Landlords: Maximise Your Rental Income & Stay Compliant
With 20 years of lettings expertise across Greater Manchester. We handle tenant placement, compliance, and void periods — so you don't have to.
Why us?
From renting out a single property to having a rental portfolio, the rental market is still considered a good investment. With an increasing demand for properties and the steady growth of rent prices, being a landlord is still seen as a wise choice above other investments. That said, as much as it pains us to say it, being a landlord now is harder than its ever been. Since the introduction of the Renters Rights Act in 2026, being a landlord has quite frankly become a minefield of legislation. The implications for a landlord, should they not follow the law to the letter, can be catastrophic. Hannon Holmes will guide you through all of this and help take care of your investment. With over 20 years' experience, and being landlords ourselves, we know what landlords need. We are here to guide you all along the way and ensure you are protected and you are receiving a maximum return.
Thinking of Switching Agents?
Our 'Agency Switch' service could not be simpler. It may seem daunting but leave it to us. Once instructed, we will contact your current agent and tenant to let them know we are taking over. We will then make sure that all the current legislation and checks are up to date to give you full peace of mind moving forward. Please don't settle for second best. You've invested a great deal in your rental portfolio and we are here to ensure you maximise it.
Landlord Fees
These fees may be negotiable depending on individual circumstances & portfolio. Please speak to a member of our staff should you have any questions.
Our table shows our most popular landlord services but, as always, we are as flexible as you need us to be so you can choose the services that are right for you.
Complete Piece of Mind - Rent Guarantee with Legal Protection:
Zero excess if you make your claim within 45 days of the first missed rent payment
You receive 100% of the monthly rent owed until you achieve vacant possession. If you submit the claim between days 46 and 90 of arrears, we apply a one-month rent excess penalty.
£1,000+ property damage cover
We cover the legal costs to pursue tenants or other parties for direct physical damage to your property or its contents (disputed damage value must exceed £1,000). Crucially, the policy also pays up to £1,000 on top of the deposit towards damage costs and dilapidation.
Section 13 dispute protection
22% of tenants plan to appeal any rent increase, regardless of whether it’s fair. When this happens, we’ll cover the difference between the previous and new rental amounts for up to six months, or until a First-tier Tribunal decision.
Receive 90% of the monthly rent for up to six weeks after vacant possession
Take the sting out of unexpected void periods with our extended cover. This is contingent upon a successful claim acceptance and the agent re-letting the property.
See Chart Opposite for full cover benefits .....
