Bourne's refreshing approach...
  • paragraph

    Our tailored service
    We understand that different landlords have different needs.

    Our aim is to deliver a service that's right for each of our clients and one that meets those needs.

    We want to take away all the stresses and strains associated with letting property. Our in-house property management team will ensure the financial elements remain up to date and they will deal with any problems that the tenants may have. This gives our landlords confidence that they are in good hands.

    Bourne offer three management levels of service depending on how involved you would like to be with the lettings process. The majority of our landlords tend to opt for our fully managed service which we hope to be hassle free and where Bourne act on your behalf as liaison with the tenants. We have put together a summary chart which we hope you find useful. However if you would like to discuss the service options in more detail, please contact us to arrange a valuation.

    We believe in being completely transparent with Tenants regarding their rights and responsibilities.
  • paragraph

    Health and Safety
    Your Landlord/s and Letting Agents have a responsibility to ensure the property you live in is free from health hazards and safety risks.

    Bourne Estate Agents work closely with our Landlords to ensure they are aware of their legal responsibilities and are kept informed of any changes to legislation regarding health and safety. Below are some of the key areas you should check regarding any property you are considering renting:

  • paragraph

    Energy Assessments - EPC
    From 1st October 2008 all landlords in England and Wales are required by law to provide their new tenants with an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). A Landlord is responsible for providing a valid EPC whether they are managing the property themselves or using an Agent.
  • paragraph

    Gas Regulations
    Landlords must comply with the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 and carry out all work and maintenance via a Gas Safe registered engineer. They are also legally responsible for arranging an annual gas safety check, and certificates must be provided to the Tenant and Agent and retained for at least 2 years.
  • paragraph

    Fire Regulations
    Any furniture left in the property must comply with the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988 (as amended in 1993). These relate to the provision of upholstered furniture. If any furniture does not comply with the regulations and carry an appropriate label, it should be removed and/or replaced.
  • paragraph

    Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm Regulation
    Required as a minimum to have at least one smoke alarm installed on every storey of their property and a carbon monoxide alarm in any room containing a solid fuel burning appliance. Thereafter, the Landlord is responsible for ensuring the alarms are in working order at the start of each new tenancy.
  • paragraph

    Legionnaires' Disease
    Legionnaires' disease is a form of pneumonia which can potentially be fatal, especially to young children, the elderly or infirm. It is caused by the inhalation of small droplets of contaminated water which contains Legionella. Man-made hot and cold water systems could potentially provide an environment where Legionella can grow. Landlords have a responsibility to ensure the health and safety of their Tenants, including prevention of health hazards such as Legionnaires' disease. Domestic hot and cold water systems which are well maintained, and used regularly minimize the risk of exposure to Legionella bacteria. Other simple controls to help minimize the risk of exposure can include:
    • Flushing through the water system prior to letting the property
    • Remove any redundant pipework
    • Showers which have not been used for a period of time should be run prior to use
    • Run cold water taps, especially where used for drinking purposes, for a short period following holidays or where the property has been empty for a while
    • Prevent debris entering into the system (for example ensure the cold water tanks have a tight fitting lid)
    • Set appropriate temperature controls (for example hot water stored in a cylinder should be stored at 60°C)
  • paragraph

    General Rights and Responsibilities
    We recommend reading the government issued 'How to Rent' Guide which outlines many of the legal aspects to consider when you rent a property.

    The Lettings Team at Bourne will be happy to help you with any queries you have regarding your rights and responsibilities as a Tenant.

      I would definitely recommend them!
      I have recently rented a property via Bourne and the whole process, from start to finish, has been very smooth and professional. ... The lettings market seems particularly busy at the moment and a lot of agents seem to have forgotten the art of customer service - but not Bourne. I would definitely recommend them!
