Property is a topic that is close to nearly everyone's heart. It is the largest investment we make. The one most hedged around with complications and issues both practical and emotional. 

For those of us who for one reason or another become involved in renting property - perhaps because we have had a job move and can't, or don't want to, sell or to develop an investment opportunity - it seems to get yet more complex.

Gary Preston and Aidan Forth, partners in Annabel Church Lettings, knew from their collective experience that much of this complexity was unnecessary. They set up Annabel Church Lettings in 2008 based on their belief that taking the worry out of the letting process would be a winning formula in a market place more focussed on the process than the customers. Taking away the landlord's concerns over getting a consistent return from their properties and providing reliable and transparent professional support that makes it easy to do business has proved to be even more popular than Gary and Aidan imagined.

The key feature in their business proposition is their 'Perpetual' management services for landlords. Uniquely in this region, this provides landlords with guaranteed income. Annabel Church enables landlords to choose to protect their income for a period of 5 years- no more tenant arrears or worrying about when the next tenant is going to be found, especially over the Christmas period! They assure consistent payments for the term of the contract.

Together with a refreshingly 'can do' approach to the business which puts their landlord clients, some with 100's, some with just one property, in pole position, this has led to strong growth in their market share - and many more relaxed landlords.

Gary and Aidan have just re-launched their web site at www.annabelchurch.co.uk and it is sure to become a must visit site for existing and aspiring landlords in the Shropshire area and beyond as it offers valuable free information vital to landlords.
