Chestertons Protect

Even with the right safeguards in place, issues can still arise during a tenancy. Chestertons Protect is designed to give you clarity and reassurance, ensuring your income remains protected and that you have the right support in place should you need to recover possession of your property.

If the unexpected happens, you will continue to receive the income you expect, alongside access to legal support where required. Our role is to manage this process carefully and keep everything moving, so you are not left dealing with uncertainty.

Chestertons Protect is free of charge for 12 months when you sign up for our Property Management service.

With the Renters’ Rights Act now in place, managing risk and maintaining income has become more important than ever. Changes to tenancy structures and possession processes mean landlords need greater certainty and stronger protection.

Chestertons Protect reflects this shift, providing:

• Immediate support from the first missed rental payment

• Cover where tenants do not meet agreed rental increases

• Legal expense support to help recover possession where required

This ensures you remain supported within the current regulatory framework, with a clear plan in place if challenges arise.

A tenant’s deposit may not always be sufficient to cover significant rent arrears or damage. Chestertons Protect provides an additional layer of security, helping safeguard both your income and your asset.

Our coverage is designed to ensure that, should issues arise, you are not left out of pocket. We focus on practical outcomes, helping you recover what is owed while keeping disruption to a minimum.

For added ease, we initiate the claims process on your behalf as soon as it is needed. This reduces administration and ensures matters are handled promptly and correctly from the outset.

You will receive clear updates throughout, so you always understand what is happening, what the next steps are, and how your property is being protected.

Our aim is simple: to provide steady support, protect your income, and help return your property to you as efficiently as possible.
