The National Residential Landlords Association has agreed a new partnership with home improvement platform Checkatrade.
The tie-up means NRLA members can sign up for Landlord Services by Checkatrade, a team that seeks out the best matched tradespeople for repair, maintenance and upgrades for landlords’ rental homes.
NRLA members can register for a preferential first year offer and there is no subscription fee for the initial three months after signing up. For the remaining nine months, NRLA members who have registered with Checkatrade pay a preferential £2.99 + VAT per property per month. That’s a saving of 75% on the normal subscription.
Landlord Services by Checkatrade coordinates quotes and service appointments on behalf of landlords.
NRLA chief executive Ben Beadle says: “Checkatrade is a business which believes in helping good landlords to deliver high quality accommodation to their tenants.
“This partnership means NRLA members can get the best possible quote for maintenance, repairs and upgrades in a quick, efficient manner.
“We welcome the chance to work with Checkatrade and are excited about the benefits this new arrangement provides to our membership.”
And Checkatrade chief executive Jambu Palaniappan adds: “Checkatrade is committed to making home improvements easy and high-quality. So we’re delighted to join forces with the NRLA to offer their members low-cost access to our new service dedicated to landlords.
“The initiative will also generate more jobs for the hard-working tradespeople on our platform. We can’t wait to get started.”
