What is the difference between let only and full management?

Let only covers finding the tenant and setting up the tenancy. Full management also handles rent collection, repairs, compliance and inspections for the life of the tenancy.

Let only or full management?

If you would rather not deal with repairs at 9pm, chasing rent or keeping up with changing legislation, full management covers all of that for 14%. Not sure which suits you? Book a free valuation and we will give you a clear recommendation.

What let only costs

Let only is a one off fee agreed in writing at your valuation, based on the property and the work involved, and there is nothing further to pay us for the life of the tenancy. Compare that with our fully managed service at 14% of monthly rent and the decision usually comes down to time: if you are happy handling the day to day, let only is the cheaper route; if you are not, management pays for itself quickly. We will price both for your property so you can decide with real numbers in front of you.

What stays your responsibility

With let only, the tenancy is yours to run from the day the tenant moves in. That means collecting the rent and chasing any arrears, arranging repairs, renewing gas, electrical and alarm certificates when they fall due, handling the deposit correctly at the end of the tenancy, and keeping up with changes in letting law. None of it is difficult with a system, but all of it is your name on the line. Our compliance service can backstop the certificates if you want help with just that part, and our free 2026 compliance checklist is a sensible starting point.

Frequently asked questions

What is a let only service?

We find and reference a quality tenant and set up the tenancy, then hand the day to day management back to you.

Do you reference the tenants?

Yes. Every tenant is fully referenced with credit and right to rent checks before they move in.

Can I switch to full management later?

Absolutely. Many landlords start with let only and move to full management once they see how much time it frees up.

Do you protect the deposit?

Yes. Tenancy setup includes registering the deposit with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, membership G13462, and serving the prescribed information. After handover, end of tenancy deposit handling is your responsibility.

How long does it take to find a tenant?

It depends on the property, its condition and the asking rent. Well presented Doncaster homes priced realistically attract applications quickly, and we begin marketing as soon as the property is ready to show.
