THE TBLS DIFFERENCE

Landlord support without juggling multiple suppliers.

Property management works better when the people handling the tenant issue can also organise the practical work. TBLS combines management with access to its own property-services team, helping issues move from report to completion with fewer handovers.

Full Property Management

Ongoing landlord and tenant support, property oversight, inspections, issue follow-up and day-to-day coordination.

Maintenance & Repairs

Responsive maintenance with electrical, plumbing and multi-trade capability available through the same company.

Cleaning & Gardening

Regular or one-off property-care services can be coordinated alongside the management of the property.

Tenant Reporting

Tenants can report issues through agreed channels including email, WhatsApp and WeChat, making it easier to capture the right information quickly.

WHO WE SUPPORT

Built for landlords who want practical management.

TBLS is particularly suited to landlords who want one accountable team to manage both the communication and the practical property work.

NEW OPTION UNDER DEVELOPMENT

Guaranteed rent for landlords who want certainty.

TBLS is developing a guaranteed-rent option for selected properties. Instead of a normal management percentage, TBLS would agree a fixed monthly rent with the property owner and pay that agreed amount regardless of normal room-by-room occupancy, subject to the final contract.

TBLS would then operate the property, let the rooms to suitable occupiers and retain the difference between the rent paid to the owner and the rental income generated by the property.

This service is not yet a standard TBLS offering. We are currently registering landlord interest while the legal agreements, property criteria and operating process are finalised.
MAINTENANCE ROUTING

Problems go to the right person faster.

When a tenant reports an issue, TBLS assesses the information and routes the job based on urgency, likely trade and risk of further damage. Electrical, plumbing, locksmith and drainage issues are treated as priority categories where the circumstances indicate an urgent risk.

LANDLORD FAQ

Common questions.

Do you use your own maintenance team?

For fully managed properties, TBLS can use its own maintenance, gardening and cleaning capability so the property is not passed between unrelated providers unless a specialist contractor is required.

Can I still use my own contractor?

Yes. Where a landlord chooses an external contractor, TBLS can coordinate access, keys and attendance. An administration charge may apply per attendance.

How can tenants report maintenance?

Reporting can be handled through agreed channels including email, WhatsApp and WeChat.

Do you manage HMOs and student lets?

Yes. TBLS has a particular focus on HMOs, student lets and properties occupied by young professionals.
