Landlord information

Professional lettings & property management in Coventry. Since establishing Alternative Estates in 1990, we have built our reputation on providing honest advice, exceptional service and expert local knowledge. In 2007, we expanded into residential lettings and property management, quickly becoming a trusted choice for landlords across Coventry and the surrounding areas.

Today, we manage a wide range of properties and continue to provide a personal, hands-on service designed to protect both your property and your rental income.

Why landlords choose Alternative Estates

We understand that successful property management is about much more than simply finding a tenant. Our aim is to help landlords achieve long-term success through professional marketing, careful tenant selection, proactive management and ongoing compliance support.

Quality tenants

Over many years of experience, we have found that well-presented and properly maintained properties attract higher-quality tenants and help reduce the risk of rent arrears and tenancy issues.

Our professional marketing, detailed tenancy paperwork and streamlined online application process help demonstrate high standards from the outset.

Experienced property management

Our knowledgeable lettings team provides ongoing support throughout the tenancy, ensuring your property is well managed and maintained.

We have developed long-standing relationships with trusted local contractors, allowing us to respond quickly and efficiently when maintenance issues arise.

A hands-on approach

We treat every property as if it were our own. By combining practical experience with a common-sense approach, we aim to protect your investment while ensuring all legal and administrative requirements are dealt with professionally.

Protection & peace of mind

As Propertymark licensed agents, we are committed to maintaining the highest professional standards within the lettings industry. Our landlords benefit from:

  • Propertymark membership
  • Client Money Protection (CMP)
  • Annual independent client account audits
  • Access to lettings compliance guidance
  • Access to professional legal support
  • Membership of The Property Ombudsman Scheme

These safeguards provide reassurance that your property and funds are being handled responsibly and professionally.

Tenancy deposit protection

All tenant deposits are protected through The Dispute Service (TDS), one of the UK’s leading tenancy deposit protection schemes.

In the event of a disagreement at the end of a tenancy, an independent adjudicator can review the evidence and provide a fair and impartial decision.
