What makes us different?
Unrivalled Bangor expertise

No one knows the lettings market in Bangor like we do; we are the go-to agency for student lettings and a highly trusted agency for residential property too.  

Experienced in the management of PBSA

We manage a range of PBSA across the city, including studio accommodation blocks and modern apartment blocks with all the mod-cons. This PBSA varies in size and style, as well as what level of service we supply and what maintenance we have conducted on the property. Our accommodation block page highlights just a small selection of the larger properties we manage, many of which we have transformed into stylish accommodation for our student occupants.

In an incredibly high-tech and connected world we offer a wide range of online services geared to making the letting and renting experience easier and more streamlined for everyone involved. Our landlords benefit from our Landlord Dashboard, and our occupants benefit from our Video Tours and Virtual Viewings, both of which maximise the appeal of your property and mean any prospective occupant is able to gain valuable insight into your property 24/7. Our occupants are also easily able to report maintenance issues online, meaning these are dealt with swiftly and effectively by our team with minimal amounts of call outs. In addition, all occupants can make any payments online, meaning distance and time are no obstacle. We believe online benefits such as these will ensure your property is let year after year.

Our staff are fully trained and registered; saving you the cost and hassle of having to do this all yourself. We are also an accredited member of the government backed NALS, DPS, PRS and SAFEagent schemes.

How do we work?

When you choose us to manage your property, we first create a detailed property appraisal (this will be individual to each property if you are looking for us to manage a portfolio) and asset management plan. We can then provide you with proposed rental guarantees and fees. We will also introduce you to our local property portfolio, so you can be fully comfortable with the high standards we expect and maintain. Once you are happy with this, we will provide a contract that confirms what we will do and when and, most importantly, what you can expect in rental return. 

What our management service includes
  • Rent collection and remittance
  • Regular rental statements
  • Extensive marketing of properties across all channels
  • Photo and video creation and editing
  • Deposit collection and securing
  • Periodic inspections of your property
  • Advice on HMO licensing and other regulations as required 
  • Detailed inventory audit for every property 
  • Replacement values for all items 
  • Professional maintenance to the highest standard 
  • Annual reports on any maintenance and improvements required 
  • 24hour emergency cover 

What do we charge for our service? 

Management fees are normally based around 10 – 15% of gross rental income, however this is dependent on the condition of the property and the work required to maintain or renovate it. Varcity’s property management team also offer discounted packages for management of a portfolio of multiple properties. See our price list here.
