The Lettings Process

  • paragraph

    Finding Your Property
    Before you start to look for a new home to rent you should take some time to work out how much you are prepared to pay, your preferred moving timescale and the locations that would be suitable for you. When registering with us it is helpful if you can provide as much information as possible about the sort of property you are looking for and the areas that you would like to live in. This will help us to ensure that we don't waste your time by showing you unsuitable properties, and will be able to let you know immediately when a suitable property comes onto the market with us. It is a good idea to provide us with an email address as well as 2 phone numbers so that we are able to notify you about new instructions straight away to try and limit the possibility of you missing out on your perfect property.

  • paragraph

    Securing a Property

    Once you have seen a property that you would like to move into you will need to secure it. In order to do this we will need to confirm the details ie the date you would like to move in, who will be living at the property, rent and type of tenancy.

    It is worth bearing in mind that the rental market is very busy and that if you have found a property that you are interested in it is likely that there will be other people interested in it too. Our advice is to have a careful think and make sure that the property will be right for you but to make your decision quickly so as to avoid the possibility of missing out.

    Once the details have been agreed you will need to pay a holding deposit so that the property can be taken off of the market. This is only refundable if for any reason the landlord changes their mind so you will need to be 100% sure that you wish to proceed with the property before paying this.

  • paragraph

    What Happens Next

    Once the property has been secured all adults that will be moving in are required to complete a reference application form and provide a copy of either a passport or driving license. An independent referencing company will conduct credit checks and take up references from current employers as well as Landlords where applicable. The referencing process takes on average 3-5 days but this is dependent on how long it takes the referencing company to receive replies from the various parties, for this reason it is recommended that you let your employers and landlord know that they will be contacted and confirm that they have your consent for a reference to be provided.

    Once you have satisfactorily passed through our referencing process we will contact you to confirm a move in date and agree a time for you to visit the office to sign the legal paperwork and pay the move in monies.

  • paragraph

    Moving In
    In addition to signing the tenancy agreement and paying the outstanding balance of move in monies you will also need to sign a copy of the Inventory and set up a standing order for subsequent rent payments before the keys are released. If your property will be managed by your landlord then at this stage you will be provided with their contact details for future reference. Now all you have left to do is move yourself into the property and settle into your new home!

      Our values shape everything we do and ultimately the experience you'll receive when you work with us

      Authenticity

      We don't hide behind a stuffy corporate image and are informal whilst remaining professional. We believe in always being entirely straight and treating you as we would a friend or family member.

      Passion

      Helping people move is far more than just a job to us. We love what we do and understand that achieving the results we want to for our clients will often mean needing to work outside of normal office hours.

      Loyalty

      We never forget who our customer is and ensure that we align our interests with yours. In practice that means giving advice that's based on delivering your best outcome rather than any short-term gain for ourselves.

        Reviews 
        We can tell you we offer a fantastic service but you wouldn't expect us to say anything else anyway. We're very proud to be Derby's top rated estate agent on Google and the best way to describe our service is to let our customers speak for us!

      Testimonials from Sellers

      • Seller Testimonial

        Jess Greensmith, 4 months ago 5/5
        AKS did an amazing job at selling my flat...thank you! From meeting Andrew to value the property and explain the service, to Ben, Victoria, Sam and all the team that I spoke with...they provided a friendly, helpful and professional service. I knew the sale was in safe hands...something they secured very quickly. You can really tell they care about the service they provide. The photographs and virtual tour were also of the highest quality. I would not hesitate to use them again in the future.

      • Seller Testimonial

        Zoe Hart, 7 months ago
        Recently purchased my first home through AKS. Excellent, friendly customer service throughout. All the team were great, particularly Sam who was really personable and informative throughout viewings and Victoria who supported me throughout the sales process - Really approachable, quick to respond and Kat hand to clarify any questions I had. Can't recommend enough. 

      • Seller Testimonial

        Sam Gilbert, 6 months ago
        5 stars just doesn't seem enough AKS have been absolutely amazing throughout the whole selling process of our house. They took over from another agent we had been with and within 48 hours of taking it on they had sold our property. They were there every step of the way with encouraging words of support and advice, they always looked on the positive side of things and gave you hope and picked you up when things got tough. Dealing with AKS has been like dealing with friends, you could trust that when they said something was going to be done it would be and they would keep you up to date as to what was happening and when. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them they always wanted to ensure that we were happy and satisfied that we knew what was happening and what the next steps were. If I decide to move again I wouldn't need to even think about it AKS would be my first and only choice of agent to go to.

      • Seller Testimonial

        Holly Bishop, 5 months ago
        I had a fantastic experience with AKS from start to finish. Andrew, Ben & Victoria were all brilliant and with this being the first time I had sold a property, they helped me understand the process right the way through. The sale of the house was a little more complicated than average however AKS proved to be a key link and helped in finding solutions to the issues that were put infront of me. I would thoroughly recommend AKS if you are looking to sell your property in Derby.

      Testimonials from Buyers

      • Buyer Testimonial

        Martin Roddis, 7 months ago
        Brilliant service! Myself and my partner were first time buyers so the whole process was incredibly daunting and AKS managed to reassure us on every step. Ben was incredibly helpful responding quickly to every question prior to our offer. Victoria was fantastic at keeping us updated and acting as liaison between us and the solicitors. I am certain our sale would have take so much longer if it wasn't for there keen timekeeping. Would highly recommend!
