Know an overseas landlord who needs help with a London property? A few questions can make your introduction more useful. Earn up to £3,000* per eligible referral: https://www.pacificestates.co.uk/referral. *Subject to eligibility and referral programme terms. Reward varies and is not guaranteed. Start by asking what support the owner needs and whether they welcome an introduction.
Start with the problem they want solved
Instead of asking only whether they need an agent, ask which property tasks are difficult to arrange from abroad. Is it organising repairs, understanding inspection updates or keeping track of rental payments?
This helps the owner explain their priorities in their own words. You do not need to assess the property or choose a management package for them.
Ask these four practical questions
Which property would they like to discuss? Confirm the address and whether it is currently occupied, vacant or being prepared for a new tenant. Keep the introduction focused on the owner's current plans.
What help are they looking for? Ask whether they want a tenant found, ongoing management or a conversation about selling. If they are unsure, say so rather than selecting a service on their behalf.
Who should Pacific Estates contact? Check the owner's preferred email or telephone number and a suitable time to speak. For someone abroad, include their time zone so an enquiry does not arrive at an inconvenient hour.
Are they happy for you to share their details? Ask permission before completing the referral form. Share only what is needed for the introduction. There is no need to send passport copies, bank details or tenancy files.
Give the owner a useful next step
Pacific Estates' lettings and management services include inventories, rent collection, inspections and maintenance coordination. The owner can discuss which responsibilities they want help with and agree the service scope with the team.
A clear introduction gives that conversation a starting point. It does not commit the owner to appointing Pacific Estates.
Check the reward before relying on it
The published referral programme says payment follows completion of the qualifying transaction and receipt of fees by Pacific Estates. Sending a name alone does not mean a reward is due.
Ask the team to confirm your eligibility, the applicable reward and the qualifying conditions. Do this before making financial plans around a payment.
Frequently asked questions
What if the landlord already has an agent? Mention this in the introduction. Let the owner discuss their existing arrangement and any intended change directly with the team.
Can I refer someone who has not decided what to do? Ask the team whether the introduction qualifies. Explain that the owner is exploring options, rather than presenting a confirmed instruction.
Where do I start? Submit an eligible referral, or contact Pacific Estates with programme questions.
