With over 44 years in Leeds, Pickard Properties has established itself as arguably the leading student landlord in the city. A family business, we're hugely proud of the reputation we have built on account of both the quality of our student houses in Leeds and also the lengths we go to ensure a great service for our tenants.
In 2012 and 2013, that reputation was given independent verification at the Leeds University Union Landlord Awards, when we were voted 'Best Large Landlord' and a recent survey revealed that 88% of respondents would recommend us to other students.
We have hundreds of student properties in Leeds in the university heartlands of Headingley, Hyde Park and Burley, as well as flats, houses and developments for students and professionals in popular residential towns like Morley, Brighouse and Horsforth.
Our aim is to give our tenants the best possible experience and we're confident that our offering makes us stand out even in the highly competitive Leeds marketplace.
Take the quality of our houses to rent in Leeds; we hand-select all of our properties based on the knowledge and experience we have acquired over the years and, as we own all of them, we are personally responsible for ensuring they remain in a great condition. In fact UNIPOL have awarded us 'Golden Owner Status' as all our houses comply with their advanced code of standards.
We're also renowned for the quality of our building conversions, such as the chapels we have converted into stunning split-level apartments in Brighouse and Morley. We were determined to retain as much of the old building's charm and traditional features as possible. The result is two of the most sought-after developments in the area and a spacious and comfortable option for anybody looking for flats to rent in Leeds.
Another reason that puts us ahead of the rest in the eyes of our tenants is our customer care, something we take very seriously here at Pickard. All our student properties have burglar alarms, fire alarm systems or mains interlinked smoke detectors, as well as emergency lighting in the larger properties. We also provide a 24-hour maintenance emergency line, so students can raise issues at any time of the day - and any repairs are usually carried out within 24 hours.
