No chasing. No excuses. One call and it’s sorted.
Mr & Mrs Clark, Ilkley Landlords
About
Welcome to a personal, tailored, good old-fashioned service.
To start, we sit and listen. To who you are and what you want. Whether you need for someone to look after your portfolio or find a smarter place to rent. Everyone is different and people’s lives don’t fit neatly into boxes. That’s why we take the time to get to know you and your circumstances, so we can suggest the right solution.
Our name is a bit different too. ‘Whitaker’ comes from Brian Whitaker, our founder, who has over 20 years of letting experience across Yorkshire. And ‘Cadre’ (pronounced ‘Ka-druh) means a team of trained professionals, which is exactly what we are.
Three offices across Leeds, Harrogate and Ilkley
We know North and West Yorkshire – we’ve worked here for years. We want to do right by our clients because they’re our neighbours.
We’re proudly independent
We’re not part of some big corporate network. As landlords ourselves, we’ve experienced the faceless ‘factory’ approach first-hand. Our business was born from our frustration with impersonal service and a desire to put customers first again.
We’re not looking to make a quick buck, but a lasting reputation
We care about more than commission. We want to build a long-term relationship with you, being here to help for years to come. It’s better for you and better for us.
We do things the right way, not the cheap way
If you’re looking to cut corners, look elsewhere. But if you believe in doing things properly and avoiding false economies, then we’ll get on famously.
We offer personal, tailored 1-to-1 service
There’s nothing old fashioned about ‘good old fashioned’ service. And we combine it with the latest property search, display and management technology.
Hassle-free service for landlords
We can take care of as much or as little as you like, from finding tenants through to fully managing your portfolio. It makes owning a property less of a pain and more of a pleasure.
Effortless service for tenants
We’ll find a rental property you can settle into, not just settle for. Moving is stressful enough, so we make it easier for you to find and view properties in your preferred area.
Money back guarantee
We practice what we preach. And we’re so confident that our service is superior that we offer a ‘service guarantee’. It’s simple: If you’re not 100% happy, we’ll refund you 100% of your management fees. (Naturally there are a few terms and conditions.)
