to discuss how to market your property to the best effect given your circumstances, the timeframes you are working to and the sale price you hope to achieve.

Quality Marketing

Our unique multi-channel approach to marketing your property is designed to showcase it in a way that entices potential tenants to enquire about the property. We have a team of local experts who work with you to secure the very best applicants, paying the maximum price for your property, all within a timeframe that suits your needs.

Property Management

We understand that sometimes it can be extremely stressful and time consuming when managing the day to day affairs of your rental property. This is why we have employed decades of knowledge and experience to develop a streamlined model which ensures that things run as smoothly as possible with the minimum amount of stress for you, our client. We pride ourselves on our work ethic and the commitment we dedicate to our clients, and stride to exceed your expectations every time..

Financial Advice

At Ideal Properties we work closely with reputable financial advisers who would be more than pleased to compare the latest mortgage deals and devise a mortgage which is tailored to your individual sales situation. The financial advice that they would provide you with would be totally impartial. They also understand and appreciate the time restraints involved with the purchase of a property, and work to ensure that a product is recommended within a timely manner.

Relocation Assistance

We’ve already done all the hard work and research so you don’t have to. Whether you’re moving back to the UK from abroad, downsizing, looking to take the next step on the property ladder, or looking to invest in property, we have an expert for you with a thorough knowledge of the local area, and could tailor your search to your personal requirements. Whether it’s schooling that is a priority for you, or it could be transport links, maybe certain activities, or even a combination. We’ve got you covered!
