Why choose Rise to let your property?

Commission Fees

Rise Lettings' fees are payable only when a suitable tenant is found and, if managed, on receipt of the monthly rent. This means that we only get paid if we do our job. Our fees are highly competitive in the local and wider market. In addition, independent Customer Satisfaction surveys show higher results than most of our more expensive competitors.

Access to Corporate Tenants

We have strong relationships with relocation companies as well as the major employers within the region. We proactively contact them when we receive instructions for new properties which we feel may be of interest to their clients. In return, these companies forward the details of new clients and employees on to us when seeking accommodation. Recent clients have included employees from the Armed Forces, Caterpillar and the NHS.

Expert Advice

It takes skill and expertise to negotiate a tenancy successfully through to completion and still achieve the best possible price. Through training and experience our employees offer expert advice on both the letting process and your legal obligations as a landlord.

Magnet for Tenants

We are fast becoming one of County Durham's most recognized brands for property rental. With advanced technology and aggressive advertising on all the major portals and in the local press, we have an evolving portfolio of quality prospective tenants just waiting for the right property.

Extensive marketing

A dedicated Marketing Manager ensures that our client’s properties receive maximum exposure across a variety of different media. Rise Lettings often feature in local press, receive additional online exposure on the top property portals including Rightmove and Zoopla and are high on Google search ratings.

Clear and effective photography

Presentation and timing are everything when it comes to renting out your property. Our specialist photographers are trained to take professional photographs as well as write comprehensive, detailed property descriptions, all in just one visit.
