All of our administration is properly handled by our friendly
and helpful staff to ensure you as a tenant clearly understand
all of the process involved. A draft of the actual agreement
is always sent well in advance of the move-in date to ensure
you have time to read and understand it, as well as time to
ask any questions about it.
Every property we have to offer will have undergone a strict
check list to ensure that the landlord complies with all the
regulations to include The Furniture and Furnishings (FIRE & SAFETY)

We always recommend to our clients that properties be professionally
cleaned and that a proper inventory check-in is conducted for
the benefit of both tenant and landlord.
As you can read, we are very thorough to ensure your rented
property from Mountford is ‘safe’, well presented
and with everything working as it should.
In addition, all our properties are correctly assessed by
our experienced property valuers who have had many years of
assessing market rental values for landlords in this area.
We are the first Agent in the area to become members of the
TDSRA. For a tenant this is a great leap forward as this ensures
that the deposit at the end of Tenancy is returned promptly
without unnecessary delays that can sometimes be experienced
from landlords. Should there be any dispute the matter is quickly
dealt with and resolved by the TDSRA.
