A fair service for tenants

Are you a tenant looking for a good quality property to rent in Nottingham?

You’ve come to the right place.

At Able Property Trust, we’re passionate about protecting the rights of tenants and supporting those many landlords in Nottingham who provide high-quality accommodation.

For the past 18 years, we have built up an amazing network of contacts and now have more than 200 properties in and around Nottingham on our books on either a tenant find or full management basis. The level of service we provide means that we have many tenants who prefer to let through us and a high number of word of mouth recommendations.

 

  • We have DASH accreditation in recognition of our high standards as landlords
  • We were one of the first letting agents in the region to be recognised as a Safe Agent
  • We are members of the Property Ombudsman Scheme
  • We have an excellent relationship with the Tenants’ Voice, an organisation championing the rights of tenants in the UK
  • We have a dedicated property maintenance team to ensure that any problems are dealt with immediately
  • All of our properties have appropriate safety checks and certificates
  • You can choose to pay a conventional deposit – to be held by mydeposits, a government-authorised tenancy deposit protection scheme – or pay a one-off, non-refundable payment of one week’s rent + VAT to flatfair deposit-free renting scheme (if your landlord has signed up) – click here to find out more

“We would both like to thank you for being an excellent landlord over the eight years we have rented from you and we will happily recommend you to anyone who is looking for a home.”
