Landlord Services by Caseley Estates

Caseley Estates is an independent family run residential letting and property management agency which was established in 1983.  We have experience looking after a range of properties from 1-bedroom flats to 5-bedroom houses, catering for both student and professional lets.

We are trained and regulated by ARLA PropertyMark and the Property Redress Scheme’s codes of practice, which together with our experience in the industry enables us to meet our clients needs. Our background as portfolio landlords has given us the understanding required to successfully look after rental properties, as well as proven itself as a fantastic long term investment. The key to owning a successful rental property is in the management, maintenance and looking after the tenants that live there. It has also become essential to have the correct documentation, the right equipment, and the right procedures in place. Our bespoke property management packages have been developed through our years of experience as landlords to ensure our clients receive the highest standards of care and to make your landlord journey as easy and stress-free as possible! We strive to keep both tenants and landlords happy by always being available to solve problems as quickly as possible, by forming unique relationships with each and every customer. We will make our services work for you, whether you are a homeowner working abroad, a portfolio landlord or a property investor. We are here to help!

Property management:

We believe Caseley Estates’ property management service is the best you will find in Newcastle. From our experience as landlords, we learned from other agents what NOT to do, what landlords actually want, and how properties should be looked after.

Where necessary we will advise on all urgent and non-urgent repairs, recommend upgrades, replacements, refurbishments etc. We also offer to send you videos, photos and/or have a video call with every quarterly inspection if you wish.
