What's changing in the market?

We aim to keep you abreast of developments in the housing market which could impact your business.

In a short video, our MD Julian Foster takes you through a number of topics, including the extension to the Right to Buy initiative, Build to Rent fund, transparency of letting fees and much more.

You can find it on our YouTube channel, DPS TV, and while you’re there why not check out some of our other videos?

It's worth a watch

Hounded for money and dogged by deductions 

Let ‘Emma’ guide you through our latest interactive Be the adjudicator case study, designed to help you better understand how we make decisions in the event of a deposit dispute.

In this issue, a landlord and tenant disagreed on the condition of the property after pets had been living there.

Can you make the right decision about the case?

Test your knowledge

 

 

 

10 out of 10!

To get better at what we do, every month we call some of our customers back and ask them how we’re doing.

We ask them to rate how helpful and polite their advisor was and how fully we resolved their query.

We’ve had some fantastic feedback during May with over half our customers rating their advisor a fantastic 10 out of 10 for both questions.

We’re really proud of our team, and we’re working hard to maintain the high standards you expect.

See the results for May
