Practical support for today's landlords
Lettings, managed like the investment it is
Our letting service is built around one number: your return. Everything we do is designed to protect it.
First property or full portfolio, you get the same approach: strategic marketing, meticulous tenant management and reporting that tells you exactly how your investment is performing.
We let and manage property across Bracknell, Wokingham and the surrounding areas every day, so we know the achievable rents, the reliable tenants and the issues worth fixing before they cost you.
Our property management team sits in-house, nothing outsourced. That means responsive support, trusted local contractors and a service that keeps things running smoothly for you and your tenants alike.
Three services, one standard
Every landlord runs their investment differently. Some want full oversight handled for them. Others just want the right tenant, found fast. Choose the level of involvement that suits you. The standard stays the same.
Full Management (most popular)
The complete service. Tenant communication, maintenance, planned inspections, renewals and compliance with ever-changing legislation, all handled in-house. You stay informed through clear, structured updates without lifting a finger. Proactive management that spots issues early, not reactive problem solving after the event.
Rent Collection
For landlords who manage day to day but want the cashflow locked down. We collect the rent, chase what needs chasing and give you clean, clear financial reporting.
Tenant Find Only
Built for experienced and portfolio landlords. We market hard, reference strictly and set the tenancy up legally watertight, then hand over a property that is ready to perform.
How will the Renters' Rights Act affect you?
We've broken down the key changes into a simple, easy-to-understand guide.
Quality tenants, found fast
Void periods are the quiet killer of rental yield. Our marketing exists to shrink them, pairing wide online exposure with targeted local promotion.
Your property goes live across the major portals, including Rightmove and OnTheMarket, plus our own website and social channels, with full visibility from day one.
Professional photography and sharp listings make it stand out. A lettings team that follows up the same day makes it let.
Every applicant is strictly referenced: credit checks, employment verification and previous landlord references. Fast does not mean careless. The right tenant quickly beats any tenant instantly.
Your property, professionally managed
Lettings and property management work under one roof. Nothing is outsourced, so nothing gets lost between companies, and one accountable team answers for everything.
We manage hundreds of homes across Bracknell, Wokingham and the wider Berkshire area, with structured reporting and proactive oversight designed to protect your yield year after year.
We take care of every aspect of the tenancy, including:
- Property inspections
- Prompt maintenance coordination with trusted local contractors
- Tenancy renewals and deposit management
- Legal compliance, including Gas Safety, EICR and EPC requirements
Legislation changes constantly. We track it so you never have to, and you stay compliant at all times.

Frequently asked questions
Rental value depends on location, size, condition and local demand. Our lettings experts give you a free, accurate rental valuation based on live market conditions and comparable lets nearby, plus straight advice on the changes that would genuinely lift your rent, and the ones that would not pay back.
We market across Rightmove and OnTheMarket, plus our local tenant database and social channels. Then we filter hard. Credit checks, employment verification and previous landlord references on every applicant, because the cost of the wrong tenant always exceeds the cost of waiting a week for the right one.
On Full Management, we handle maintenance promptly through trusted local contractors, keep you informed and seek approval for larger works. Small issues get fixed while they are still small. That protects your property, your tenant relationship and your repair bill.
Yes, and proactively. We track Gas Safety Certificates, EICRs and EPCs and act ahead of renewal dates, and we make sure deposit registration, Right to Rent checks and tenancy agreements meet every legal standard. You hear from us before deadlines, not after them.
Absolutely. Many of our landlords live elsewhere in the UK or overseas. Full Management means we handle everything locally, send you clear, structured updates and look after your property as if it were our own. Distance changes nothing about the standard.

What our clients say about us

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a wonderful experience with Sears. Every person we dealt with brought something special to the experience, their own kindness, professionalism, and personal touch. It was clear that everyone genuinely cared and took pride in providing excellent service. I did have a particular favourite, but I won’t mention them as it wouldn’t be fair when each person we met had their own unique qualities that made the whole experience so positive. I will keep them on their toes, wondering who that person might be 😉 A fantastic team, and I would happily recommend Sears to anyone looking for great service and people who truly care. Wishing the entire Sears team only the best”
