🎥 More Than Lettings – Episode 2: Keeping landlords informed

One of the biggest parts of our job is making sure landlords actually know what’s going on with their property.

It sounds obvious, but good communication can make such a difference.

Whether it’s maintenance, inspections, tenant updates or something that needs attention, landlords shouldn’t be left wondering what’s happening.

Simple really — if we’re looking after your property, you should know what’s going on with it.

🎥 More Than Lettings – Episode 1

This was definitely a little outside our comfort zone. 😅

We’re much more used to being out managing properties, speaking to landlords and sorting the day-to-day side of PPM than sitting in front of a camera.

But we wanted to start showing a bit more of the people behind the business, what PPM is about and why we do things the way we do.

So, first up, it’s me and Max talking about how PPM started and why we decided to set the business up in the first place.

We’re probably not quite camera-ready yet… but hopefully we’ll get better as the series goes on. 😂

Welcome to More Than Lettings.

⭐ Another 5-star review!

“PPM offered us a brilliant tailor-made service. Professional, prompt and good value too.”

We’ve always believed that good property management should be flexible. Every landlord, tenant and property is different, so sometimes the best service is simply listening to what someone actually needs and building the right support around them.

Good communication can make student HMO management a lot easier.

One of the biggest problems we see in shared houses is when different tenants report the same issue in different ways, or when nobody is quite sure who is responsible for what.

For landlords, a few simple checks can make a big difference:

• Licence – know the scheme, expiry date and any conditions attached to the property.
• Safety – keep certificates and alarm records up to date and easy to trace.
• Condition – keep clear room-by-room evidence so there’s a proper record of wear, damage and planned works.
• Communication – give tenants one clear reporting route and named contacts.

It sounds simple, but getting these basics right helps reduce missed maintenance, duplicated reports and unnecessary confusion.

At PPM, we put a lot of focus on clear communication and proper record keeping across the student HMOs we manage in York.

If you’re reviewing how your student property is being managed, this is a good place to start.

Yes… we really do check inside the oven 👀

Property inspections might not be the most glamorous part of letting a property, but they’re one of the most important.

Regular inspections give us the chance to see how a property is being looked after, spot maintenance issues early and give tenants an opportunity to raise anything that needs attention.

A small leak, a bit of damp or something starting to deteriorate can become a much bigger — and more expensive — problem if nobody spots it.

At PPM we use InventoryBase when carrying out our inspections. It allows us to record photos and notes as we go, produce a detailed report and keep a clear history of the condition of the property.

It means our landlords aren’t just told “everything looks fine” — they have a proper record of what we’ve seen.

It’s all part of being proactive rather than waiting for something to go wrong.

And yes, that includes checking the oven... :)

A bit more polished than you’ll usually find us… 😅📸

We swapped property visits, maintenance calls and the PPM van for a photo shoot this week.

As the business grows, we’re making a real effort to show more of the people behind PPM and what goes on day to day.

Most of the time you’ll find us out and about around York, meeting landlords, visiting properties, catching up with contractors and generally keeping things moving.

Plenty happening behind the scenes at the moment, and we’re excited about where PPM is heading.

Now back to the day jobs… 🏡

Another landlord’s property improved and future-proofed. ☀️🏡

We have been working hard with our trusted partners at Green Earth Energy Improvements to improve the energy efficiency of one of the York HMOs we manage.

Following the installation of solar panels, the property’s EPC rating has improved from D to C, with projected electricity savings of more than £740 per year.

The new system can also be connected to battery storage in the future, giving the landlord further options as technology and energy prices continue to change.

For us, property management is not just about dealing with maintenance and collecting rent. It is about being proactive, working with dependable local suppliers and helping landlords improve their homes and investments.

A big thank you to Green Earth Energy Improvements and everyone involved in delivering the project.

You can read the full case study on our website.

It has been a very busy move-in period for our student property team! 🏡

We have been working hard to get tenants settled into their new homes, carrying out checks and coordinating maintenance jobs as quickly as possible.

There is always plenty happening behind the scenes when managing student HMOs, from arranging contractors and responding to tenants to keeping landlords updated throughout the process.

A huge thank you to our team and trusted local contractors for all their hard work.
