With over 30 years managing our own property portfolio, we understand the challenges landlords face because we face them ourselves every day.
We started Valentine Lettings because we saw too many letting agents who didn't truly understand what landlords need. We're not just agents — we're experienced property investors who manage on behalf of over 500 clients across Upper Heyford and Heyford Park.
Our landlords like us so much we haven't lost one in 8 years.
We specialise in new-build properties, handling everything from snagging inspections and NHBC warranty claims to furnishing, tenant sourcing, and ongoing management. Our approach is simple: treat every property as if it were our own.
Our proven five-step process ensures your new-build investment is protected and generating income from day one.
Thorough new-build inspection identifying every defect, ensuring your property meets the highest standards before any tenant moves in.
We handle all warranty claims with the developer, logging defects properly and chasing resolution so you don't have to.
Carpets, curtains, garden design and finishing touches. We prepare your property to attract the best tenants and maximise rental value.
We begin marketing before completion, sourcing quality tenants quickly. Our strategy means minimal void periods and maximum rental income.
Regular inspections, transparent financial reporting, maintenance coordination, and full compliance — all taken care of for you.
Specialist knowledge of new-build snagging, NHBC claims, and developer liaison that generalist agents simply don't have.
We're landlords ourselves. Every decision is made with your best interests at heart because we understand what matters to you.
We don't recommend unnecessary work. We manage costs carefully and always provide honest advice to protect your bottom line.
Our proactive marketing strategy begins before property completion, minimising void periods and maximising your rental income from day one.
Gas safety, EICR, EPC, deposit protection, Right to Rent — we take care of every legal requirement so you can relax.
Our retention rate speaks for itself. We haven't lost a landlord in 8 years because we deliver results and genuine care.

"Valentine Lettings managed our new-build from snagging through to tenancy. Zero voids and completely hands-off for us. The communication is excellent and they truly care about our investment."
"As an overseas investor, I needed someone I could trust completely. Valentine handles everything — from the initial snag to ongoing management. I've never had a void period across my three properties."
"Working with Valentine on our Heyford Park development has been a pleasure. They understand new builds inside out, which means fewer issues and happier buyers who know their tenants are sourced before completion."
