Lettings Agents in Bath vs. Nationwide Agents

Bath Lettings Agents

Bath Lettings Agents

There are many lettings agents providing a nationwide service and they do of course offer some advantages to those looking for a rental property. However, at Reside we feel if you want to rent a property in our beautiful Georgian city, only a lettings agents in Bath can provide tenants and landlords with the comprehensive and peace of mind service that a local agent offers.

So why do I say this?

Well… because we are based in Bath we offer a more personal and tailor made service to tenants and landlords, specific to the city we know and love, than nationwide agents can.

As Bath Based Lettings Agents, We Know (and Love) Our City!

The Royal Crescent BathReside opened its doors in Bath in 2008. Since that time we have managed and let thousands of properties in Bath and the surrounding locales.

As one of the most respected lettings agents in Bath (we’re Bath Property Awards winners!), we know a thing or two about our city. You can’t beat local knowledge and because all of our staff live in Bath and the surrounding area, we’ve an unbeatable wealth of information!

Bath is an incredible place and we love living and working here! Ask any member of our team and they’ll tell you why just as enthusiastically as any visitor who has come and fallen in love with it.

With so much history and beauty literally on our doorstep (we’re based right in the centre of Bath), we feel privileged to be able to let properties on behalf of our landlords and help potential tenants find the perfect property for them, whether it’s a contemporary city apartment in Bath city centre or a sprawling Georgian estate on the outskirts!

We have an extensive knowledge of Bath and the areas surrounding because we operate and live here. It’s difficult for nationwide lettings agents to know as much as we do and in as much depth.

When originally viewing properties, I was welcomed with a friendly face and a passion for the area, this sparked in me butterflies of excitement and an eagerness to reside in this beautiful city.

The company has many years of experience and knowledge of the Bath rental market and we like the fact that they specialise in lettings only.

We Have Close Connections With Bath Businesses

Reside Lettings AgentsBecause we’re based locally, we support other local Bath businesses. We’ve built relationships with many over the years including trades people who know how to get things done fast.

Our network of local contractors help us manage all the properties in our portfolio, carrying out maintenance and repairs quickly and professionally whenever required. Because they’re local to Bath too, we can respond quickly to address anything that needs attention.

But don’t take our word for it! Here’s what people have said about us:

The flat I lived in was a gem of apartment, they have always been very approachable and professional and whenever there was something to be fixed they responded promptly. 

Easily the best letting agent we have used over 7 years and were always very helpful with any house issues.

Since moving in the team at reside have been excellent at helping to resolve any minor issues that come with settling into a new place.

We Sponsor Local Events

Bath BoulesYou might have heard we enjoy boules!

Last year we were one of the sponsors of Bath Boules… a much-loved and long standing boules tournament that takes place in Queen Square each year around June.

We’ve had a great deal of success in the past and have won the tournament several times!

But winning isn’t everything. The Bath Boules tournament is run by the Bath Boules Trust (a registered charity), which distributes funds raised to a variety of local causes. We’re extremely proud to play a part in helping to raise funds 

Events like Bath Boules also helps to strengthen our relationships with other local businesses. We believe we are the best letting agents in Bath but we can’t make this claim without acknowledging the support of the Bath business community.

Nationwide lettings agents cannot commit to local communities and community events in the same way we do.

You Can Talk to Us Face to Face

Friendly Lettings Agents in Bath

We’re not faceless voices at the end of a phone!

For people moving to Bath, you can talk to us face to face six days a week in our cosy and friendly office: there’s no calling someone you’re never going to meet. We feel this provides a more personal service and a solid foundation for us to work with you throughout the period of your tenancy.

If you’re already a tenant in one of our Bath properties, we’re always happy for you to drop by to say hello!

Landlords also benefit from a having a lettings agent on their doorstep… so to speak! All the advantages of a Bath city centre office our tenants enjoy, extend to our landlords as well.

We believe our local presence is vital to understand and appreciate not just the Bath area, but to provide a place that’s easy for our tenants and landlords to reach any time our office is open… sometimes outside of normal hours too!

Lettings agents who aren’t based in Bath can’t offer that!

Even though we didn’t end up renting a place through Reside, Chris and Lisa were so incredibly personable, helpful and welcoming. Would highly recommend and will be heading there when ready to buy. 🎉

The team at Reside could not have done more for me. They supported me throughout the whole process when at times I probably drove them mad. I am now in a lovely home and it’s very much thanks to Lisa and Emma.

My experience with Chris Gray was just perfect. An incredibly friendly individual that really did go above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. The whole experience was genuinely fun which says a lot for a process that can often be stressful! Don’t see myself moving again anytime soon but if I was to, I’d hope it’d be Chris helping me out again!

It has been a pleasure to have been able to do business with Reside Bath. Their people are highly efficient and utterly charming with it. I imagine that they can have few peers. I can recommend Reside Bath without reservation.

Reside were my letting agents for five years and were fantastic. They always looked after me and my tenants and made renting my flat stress free. I’d recommend them as the first choice for letting. I then marketed my flat for sale with them and they were great again. It was a frustrating and long process through no fault of Reside or Lisa, my agent. Lisa kept me informed throughout and was a good listener when things got tough. Thanks for getting me there! Claire

Had great service from Lisa and the team at Reside, while exploring properties in Bath. We were delighted with the flat we found. The process from viewing to moving in was extremely smooth, with Lisa resolving any queries at pace along the way.

Hello, and happy whatever day it is to you when you are reading this! ✨ My move to my new letting property with Reside was seamless. From the viewing, financials, help, and guidance, everything went through kindly, quickly, and with helpful attention. Chris, was especially helpful and I honestly felt prioritised as he could see how much the move meant to me due to being a dog owner. @Chris thank you again for everything, it really is much appreciated. ✨ Reside are instantly contactable and I cannot recommend them enough. I am a landlord myself, and I know the importance of such attention to detail and kindness. ✨ 10 out of 10, cannot recommend enough! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

I contacted Lisa at Reside last week and arranged rental viewings in Bath. It was a seamless process from beginning to end. Lisa was extremely helpful and informative about the city and if I hadn't had an offer accepted on a purchase a few days later, would certainly have taken one of the properties she showed. Lisa was a breath of fresh air in addition to being professional and very knowledgeable about the local market. I can't recommend Reside or Lisa more strongly.
