Property Management in Nottingham
TMS Management Solutions is a Derby-based letting and property management company that provides full management for landlords with properties in Nottingham city centre and the areas just outside it. TMS has managed rental properties for more than 10 years and looks after hundreds of properties across Derby and Nottingham.
TMS works with landlords who want one team to take care of the day to day running of their property: tenants, rent, repairs, inspections and safety checks. The phone gets answered, repairs are dealt with straight away, and landlords who join tend to stay, whether they own one property or a whole portfolio.

Who is TMS's Nottingham property management for?
TMS's Nottingham service is for landlords who want full management rather than doing it themselves, whether they own one rental property or many. Some of TMS's landlords own a single property, and some own between 15 and 30.
You do not need to live nearby. Around half of TMS's landlords live outside the area, and some live overseas. If you cannot get to your property every time something needs looking at, TMS's team does it for you.
TMS also manages properties across Derby. See our property management in Derby service.
What does full property management with TMS include?
Full management with TMS means one service covering the day to day running of your rental property, rather than a menu of add-ons. It includes:
-
Routine property inspections
-
Routine repairs arranged and managed
-
Out-of-hours emergency maintenance
-
Annual compliance checks covering gas safety, electrical safety (EICR) and EPCs
-
Serving notices
-
Rent increases
For full details of what you pay, see our fees page.
What is a rent review?
A rent review is an appraisal of your rental property, or every property in your portfolio, with an honest view of what each one should be renting for. TMS carries out rent reviews for landlords in Nottingham and Derby.
The team looks at your houses, flats and HMOs and tells you where the rent should be. Some landlords have not reviewed their rents in years, while others have pushed them so high that properties sit empty. If you own several properties, see how TMS works with larger portfolios on our portfolio landlords page.
How do I move my Nottingham property to TMS?
Moving to TMS takes one email from you. TMS deals with your current agent, your tenants and the deposits, whether you are moving one property or several.
-
You send one email authorising the move.
-
TMS contacts your current agent and your tenants.
-
TMS transfers the tenancy deposits and the paperwork.
-
If your current agent is slow to respond, TMS comes back to you and keeps pushing the move through.

Do Nottingham landlords need a property licence?
Most do. Nottingham City Council runs three licensing schemes: selective licensing for most privately rented homes in designated parts of the city, additional licensing for smaller HMOs across the whole city, and the national mandatory licence for larger HMOs.
TMS makes HMO and selective licence applications on behalf of the landlords it manages. See our landlord compliance page for more on how TMS keeps properties compliant.
How does TMS keep Nottingham properties let?
TMS starts marketing a property as soon as a tenant gives notice, and gets it decorated and cleaned if it needs it, so the next tenant can move in quickly. Properties are advertised on Rightmove.
TMS also sets realistic rents, so properties are not left empty waiting for a tenant at a price the market will not pay. A rent that keeps the property let earns more than one that leaves it empty.
Why do landlords choose TMS?
Landlords choose TMS because the phone gets answered, repairs get done and the people running it are landlords themselves.
The phone gets answered
TMS is not a nine to five service. Landlords can reach the team when something needs sorting.
Run by landlords
TMS was founded and is run by experienced landlords. They know what an empty month costs and manage your property the way they manage their own.
Landlords stay
Some of TMS's landlords have been with the company since it started more than 10 years ago. Most of the few who have left did so because they sold their properties.
Is TMS the right letting agent for your Nottingham property?
TMS is a strong fit if you own rental property in Nottingham, want one team to take care of the day to day running, and value a phone that gets answered. Tell us about your property and the TMS team will call you back the same day.
Frequently asked questions
Which areas of Nottingham do you cover?
TMS manages properties in Nottingham city centre and a few areas just outside it. If your property is elsewhere in the Nottingham area, tell us the postcode and we will tell you straight away whether we cover it.
Can you manage my Nottingham property if I live overseas?
Yes. Some of TMS's landlords live overseas and around half live outside the area. TMS handles the day to day running of the property, so you do not need to be nearby.
How long does it take to switch letting agent?
Switching starts with one email from you. TMS then deals with your current agent, your tenants and the deposits. How long it takes depends on your current agent, and TMS keeps pushing it through if they are slow.
What happens after I get in touch?
The TMS team calls you back the same day. You talk through your property or portfolio, and TMS tells you honestly how it would manage it. There is no pressure and no obligation.
