Why work with Nestegg Rentals rather than a traditional agent?

As full-time landlords, we can bring the same diligence, experience and care from our own properties to yours. We will manage your property like we manage our own!

Agents typically focus on lettings, with property management frequently relegated to a minor sideline. This results in the property management function often being done quite poorly, resulting in upset tenants and frustrated landlords. This is how we compare:

Traditional Agent

  • Lack of prompt attention to maintenance issues, tenant issues & complaints, resulting in frustrated tenants and minor maintenance issues becoming major ones
  • Often act as a 'post-box' with little autonomy and frequently 'passing the buck' to the landlord for most maintenance issues
  • Heavy use of external maintenance companies for even minor work, which result in high and unncesssary costs
  • Large number of clients per property manager, resulting in limited attention per property
  • Property management often carried out by junior staff, with relatively high turnover, leading to unfamiliarity with your property and lack of ability to deal with issues

Nestegg Rentals

  • Primary focus on property management and retaining good tenants as a priority, rather than new lettings businesss
  • Heavily focussed on sorting out any tenant issues promptly, before tenants become upset or the property incurs greater damage
  • Wealth of experience of managing our own properties, with minor maintenance issues dealt with autonmously and bigger issues only presented to landlords with a recommended and well thought out plan for approval
  • Limited number of external clients, resulting in high level of attention for each property
  • Small family-run business with experienced, permanent individuals that will manage your property long-term
