Headed up by Simon Reed, Sheridan Inventory Services was established (as Sheridan Landlord Services) in 2010 and became a full time business in 2011, following a planned career change from a senior management role in the logistics industry.
The inspiration for the business was that, as a property landlord, Simon had noticed great inconsistencies between the inventories being provided for different properties in different areas. The only common factor was a lack of detail! There was clearly a place in the market for a more comprehensive, detailed and professional offering.
The business has grown to encompass a small team, all sharing a similar outlook, with many years of experience as landlords, property restorers and investors. This experience gives us a great depth of understanding of the property market and also of what a useful inventory should be.
From the outset it was determined that a successful independent inventory business must have certain principles:
- The highest level of detail and accuracy in reporting
- An authentic property specific description of all properties in inventories
- Accessible, unambiguous, user-friendly products
- A clear focus on the function and purpose of an inventory or check out report
- Absolute reliability
- Highly dependable levels of service at times suited to business demands
- Positive and constructive relationships with the client base
- Clear and precise communications
- An open and honest approach to resolving issues
- A preparedness to support our clients through issues arising from adverse check outs
- A detailed understanding of all aspects of the lettings industry
- A competitive but straightforward price structure
By keeping these principles as a bedrock Sheridan Inventory Services has become a successful and highly respected regional independent inventory company.
We now provide a service second to none in the West Yorkshire area. Our growth has primarily been driven by a very satisfied and loyal client base and their unqualified recommendation of our services to other agents in the sector.
We have seen a lot of things over the years, but we know we haven’t seen everything and maintaining an open-minded approach, combined with our experience, allows us to provide a highly flexible, versatile and adaptable level of service and product range.
