Service Ledger

The six services delivered by DPZ PROPERTY LTD

Each entry below explains what the service covers, how it is delivered and what a landlord or tenant receives at the end of it. The services can be combined into a single managed instruction or taken individually, and the records from one feed directly into the others.

Service 01

Lettings and Tenant Finding

The lettings service begins with a measured survey of the property and a clear recommendation on rent. DPZ PROPERTY LTD prepares professional photography, a scaled floor plan and a written description that presents the home honestly to the market. The listing is published across the channels that reach active applicants in the Wellingborough area, and enquiries are answered the same working day wherever possible.

Every enquiry is screened before a viewing is offered. Affordability, household composition, move in timing and any special requirements are discussed, so the landlord spends time with applicants who are genuinely in a position to proceed. Viewings are arranged in blocks, accompanied where useful, and followed by a short note on each applicant with comments and a recommendation.

When an offer is made, it is presented with the applicant background attached and a suggested response. Once terms are agreed, the chosen applicant moves into referencing, and a holding arrangement secures the home while those checks complete. A landlord who wants the full package can move straight into management without repeating any of the groundwork.

  • Measured survey, photography and scaled floor plan
  • Screened enquiries and arranged viewing blocks
  • Written applicant notes and offer presentations
  • Referencing coordination and holding arrangements
Service 02

Full Property Management

Full management is for landlords who would rather not handle the day to day work of a tenancy. DPZ PROPERTY LTD becomes the single point of contact for the tenant, the contractor and the landlord, and carries the administrative load that sits between them. Rent is collected and reconciled, repairs are instructed and checked, and every statutory duty is diarised so nothing slips.

Reporting is deliberately plain. A landlord receives a monthly statement that shows rent received, any deductions, the management position and the balance due, with the supporting documents attached. Rather than a folder of scans, the summary explains what happened in the month in a few lines and highlights anything that needs a decision.

The management file also travels well. If the landlord sells the property, remortgages, or moves the work to another adviser, the compliance history, repair log and tenancy record are all ready to hand over. That continuity protects the value of the asset and reduces the cost of any change.

  • Single point of contact for tenants and contractors
  • Monthly statements with supporting documents
  • Diarised compliance dates and renewal bookings
  • Portfolio level reporting for multiple addresses
Service 03

Rent Collection and Arrears Control

Rent collection is run on a fixed schedule so both sides know exactly what to expect. The agreed rent is collected each month, matched against the tenancy record and reconciled within the working week. The landlord is told promptly if a payment is short, and the tenant is given a clear statement of the position rather than a vague warning.

Where arrears appear, the response is graduated and documented. A soft reminder is followed by a direct conversation, and then by a written payment plan where the tenant can commit to one. Each step is logged with dates, so the landlord has a complete history if the matter ever needs to be escalated. Most arrears are settled well before that point because early contact stops a small shortfall from becoming a large one.

The team also reviews the rent position at renewal. Comparable evidence is gathered, a defensible figure is proposed, and the tenant is given proper notice of any change. Regular reviews keep the income aligned with the market rather than drifting behind it.

  • Scheduled collection and same week reconciliation
  • Graduated reminders, calls and written payment plans
  • Documented arrears history for every property
  • Market aligned rent reviews at renewal
Service 04

Compliance and Safety Checks

A rented home carries a set of recurring legal duties, and DPZ PROPERTY LTD keeps them all on one calendar. Gas safety inspections, electrical condition reporting, smoke and carbon monoxide alarm checks, legionella awareness steps and energy performance documentation are booked ahead of the renewal date and filed against the property on the day they are completed.

Landlords receive a short written summary of each visit. It states what was inspected, the date and result, when the next check falls due and any recommended spend. Where a fault is found, the team arranges the remedial work and confirms it is done, rather than leaving an open item on the file.

Winter is the busiest period for heating and safety engineers, and appointments fill quickly across Northamptonshire. Booking early is the simplest way to avoid a rush, which is why the compliance service treats the calendar as part of the job rather than an administrative extra.

  • Gas, electrical, alarm and water hygiene scheduling
  • Certificates filed against each property record
  • Plain written summaries with next due dates
  • Remedial work arranged and verified
Service 05

Inventories and Inspections

A good inventory is the backbone of a fair tenancy. Before every move in, DPZ PROPERTY LTD prepares a dated record with room by room notes and photographs that capture the condition of walls, floors, fixtures, fittings and appliances. The tenant attends a check in session that walks the same rooms, so both sides begin from one agreed description.

During the tenancy, periodic inspections are carried out at sensible intervals with notice given in advance. Each visit produces a short summary for the landlord covering condition, any maintenance spotted and anything the tenant has raised. Issues are dealt with as they are found rather than saved up for the end of the term.

At check out the property is compared against the original inventory, meter readings are taken and keys are accounted for. Because the evidence is dated and specific, deposit decisions can be explained clearly, and the address is made ready for its next listing with the minimum of delay.

  • Dated inventories with photographs
  • Attended check in sessions
  • Periodic inspections with written summaries
  • Evidence based check out and deposit support
Service 06

Maintenance Coordination

Reported faults are triaged at the first contact. Anything that touches safety is escalated the same day, urgent faults such as a loss of heating are prioritised, and routine items are scheduled into a sensible slot. Tenants are told what will happen next, and landlords are told what it will cost before larger work is approved.

DPZ PROPERTY LTD works with a short list of local contractors it has used repeatedly for heating, electrical, plumbing, roofing and general building repairs. Where a job is substantial, written quotes are compared so the landlord can see the options. Completed work is checked and the invoice is passed on with a short note explaining what was done.

Every repair is added to the property history. Over time that log shows which parts of the building have needed attention, which helps a landlord plan improvements and supports the rating the home carries on the ledger. A well maintained address is easier to let, easier to insure and more comfortable to live in.

  • Severity based triage with same day escalation
  • Vetted local trades and compared quotes
  • Appointment windows for tenants, reports for landlords
  • Full repair history held with the property file

Process Overview

How a managed instruction runs from start to finish

The steps below apply to a single property or a portfolio. Each stage leaves a record, and each record feeds the rating that sits beside the address on the DPZ PROPERTY LTD ledger.

01

Survey and rent advice

The address is measured, photographed and checked against comparable lettings, and a rent figure is recommended with the reasoning written down. Repairs that would hold back a good rating are raised at this point.

02

Listing and viewings

The property is advertised with full details and a floor plan, and viewings are grouped to suit the landlord and the occupants. Each viewer is screened before an appointment is confirmed.

03

Offer and referencing

Offers arrive with applicant notes attached. The successful applicant completes referencing, and a holding arrangement takes the home off the market while checks finish.

04

Agreement and deposit

The tenancy agreement is prepared and explained, the deposit is protected in a recognised scheme and the prescribed information is served promptly.

05

Inventory and check in

A photographic inventory is completed and the tenant attends a check in that walks the same rooms. Meter readings are recorded and keys are logged.

06

Ongoing management

Rent is collected, inspections are scheduled, compliance dates are held on the calendar and the landlord receives regular written summaries until the tenancy ends.

Build the instruction that suits your property

Take tenant finding alone, add rent collection, or hand over the full management of the address. Email rentals@dpzproperty.autos or call +12705007746 and the team will set out the options in plain terms.

Service standards

What stays the same whichever service you choose

The scope of an instruction may vary, but the habits behind it do not. These four commitments apply across every service line that DPZ PROPERTY LTD provides.

Records kept from the first visit

Every property under management carries a file built from the first survey onward. Photographs, certificates, invoices, tenancy documents and inspection notes sit together, which means a question about any address can be answered with evidence rather than recollection.

Communication that ends with a next step

A reply that leaves the reader unsure what happens next is not finished. Whether the subject is a repair, an offer or a compliance date, the response names the action, the person and the timing involved.

Costs agreed before work begins

Where a job requires spend, the landlord sees the figure and the reasoning before the instruction is placed. Larger repairs are supported by compared quotes, and completed work is passed on with the invoice and a short explanation.

The same rules for tenants and landlords

Fair dealing runs in both directions. Tenants are entitled to a safe home and a properly handled deposit, and landlords are entitled to reliable rent and an asset that is looked after. The service keeps both expectations in view at once.
