A FIRST CLASS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT SERVICE

We understand service and efficiency. We pay attention to detail. We understand there may be similar ways to let and manage your property but there are not similar standards. And, true to Mariana Real Estate, we pride ourselves on surpassing our standards to our landlords – and not just meeting them.

To be the best, you must work with the best. That’s why at Mariana Real Estate we use only the very best property service contractors. From referencing through to inventory services and maintenance, utilising the very best in the industry is vital for an efficient and cost-effective management service. Our bank of dedicated and fully-insured contractors are all regularly vetted to ensure they are providing the best service and workmanship, whilst maintaining competitive pricing.

There are many practical and legal issues to consider and the list can seem endless. Our comprehensive service covers all aspects of property management including, but not limited to the following:

• Minor and major redecoration works and overseeing refurbishments
• Bespoke interior design and furnishing services
• Arranging payments of outgoings such as ground rent and service charge
• Provision of a 24 hour emergency helpline
• Advising on deductions from the deposit and managing the check-out procedure
• Electrical installations and maintenance
• Gas installations and maintenance
• Ensuring compliance with all safety regulations i.e. Gas Safety Certificates, Portable Appliance Testing / Electrical Safety Regulations, Fire and Furnishing Regulations
• General property maintenance
• Cleaning and repair works
• Transfer of Utilities where needed
• Full property inspections made every six months
• Ensuring landlords are compliant with the regulations concerning Assured Shorthold Tenancies and the Tenancy Deposit Scheme
• Tax advice for overseas landlords

We don’t just promise to deliver, but we deliver on our promises. We offer bespoke management services tailored to your requirements. Mariana Real Estate has something for everyone and their differing management needs. Our Property Management service is the perfect partner to our residential lettings business. The service provides better peace of mind as legislation becomes more confusing and prone to change. The process of finding of a tenant for your property is often just the first step in a successful letting.

GUIDE TO LETTINGS (LANDLORDS)

We have a strong reputation for really knowing London and for providing an unrivalled Letting and Management Service to all of our clients. This means our clients come to us for investment advice as well as us letting and managing their property. We have access to a large database of the best private and corporate tenants. We know the market conditions to ensure our landlords get the maximum in rent with minimum void periods. Our Lettings consultants will fully explain exactly what tenants want and how to maximise a landlord’s investment income. We can assist with all aspects including furnishing by one of our recommended interior design specialists who have been tried and tested over the years.

We are accredited members of The Property Ombudsmen scheme which means we follow a Code of Practice and Rules of Conduct. Renting from an accredited agent means you have a route to redress anything that might go wrong.

Our team will work with you on the all-important appearance of your property which will have the biggest impact on the rental value, time to rent, occupancy level, and final yield achieved. We will also advise you on all aspects of renting your property from landlord’s insurance requirements through to costs that may be offset against taxation.
