Salisbury Plain Property Management

Salisbury Plain has no flats. The 2021 count put separate houses at 86.2% of its occupied dwellings, with the remainder semi-detached homes or townhouses, and almost two in three homes (64.9%) had three bedrooms. That makes most rentals here a freestanding house with a garden, a driveway, fencing and often a shed, and those outdoor items cause a large share of the repair calls.

Gutters full of leaves, a downpipe dumping water beside the footings, an ageing hot-water unit or a fence that leans after winter are cheap at the start and dear if they are left. Spotting them is the job of our four yearly inspections, and after each one you get a report with photos attached. On taking over a house, we inspect it alongside you and rank its fixes from urgent to optional, with quotes from tradespeople we use.

Some homes here are semi-detached or in a small group with a community corporation. Where there is one, we work with its manager, report common-ground problems to that corporation, and supply tenants with its by-laws. We clear council rates, SA Water accounts and any levies out of rent receipts, and add no admin charge for doing it. Ahead of booking work the planning rules might catch, such as a carport, a verandah or a granny flat, we raise it with you; the address can be checked on PlanSA.
