Great property management service – Nick Stockbridge
“
CHG staff were always courteous and friendly and dealt with all issues arising promptly.
Central Housing Group managed our flat for ten years. We were too busy to look after it properly ourselves so it was a relief to find a company that could always find us tenants and who subsequently proved a hundred percent reliable. CHG staff were always courteous and friendly and dealt with all issues arising promptly. I always felt that when problems occurred, such as a boiler breakdown, I could trust their choice of maintenance provider. The fees they charged were very reasonable considering the efficient way they managed our flat. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any landlord who wants a great property management service from friendly, helpful staff.

Guaranteed rent services – Dinesh Rupani
“
your rents are competitive based on the saving offered with agents commissions and administration charges that normally crop up.
It was pleasure to speak to you after long time with regards to renewal of my contract and I am quite pleased to renew the contract to let my property with Central Housing Group for another 2 years. I was quite surprised when I realized during our conversation that you have been managing my property for last 11 years in a row now which shows how stable our engagement have been so far. During this time you have paid me Guaranteed rent services promptly and I have never experienced a period of rent loss that takes away any potential stress from me as a landlord. Moreover, the guaranteed rent amount I receive is competitive compared to the amount I would receive from private rent without the risk of private rent. My special thanks to Jo (my property manager) who has managed the property efficiently and always arranged and necessary repairs at a reasonable cost. Jo has kept me regularly updated with any issues including ensuring requisite certifications are up-to-date. As mentioned, I may well bring another property over to your Guaranteed rent services if the circumstances change with it, and appreciate that your rents are competitive based on the saving offered with agents commissions and administration charges that normally crop up. I have no hesitation in recommending Central Housing Group to others, and wish to thank you all once again for the great service you are offering.

Rental guarantee scheme – Parag Bhargava

In the last nine years, I can say with certainty that I have never had a problem with receipt of rent which can otherwise be a great headache to chase up.
Having recently entered into the tenth year of dealing with Central Housing Group’s rental guarantee scheme, I wish to express my gratitude to you and the whole team for making my job as a landlord so simple and carefree. Your charges are indeed very reasonable and the fact that you are able to resolve any repairs, certifications etc. without me having to run around is an absolute time-saver. I have noticed the charges applied by your contractors for various works, from tap repairs to decoration and new carpets to fence replacements, and can truly say that all costs are very reasonable with quality work, giving me full reassurance that the property is looked after in a respectable manner. As mentioned, I may well bring another property over to your Rental guarantee scheme if the circumstances change with it, and appreciate that your rents are competitive based on the saving offered with agents commissions and administration charges that normally crop up, hence why I have recently renewed for another three year term. In the last nine years, I can say with certainty that I have never had a problem with receipt of rent which can otherwise be a great headache to chase up. I have no hesitation in recommending Central Housing Group to others, and wish to thank you all once again for the great service you are offering.

I have always found the team at Central very approachable and knowledgeable with regard to all aspects of managing my properties….
Dear Sir / Madam, I am very happy to provide a testimonial for Central Housing Group’s property management service as they have been managing my properties now for over fourteen years. I first met David Feld, one of the Directors of Central Housing Group, in 2002 when his services were recommended to me by a local estate agent. We immediately struck up a good rapport and I can honestly say that I have, since then, enjoyed a good, professional, working relationship with all the team at Central Housing Group. Since that first meeting in 2002, I have passed over other properties into Central Housing Group’s property management service and I have also recommended them to my immediate and extended family members who have also let their properties with Central Housing Group and we all continue to be happy with their services. The service we receive is professional and efficient. My rent is paid into my account on time every month and this is accompanied in the post by a detailed rent account statement. At the same time I have always found the team at Central very approachable and knowledgeable with regard to all aspects of managing my properties. I would be very happy to recommend the services of Central Housing Group to other landlords. Kind regards,

Professional letting agency – Mary David Horn

….we would recommend Central Housing Group to anyone looking for an honest, friendly and Professional letting agency.
We have been with the letting agency, Central Housing Group, since March 2001 and cannot fault them. We chose Central Housing as our letting agency because of their professionalism and friendliness when they first came to view our property for rental. We first met David Feld who came across as very approachable and friendly, we felt we could trust him and his Company. He was very honest with us. He gave us advice on what rental we could achieve and what was needed to be done to the property ready for rental. David organised all furniture and kitchen items to be purchased and delivered to the property and the property was let almost immediately. We could not believe how the whole business was made very easy and stress free for us. We continue with a very good relationship with Central Housing and completely stress free. If any works need to be carried out, Helga is assigned to our property and she will notify us immediately. We have also built up a good relationship and it is a pleasure to speak with her exchanging pleasantries other than business. On occasions when we have received an invoice for works, I have asked Central Housing if we can pay over 2-3 months instead of all in one go and we have never been refused. Finally, we would like to add that we would recommend Central Housing Group to anyone looking for an honest, friendly and Professional Company.

Estate agents don’t compare – Gerald Lewin

All the stress is lifted when I deal with Romesh, allowing me to get on with my own business…..
I have been dealing with Romesh and his team for the best part of 15 years. Prior to that I was dealt with by other estate agents who don’t compare to Central Housing. All the stress is lifted when I deal with Romesh, allowing me to get on with my own business, with full confidence that my properties are being looked after, the rent is received with no delay, easy to understand statements and I don’t have to worry about void periods. All in all a class act and a great service. Kind regards,

Fantastic service and prompt guaranteed rental payment every single month and it’s hassle free…..
Dear Romesh, Testimonial – Fantastic service and prompt guaranteed rental payment every single month. The Central Housing Group have been managing my property for over 10 years and the service I have received from them has been excellent. It’s hassle free, which is just what you need from a letting agent. If I ever need repairs doing they are quick and reasonably priced and I receive my rent on time every single month. If I ever have any queries they are dealt with quickly and effectively, there is never a need to chase up as I have had to do with other letting agents. I have no hesitation at all in recommending Central Housing Group to other landlords. Kind regards,

I’ve never had to worry about chasing tenants, or any damage caused, or having to make sure that the property is kept in the condition I expect it to be….
Hi, I’m just writing to let you know about the Central Housing Group and their great rental guarantee scheme, run by Romesh and his management team who also provide a fully managed service. I’ve been with the Central Housing Group for just over 12 years and my property has been rented out through CHG’s rental guarantee scheme with the rent paid regularly, on time and I’ve never had a missed payment. I’ve never had to worry about chasing tenants, or any damage caused, or having to make sure that the property is kept in the condition I expect it to be. All insurances, certificates are up to date and all reminders are given nice and early “what else could a landlord want”. I’m notified of any issues promptly and given the chance to deal with it myself or use their own maintenance team as part of a fully managed service. If I do get a call from Jo (who is always polite and friendly), about any repairs needed, I know that I can trust them to deal with any issues quickly and by their highly competent maintenance team who go about their work in a professional manner and their costs are more than competitive. Romesh, I want to thank you and all at CHG for delivering such a brilliant service and for being so consistent over the years. I know I can confidently recommend you and your team to anyone who may be thinking of renting out their property and from that, I’ve always been happy to renew my contract with CHG. Keep up the good work and I look forward to many more years of business with you. Regards,

Property letting and management service – N Fareed

I thank you and your team for delivering such an excellent service over a consistent period of time…
It was very nice to speak to you recently regarding renewing my contract with you. I wanted to take the opportunity to express how appreciative I am for the thorough and professional property letting and management service you have provided me over the last 11 years that I have let my property to Central Housing Group. During this time you have paid me a guaranteed rent and I have never experienced a period of rent loss despite the property sometimes being unoccupied during this period. Your staff have managed the property efficiently and always arranged any necessary repairs at a reasonable cost. Furthermore I was delighted last year to have benefited from your company’s efforts in securing a free ‘A’ rated new gas boiler. This has improved the energy efficiency of my property and no doubt benefited my tenants in helping to reduce their gas bills as well. Arranging the free boiler clearly demonstrated how you and your company go over and above what would normally be expected of a letting and management service. Once again I thank you and your team for delivering such an excellent service over a consistent period of time.

Property Management by Central Housing Group – Praveen Sawhney

In our 9/10 year relationship I have not had to visit the property even once. That says volumes of the property management service and expertise provided by CHG….
Romesh and The Central Housing Group Team, Further to our recent communication I am glad to extend our current contract for a further period of 24 months and would like to thank your team for the property management service provided with professional efficiency for the past 9 years. I have been with Central Housing Group since May 2007 and have found your team full of professionalism and friendliness since Romesh first came to view our property for rent. I first met Romesh who came across as very approachable and friendly and trustworthy. He was very honest with me. His advice on what rental we could achieve and what needed to be provided in the property to fulfil legislation and regulations to make it ready for public sector rental. Romesh organised all furniture and kitchen items to be purchased and delivered to the property and the property was let almost immediately. I could not believe how he made the whole business so easy and stress free for me. He arranged for all the inspections, alterations etc and since then the property has been fully managed by Central Housing Group. In our 9/10 year relationship I have not had to visit the property even once. That says volumes of the property management service and expertise provided by CHG. We continue to have a very good and honest relationship with Central Housing Group which I find very fruitful and stress free. If any work or inspection is needed on the property we are notified and the said work organised by CHG to be carried out immediately. The rent is paid promptly direct into my bank account on the 5th of every month and I don’t have to worry about the occupancy factor as it is guaranteed by CHG. I am writing to let you know that I am very satisfied with the standard of service provided by Central Housing Group across the leasing platform, from negotiations of rentals to maintenance of the property. I hope to maintain the relationship going forward. I will certainly recommend Central Housing Group to everyone looking rent out their property and certainly looking forward that you continue to look after my property for many years to come. Yours sincerely,

Why letting agents are the heroes landlords need (opinion)
Let’s be honest – no landlords signed up to become compliance officers, legal experts, or legislative gurus. They signed up to invest in property. And yet, the weight of the regulatory obligation that’s landed on their shoulders has never been heavier. And that’s even before the Renters’ Rights Act swept…

Renters Rights Act backfiring, warns leading lettings agency
The Renters Rights Act is proving largely counterproductive. This is according to Knight Frank which says the law – introduced in May – has effectively pushed rents higher. It says that one reason is a shortage of supply as more landlords have sold due to the prospect of tighter margins…
