Landlord Information

Professional and commercial landlords have taken advantage of the rental markets for years, but now investment property is becoming an increasingly popular way for private landlords to subsidise income and provide additional funds to top up more regular pension schemes.

Whether professional landlord or private speculator, property management is key to ensuring you get the best possible return from your investment. Having undertaking property management since 1958, Bramleys is one of the largest independent management agencies in the area taking care of hundreds of properties from residential, commercial, industrial and office style lets. As with most of its services, Bramleys offers a comprehensive yet highly flexible property management solution. We can provide a range of services from help and advice on getting started to a full management package where we take care of everything.
