With the Isle of Wight property market remaining buoyant, rentals in constant demand and holiday lets remaining hugely popular, important owner, landlord and seller services including inventories and energy performance certificates are in high demand.
A new Island company is helping provide a number of these key services to owners, landlords and direct to estate, lettings and managing agents.
Valerien Property Services offers property inventory services, energy performance certificates (EPCs), legionella risk assessments, microwave leakage tests, professional property videos and other services to private and commercial customers.
Services can be procured either on a single basis or as part of a package which the company will aim to ensure are completed in a single visit, saving time and money for the customer.
Property inventories are a vital tool for any landlord or managing agent to help avoid potential tenant disputes at the end of a tenancy. Full inventories, schedules of condition, check ins, check outs and interim inspections are being offered by Valerien using digital reports that can be accessed by the landlord, agent and tenant(s) online.
An energy performance certificate is a requirement for any house being sold or rented out and is also required for any holiday let being let out for 4 or more months a year. It rates the energy performance of a property from A to G considering the building’s features, construction and energy improvement measures.
Legionella risk assessments review the water system and outlets in a property to determine the risk to residents or tenants that legionnaires bacteria may be present and what action if any is recommended.
Simon Butler, Managing Director of Valerien, says:
“Being an Islander myself, I know the Island is a fantastic place to live and that means there continues to be a large demand for housing, rentals and holiday lets here. There are lots of services owners or agents either need to provide or are highly recommended to have carried out.
“Hopefully by being able to provide private owners and businesses such as agents and housing providers the services they need by making it easier for them, it will help them to manage their property.”
