Why landlords switch to us

Paying 12-15% management fee but still having to chase updates? Fees keep creeping up but service doesn't improve.
✓ Our Solution
Transparent pricing from 10% + VAT. No hidden fees. And you get modern tech, better communication, and proactive management.
❌ "Properties sitting empty for weeks"
Void periods eating into your profit. Basic marketing, no professional photos, and tenants take forever to find.
✓ Our Solution
Professional marketing: Photos, floorplans, multi-portal listings. Average time to let: 2-3 weeks. Pre-approved tenants ready to go.
❌ "I have no idea what's happening"
When was the last inspection? Has rent been paid? What repairs have been done? You're flying blind.

What Landlords Say
Real feedback from landlords who switched
"I was paying 14% to my old agent and couldn't get anyone on the phone. Switched to Kaimes Property and now I pay 11%, get a dedicated manager, and can see everything online. Should have done it years ago."
— Sarah M., Marchmont landlord
"My property sat empty for 6 weeks with my old agent. Switched to Kaimes, and they had it re-let in 10 days with a better tenant. The professional photos and marketing made all the difference."
— James K., Leith landlord
"The switch was completely painless. They handled all the communication with my old agent, my tenants didn't even notice, and now I actually know what's happening with my property."
— David T., Stockbridge landlord
"Lower fees AND better service? I thought it was too good to be true, but after 18 months with Kaimes Property, I'm saving about £600/year and getting faster responses than ever before."
— Emma L., Morningside landlord
