ABOUT US
- Hi! My name is Phil Downs & I run our houses on a full time basis.
- Previous experience includes; Sales, Marketing, Training (in the Drinks trade), Newspaper advertising, Retail Shoe management, & the Army
- Debbie supports the letting business as well, and currently works as a Teaching Assistant
- We live close to our houses & are always contactable
- We have been letting to students since 1992
- We have been “Approved” landlords with the University, at Grade “A” level, for all that time
- Grade “A” covers overall high standard of our properties & our high management standards
- We manage the houses ourselves, ensuring rapid response to ANY query
- We will NEVER use an agency to manage the properties for us
- We are proud that in nearly 27 years we have NEVER had a complaint against us
- We aim to be totally fair with our Students
- We will settle deposits very quickly at the end of the tenancy
- We strive to allow you to live happily, safely & untroubled in the house with your group of friends
- We are always contactable if ever needed to sort out any issues.
- We haven’t put any testimonials on this website as we believe the only real proof is actually speaking to a current or past student who has stayed with us.
- If you were interested in one of our properties please feel free to ask us for the contact number/e-mail address of any one of our current students for their own personal upfront testimonial
- Our son went through University, including doing a Masters, & we feel we have built up a good knowledge of what you will want from your home & landlord support throughout your stay.
- We use a team of high quality & reliable tradesmen who will always respond quickly to your needs
- The most harmonious houses are those filled with friends. We prioritise group bookings. Occasionally if someone moves, perhaps a placement, we will help to find a suitable replacement.
- Groups often stay with us for their whole time at the University. Students often come back to us if they’ve been away. Often our properties fill through recommendations from our existing students.
- Our houses are always filled by January, for the following Sept. term. If you’re interested get in as soon as possible. They go very quickly.
- It is important to note that we only let to Students.
