Tenant Find in Consett and Stanley
Tenant Find for landlords in Consett and Stanley
Consett, Stanley and the villages between them cover a large part of north-west Durham — older terraces, family semis and newer estates. KeyMoment's Tenant Find gives landlords here a fixed-fee route to a referenced tenant instead of a percentage-of-rent agent commission.
£500 fixed-fee Tenant Find in Consett and Stanley
KeyMoment offers a fixed-fee Tenant Find service to landlords letting a home in Consett and Stanley. The fee is £500 per property and no VAT is currently charged. We prepare and market the property, handle enquiries and viewings, administer the application and referencing, and hand a fully documented applicant summary back to you. You retain the final decision on every applicant.
Who this is suitable for
Suitable for private landlords letting a house or flat in Consett, Stanley or the surrounding villages. Not suitable if you need us to hold client money, collect rent or manage the property after handover — Tenant Find ends at tenancy setup and hands back to you.

Rental appraisal
Rents across Consett and Stanley reflect a wide range of stock and streets — a modernised terrace in Shotley Bridge competes with parts of central Durham, while older streets in south Stanley sit lower. We provide a suggested marketing rent from current comparable lettings and property condition; you set the asking rent before we go live.
Getting the property ready to let
Before we launch marketing we ask for evidence of the safety basics — gas, electrics, EPC, smoke and CO alarms. Anything outstanding can be added as it lands, but we do not go live on a property that is not ready.
- In-date gas safety certificate where applicable
- Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR)
- Energy Performance Certificate meeting current minimum standards
- Working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms as required
- Clean, presentable condition with any known repairs completed
Marketing and enquiries
Photography-led particulars pitched at the tenant profile the property realistically suits — local families, key workers, and commuters into Newcastle or Durham. Portal exposure is confirmed in writing at instruction.
Viewing coordination
Viewings are booked by appointment. Access and key handling are agreed with you in writing before marketing goes live. We work around any current occupier on reasonable notice.
Applications, referencing and your decision
Each shortlisted applicant is put through identity, Right to Rent, income affordability and previous tenancy checks with an established referencing provider. Guarantors are referenced on the same basis where used. Decision criteria are documented and non-discriminatory.
Once referencing is complete we send a written applicant summary. The landlord retains the final decision on every applicant. We do not accept or reject tenants on your behalf.
