The Problem

The Norwich property market has never been harder for sellers and landlords.

Record numbers of properties listed. Buyer demand softening. Legislation tightening. If any of these situations sounds familiar — there is a way out.

🏚️
Sellers
Your property won't sell — and it's costing you every month
With record levels of stock and buyer demand dampening, properties in Norwich and Norfolk are sitting for months. If your home needs significant improvement works, the pool of buyers shrinks further. Every month means another mortgage payment, another insurance bill, another round of viewings that lead nowhere.
🏢
City Centre Flats
Cladding, soaring service charges — and a sale that will not happen
If you own a flat in Alison Bank, Geoffrey Watling Way or Richard Hawthorn House with cladding concerns, or in Maidstone Road or Greyfriars Way with exorbitant service charges — or anywhere else in Norwich city centre — your asset feels impossible to exit, and the bills keep arriving regardless.
🔑
Probate & Inherited Properties
Inherited a property and need a simple, stress-free solution
Dealing with a probate property while managing grief, legal processes and family expectations is overwhelming. We offer a clean, guaranteed income solution that requires nothing from you — no viewings, no maintenance calls, no chasing. Just reliable monthly income while everything else is sorted.
📋
Landlords
Falling demand, rising costs, the Renters' Rights Act — enough is enough
Declining student numbers are hitting HMO yields. Maintenance costs are spiralling. The Renters' Rights Act 2025 brings significant new obligations. If you are ready to exit the market — or simply need breathing space — carrying these burdens alone is no longer necessary.

"There is a smarter way to protect your investment — without the wait, without the worry, and without selling under pressure. Melanie Estates' Guaranteed Lease Service."

The Solution

Guaranteed income. Zero hassle.
Complete peace of mind.

Two powerful services built for property owners who need certainty — not more uncertainty.

Service One

Our Rent Guarantee gives you a fixed, reliable monthly income — whether your property is occupied or not. No voids. No surprises. No chasing. We take on full management and cover maintenance up to an agreed amount. You keep ownership. We handle everything. Terms from 1 to 10 years — giving you the flexibility you need.

Client Reviews

What our clients say about Melanie Estates

Real reviews from landlords, sellers and tenants across Norwich and Great Yarmouth.

Abbie has been amazing from start to finish. When other agents turned us away, she stepped in, supported us, and worked tirelessly to help us secure our new home. Her communication was clear, her guidance reassuring, and her dedication truly stood out. Melanie agents are the best.

Can't fault the service. Alex and his team are always on hand to help with issues and advise on maximising investments. They have always rented my properties and treated them with respect. All health & safety and legislative requirements — especially for my licensed HMOs — taken care of swiftly. Very satisfied customer!

Great customer service. As a landlord myself I have never had an issue with them charging for silly little things like other agencies do. From start to finish everything ran smoothly. Great knowledge of HMO regulations.

Been a tenant in one of their properties for a few years now. Their response to maintenance problems has been spot on. Never had an issue with them. Very helpful.

Would recommend Melanie Estates if you want that personal service. Great communication throughout — it's nice dealing with the same person unlike the bigger corporate agencies. Would use again for another property.
