Goodfellows Estate Agents are helping to plant trees in the Forest of Marston Vale in partnership with Corporate Greetings UK. 

Landlords of properties throughout England must check that someone has the right to rent before letting them a property. Your basic obligation to carry out checks on your tenants to confirm that they have the legal right to live in the UK has not changed, however the process around documentation has been simplified.

We are proud to have been awarded best overall branch and best lettings branch by the allAgents 2020 awards. These awards are based on feedback from buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants. 

With so many changes on the legisilation surrounding the eviction process we have pulled together a summary of the changes that have occured thoughout this year. 

With winter coming now is the time to check and ensure your property is secure, safe and warm for your tenants. Read through our checklist and get your property winter ready.
