Services
Let Only Package
Our Let Only Package provides essential letting services for landlords seeking minimal involvement. We handle property marketing, tenant referencing, and agreement preparation while maintaining transparency throughout the process. This option suits landlords comfortable managing ongoing tenancy matters directly.
Management Package
The Management Package offers comprehensive property oversight including rent collection, maintenance coordination, and tenant communication. We handle safety certifications and deposit protection while providing regular property inspections to ensure landlords' investments remain secure and compliant.
Rent Collection Package
This intermediary package combines tenant vetting with rent processing support while allowing landlords to manage direct tenant relationships. We handle payment collection and arrears chasing, providing financial oversight without full management responsibilities.
Tenant Referencing
Our thorough referencing process verifies applicants' financial stability and rental history through bank statements, payslips, and previous landlord references. This ensures reliable tenant placements while maintaining compliance with Right to Rent legislation for landlords' protection.
Maintenance Services
Dedicated maintenance support offers preferential rates for property repairs and upkeep. Our team coordinates urgent and scheduled work, ensuring properties remain in optimal condition while minimising void periods between tenancies.

J R Estates were so helpful when I was having problems with my tenant and agency. Despite the fact that I was not even with this company, they gave me clear and constructive advice, checked over letters I had written and willingly shared their experience and knowledge about the letting sector. Shuan was approachable, friendly and frank about the situation I was in. All his team, espcially Amy, were just so professional and reassuring about my rights and the steps I should take as a landlord. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a trust worthy and reliable estate agency in the

JR Estates have been excellent to work with. Shaun is very knowledgeable about the area and was able to secure tenants very quickly. I am able to leave my property in his care to be managed without any worries, which is a rare find when it comes to estate agents.
