1. Accredited by ARLA
We are members of ARLA Propertymark and are one of few letting agencies in Bristol that adhere to a nationally recognised and properly audited Code of Practice providing a framework of ethical and professional standards at a level far higher than the law demands.
2. Client Money Protection
We hold all funds safely with the Propertymark Client Money Protection Scheme . This gives landlords and tenants peace of mind that they can claim compensation should an agent misappropriate their rent, deposit or other client funds.
3. Regular Property Feedback
Our property list is reviewed daily by our Lettings Team, with all feedback formally documented and communicated to you regularly. We provide honest and timely feedback to secure the best tenants at the best rental income.
4. Marketing Kicks Off Immediately
A senior team member values all new properties, with marketing starting immediately. Properties are uploaded to our website and property portals within 24 hours, and prospective tenants are contacted via email or text
5. Dedicated Property Manager
With our Full Property Management service, you are assigned a personal Property Manager to handle maintenance issues efficiently. We conduct routine property inspections, including photos and videos, to ensure high standards.
6. Tax Statements
Landlords of managed properties receive free summary statements of income and expenditure for tax purposes.
7. Thorough Tenant Vetting
We only accept suitable tenants who meet the criteria of an independent referencing company (minimum of 3 references). Landlords are consulted before finalizing a tenancy.
8. Always Investing in Technology
We invest in leading technology to enhance communication with Landlords and Tenants. Our use of Matterport technology enables 3D Virtual Tours for an immersive online property experience.
9. Local Expertise
As an independent letting agent having worked in the Bristol area for over 20 years and with an experienced team, many of whom have been with us for several years, we bring a wealth of experience and knowledge about Bristol.
“Working with Abode has given me a lot of confidence. As a landlord, you don't want to have any void periods. I've never had any void periods in the entire time that I've been a landlord using Abode. […] In the time that I've been with Abode, they've been absolutely brilliant. Nobody there has ever let me down. They've always found good tenants for me and they've been able to help finding the next tenant. They are thinking ahead. They're in advance of my thinking. I have recommended Abode over and over again. “
