Full profileProperty listings
Stockwood Lettings is an Independent Letting Agency. We work closely with our landlords and tenants alike and we make it our priority to match the right person to the right house. That’s why at a valuation we will ask about the neighbourhood and neighbours, as it would be wrong to install a young family in an area predominantly occupied by the elderly. Fifteen years in this industry has taught us how important it is to get this right.   All members of staff have excellent local knowledge, all being brought up in the local area. They are happy to advise on areas and have a good grasp of local schools and services. Stockwood Lettings has been part of the  West Dorset Landlords Accreditation Scheme , since 2007. The aim of this scheme is to help and guide landlords in ensuring that the ever changing legislation is easily understood. There are seminars throughout the year, and useful newsletters full of information and updates on any changes in practice. We would happily recommend landlords to enrol on this register.
