ABOUT US
Our Mission
Over a decade ago, PH4L was formed. It’s mission was and still is “To provide people with access to quality, affordable homes throughout the South West, whilst still delivering a professional, transparent service for landlords”.
PH4L’s model has proved successful and the business continues to grow. PH4L is a wholly owned subsidiary of a homeless charity working to reduce homelessness.
Our Difference
We believe in transparency and ethics which is why you will find that we have no fee’s to tenants and no hidden fee’s to landlords. We work in partnership with Plymouth City Council, Teignbridge District Council, West Borough District Council, The South West Landlords Association and PATH. This enables PH4L to achieve our mission to provide quality, affordable housing and a first class management service.
Why PH4L
As a member of the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) now known as “Property Mark”, all our staff are fully industry trained. We adhere to the exacting standards set by Property Mark, which ensures PH4L are ahead of the game with regards to current & forthcoming legislation.
You can rest assured, whether you are a landlord or a tenant, you will be in safe hands with PH4L.

Property Mark protect consumers and their money by holding their member Letting agents accountable. Both landlords and tenants benefit from the protection offered by Property Mark membership.
Deposits & Maintenance
PH4L requires a deposit equivalent to at least one month’s rent. As of April 2007 (as part of the Housing Act 2004), the government required any deposit taken to be lodged into one of the approved schemes.
