What landlords ask us

The questions we hear most

Where your home is advertised, how often we inspect, when you are paid and what happens in an emergency.

Where is my home advertised

Homes and flats go on Rightmove and Zoopla, and on our own website. Rooms in house shares go on SpareRoom and our website. Every advert shows the rent, the deposit and the council tax band, and we show every home ourselves.

How often homes are inspected

Every three months at a house share and every six months at a house or flat. Tenants get at least 24 hours’ written notice. We photograph each room and write a short report, and anything unsafe becomes a repair job straight away.

When you are paid

Once a month. When the month ends we check its statement, then pay you the rent received less our fee and any costs, with every invoice attached. See how we handle client money.

The repair spending limit

We agree a spending limit with you when you join. Anything above it is quoted to you for approval first, unless it is an emergency that has to be made safe at once.

Emergency cover

Emergencies are made safe within 24 hours: a gas leak, flooding, no heating or hot water in cold weather, unsafe electrics or a home that cannot be secured. Gas and electrical emergencies go straight to our sister company Manchester EICR.

Your statements

You get a statement every month showing the rent received, our fee and each cost, with the invoice attached. On full management, online access to your statements is available on request.

Questions

Letting agent and HMO questions from Tameside landlords

How much does a letting agent cost in Tameside with North Point?

Let only is 75% of the first month's rent (minimum £495). Full management is 12% of the rent collected. HMO management is 14% of the rent collected plus £120 for each room we let. We are not VAT registered, so there is no VAT to add. Every fee is on our services and fees page.

Is there a long contract?

No. Full management has no set-up fee and one month's notice. If we find your tenant there is a 6 month minimum, then one month's notice.

Do you manage HMOs and house shares?

Yes. We run house shares of our own, including a licensed six room house, and manage them for other landlords with room by room letting, cleaning of shared areas, fire safety servicing and licence renewals. See HMO management in Tameside.

Where are you based?

Our office is at Abode House on Crickets Lane in Ashton-under-Lyne. We manage across Tameside, including Stalybridge, Dukinfield and Hyde, plus Radcliffe and Whitefield.

Can I switch to you from another letting agent?

Yes. We handle the handover, and there is no let fee for a tenant already in place. Our guide to changing letting agent explains how it works.
