Gain an edge over other local agents with innovative products available to Southcourt agents:

Southcourt Smart Deposit

A specially tailored Deposit Replacement Insurance product which removes the need for a tenant to pay a deposit, whilst still protecting the landlord against rent arrears and/or damage to the property. This enables the property to be let more quickly, and gives you a competitive edge over other local agents. There is no cost to the agent or the landlord in taking advantage of this scheme. Full details are available in our Agent Support Hub, from where you can request the product directly.

Rent in Advance

Earn additional commission by offering our provider’s unique “Rent in Advance” service to your landlord clients. Some portfolio landlords would prefer a more immediate cashflow than waiting for the rent to drip though month by month, and this product enables them to do just that. They receive their rent before its due, a full 6 months upfront!

Many portfolio landlords find this particularly helpful as it enables them to reinvest and grow their property portfolio more quickly.

Tenant Referencing

You will have full access to our online referencing provider at exclusive rates. Due to our immense buying power, you can access these products at vastly reduced rates. Additionally, we have arranged £100 credit for our new clients which is available immediately against referencing services.

Associated Services:

All of the services are available at trade prices allowing ample room to add your own healthy mark-up.

Through our Agent Support Centre you can arrange the following on a nationwide basis at preferential rates:
