Landlord Guide
Dawsons are the largest letting agent in Swansea managing over 2000 properties for individual and portfolio landlords alike through our 5 lettings branches (Swansea city centre, Marina, Mumbles, Morriston and Llanelli). As a result, we can offer all landlords our unmatched specific expertise in dealing with all aspects of property management, maintenance and accounting, along with unrivalled advertising and promotion of all properties, therefore in turn offering our tenants the widest selection of properties with new availability on almost a daily basis.
We are established ARLA members (Association of Residential Letting Agents) offering the highest standard in property management, adhering to professional standards that work well for both landlords and tenants. Our involvement can give you as the landlord peace of mind that our procedures follow a strict code of practice during all stages of the management of your property. (For more information on ARLA visit www.arla.co.uk).
Dawsons are fully licensed and all our professional staff are fully trained to adhere with the regulatory landlord licensing Rent Smart Wales (RSW) which became compulsory for all landlords in Wales on November 23rd 2016. (For more information see below).
Our available properties are advertised 24/7 through our extensive advertising campaign: using two of the leading Internet property sites: On the Market and Zoopla along with our online and state of the art website (www.dawsonsproperty.co.uk), and within our 5 dedicated lettings branches. All properties advertised on the portal On the Market will be visible 24 hours prior to all other property portal sites, therefore an important tool for all landlords seeking maximum exposure.
Our alliance with Relocation Agent Network (RAN) links Dawsons ‘as the only regional agent’ linking with over 700 agents countrywide, together with a high profile web site www.relocation-agent-network.co.uk giving us unrivalled access to potential tenants nationally, and internationally. Also our strong relationship with various relocation teams and personnel departments of large companies helps provide us with a strong supply of regular tenants.
