Why Damage Protection Matters for Landlords

What happens when the unexpected happens in your rental property? Whether it’s a spilt glass of red wine, accidental breakage, or something more serious, landlords need the peace of mind that comes with knowing they’re fully protected. That’s where Damage Protection with CGT Lettings makes the difference.

Getting it right from the start

At CGT, we believe the best way to protect a property is to set it up for success from the very beginning. That means:

• Compliance first – every property is listed in line with regulations, so landlords are protected before a tenancy even begins.

• Maximum marketing – high-quality exposure ensures we source the best tenants possible.

• Flexible packages – whether you’re a seasoned professional, time-poor investor, first-time landlord, or an accidental landlord, we have a service to match your needs.

Protecting your property through the tenancy

Protection isn’t just about policies — it’s about proactive management.

• Every tenancy begins with a professional inventory – an essential record that documents the property condition.

• Our face-to-face check-ins typically last an hour, giving tenants a chance to settle in, ask questions, and start their tenancy on the right note.

• From there, our dedicated Property Managers and Inspectors monitor standards, carry out regular checks, and keep communication open.

Innovating for the future

We’re constantly looking at ways to improve property care. For example, we’ve begun installing condensation meters in some properties. Why? Because by tracking moisture levels, we can help tenants adjust living habits before condensation turns into costly maintenance issues. Small innovations like this protect landlords and tenants alike.

Why Damage Protection is essential

Even with the best tenants and proactive management, accidents and unforeseen issues can happen. Our Damage Protection policy ensures:

• Accidental damage is covered

• Malicious damage is resolved quickly

• Theft can be dealt with effectively

This means landlords aren’t left out of pocket and properties remain in excellent condition.

Questions to consider

• Do you have a plan in place for when the unexpected happens?

• Are your tenants supported in keeping your property in the best possible condition?

• How are you making sure your property investment is future-proofed against both accidents and everyday living challenges?

At CGT Lettings, we’re proud to offer landlords more than just a service — we deliver peace of mind, innovation, and complete protection.
