AI Receptionist for Letting Agents
in Shaftesbury

Friday afternoon. A tenant on Coppice Street reports a window latch broken — they're concerned about security overnight. At the same moment, a prospective renter calls to ask about a two-bedroom cottage they saw listed. ForgeMason flags the broken latch as urgent, contacts your contractor, and books the viewing — without your team breaking off to take either call manually.

Small rental market,
high landlord-managed stock.

Shaftesbury sits on a hilltop with a relatively compact rental market compared to the larger Dorset towns. Many properties here are managed directly by landlords rather than agents — which means when those landlords do call you, they're often comparing your service against the ease of self-management. If a tenant reaches voicemail, or if a potential landlord client can't get through, the scale of the local market means you feel every missed opportunity. ForgeMason makes your small agency operate like a larger one: every call answered, every maintenance report logged, every landlord kept informed — without the overhead of additional staff.

Questions from
Shaftesbury letting agents.

We only manage a small number of properties — is this worth it for a smaller agency?+
Yes. In a small market like Shaftesbury, each missed call carries more weight than in a larger town. ForgeMason's entry-level Capture plan at £67/month means the cost is proportionate. A single viewing booked or landlord retained more than covers it. There is no minimum property count requirement.
What counts as an urgent maintenance call?+
ForgeMason is configured with your urgency criteria — typically no heating, flooding, gas leak, security failure (broken lock or window), or lack of hot water. These trigger immediate escalation to your contractor and property manager. Everything else is logged, given a reference number, and queued for next-business-day action.
Is there a minimum contract?+
No minimum contract. Rolling monthly. No setup fee.
