Story

New Landlords Welcomed:

Holiday Lettings:

We are inviting new landlords to experience our service, whether it be: a new acquisition; a period during summer whilst your property is empty or you just need help filling empty periods on your diary; we’re happy to help.

Smart Home Rentals provide two levels of service for holiday landlords:
Marketing only – we will take reservations and advise you of arrivals and any special requirements;
Full management – Bournemouth Beaches will look after all aspects of the booking: changeover cleaning and linen change, special requests, maintenance and we’ll be first point of call for your holiday guests.

Residential (long term) Lettings:

Do you require help letting your property for a longer period? Be it 3 months or 12 months we have a large tenant database, looking for all lengths of tenancy.

Smart Home Rentals offer three levels of service to landlords requiring an AST:
Tenant find only – Marketing your property, referencing incoming tenants and writing the agreement between yourself and the tenants.
Rent Collection – (Tenant find only package plus) arrangement of collecting rent each month, prepare and submit monthly statements to you, submit monthly transfer of funds and inform you of any missed rent.
Full Management – (Tenant find and rent collection packages plus) dealing with day-to-day enquiries/ maintenance issues, negotiate and agree dilapidations at the end of tenancy and make necessary deductions from tenants deposit and to forward any post addressed to you to a UK address.

Tenant Fees:
Once you have selected the property that you wish to rent you will need to pay an application fee, supply us with photo ID and two utility bills and complete an online application form. This allows us to reserve the property for you, subject to references. This will consist of an employee’s reference, a personal reference, a previous landlord reference and a credit check. Our minimum application costs are £150.00 (inc. VAT) and an additional £75.00 (inc. VAT) for each additional applicant for the tenancy over the age of 18 years old (this includes guarantor applications). Credit checks take a minimum of 48 hours depending on the response time of references.

No tenancy can commence without BBL receiving all references.
