"My brother and I have been using Cityred to manage our properties for nearly two years now - between us, we own four properties in the Leeds area. As we're both running businesses, having Cityred to look after our properties just takes away all the hassles of advertising and finding tenants. And when it comes to maintenance issues, they're very flexible. If something needs attention, they'll call me first and if I can do it myself, I will. Otherwise, I'll just let them handle it. At the end of the day, I've got enough on my plate through the week, and at weekends I want to spend time with my wife and kids. So I just let City Red deal with everything - it's very cost effective, and it's great peace of mind."

"As a mortgage advisor, I know the importance of receiving sound financial andbusiness advice. Having been in the property business for more than 25 years, I've come across a number of letting agencies in my day! Cityred not only manage my properties but have also acted as a good source of advice for myself and my clients wanting to invest in a buy-to-let property in Leeds. Its all about expertise - I know I can depend on them to do what they're good at. Their knowledge of the Leeds areas, swiftness in getting properties let and ability to do the job in an efficient and cost-effective manner is why I'm with Cityred and why I have the confidence to recommend them to my friends."

"It's actually my daughter who owns the property, but she lives in Manchester and I'm here in Leeds, so I tend to have the most contact with Cityred. She first dealt with Cityred about a year ago when they helped her sort out a problem with a tenant. Since then, they suggested that she re-do a badly done basement conversion to make it into a more liveable, and profitable, space. They handled all the renovations and it's a much improved space now. Cityred manage the property on her behalf, and it's been a problem-free relationship. I must say, I've always found them very helpful and straightforward to deal with, and they're certainly well placed, with a good location on the university grounds. They're a good, go-ahead company and I would certainly use them again, if we were ever to acquire more property."

"Living over 200 miles away and spending much of my working time abroad, it is essential that I have a managing agent that can deal with all my property related issues in a professional and efficient manner. Finding one is not easy, but thankfully Cityred possess this attribute. This is my second year with them now, and I consider it a small price to pay for taking a huge weight off my shoulders. Their approach shows a good application of common sense. The fact that I hardly ever have the need to call them is a testimony to their good work."
