Taking the stress out of letting your property

 Lettings

In recent years legislature has made property letting far more complicated. These changes mean that most properties now require an AST (Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement) – and with this go more responsibilities for the landlord. 

Changes to the deposit handling system mean new legal requirements in registering and holding any deposits have to be strictly adhered to. And there is of course, the normal logistics of arranging viewings – references and monies transfers.. 

Whether you have one property to rent or many – there is a lot to do – and with property lettings it usually has to be done quickly. 

With many years of experience, the friendly Personal Agent Lettings & Management team are there to help. 

Setting the rent level

Through their experience in the area, the team can advise you on the best rental value for your property. They can also assist with decisions on ‘better furnished or unfurnished’. They will also suggest any improvements you can make to maximise the rental value. Dealing with Relocation companies on a regular basis, the team will endeavour to secure a corporate let where possible.

Viewings

Whether there is an existing tenant in the property or it is empty – they can arrange viewings. 

Negotiations

We all hope prospective tenants offer will be the asking rent – but sometimes a little negotiation may be needed – The Personal Agent team can act on your behalf. 

Contracts – Deposit Schemes - References

Yes lots of it and needed quickly. Obtaining references from previous landlords or employers – and understanding what they are actually saying. Tenancy Agreements. Deposit handling. Money transfers. Lots to do and, usually so little time – the team know their way around this process efficiently – professionally and effectively. 

Check-Ins

In order to assess any damage done to your property at the end of a tenancy, it is usual you undertake a check-in – providing an inventory of condition of the properties contents and decoration – which both the tenants and landlords must agree. 

SO – your property is now let – and with the help of The Personal Agent – Lettings team – it’s all gone as smoothly as possible. The Personal Agent can also assist if there are any deductions to be made from the deposit at the end of the tenancy.

Taking the strain out of property letting

 Management

Your property has been let – and hopefully that is the last you hear until the tenancy renewal is due – but any landlord will tell you it is never quite like that. 

Rent Collection

Checking that the rent is received as per the tenancy agreement – and advising immediately if not. 

Appliance Checks

There is a legal requirement in the UK that gas installations at a rented property must be checked annually by a Gas Safe engineer. The team can arrange this for you – and advise of any resultant repairs needed. 

Maintenance & Cleaning

During most tenancies – things break – it’s as simple as that. Maybe an appliance – maybe a water leak. The tenant needs a contact to report this to and who can then arrange the necessary repairs. Its is usual for the previous tenants to undertake an end of tenancy clean – but they may ask the landlord to arrange this for them – also there are times during a long void – or after maintenance works when a clean is again needed – just pick up the phone and call the team. 

Check-Outs

As with check-ins – an inventory to confirm the condition of contents and decoration at the end of a tenancy – showing you the landlord to determine if you feel any ‘damage’ – over and above wear and tear - has been caused during the tenancy. 

My Property Is Not Rented - But It's Empty

More and more people are working away from their homes - and some for extended periods of time. Perhaps you have a propety elsewhere and chose to split your time between residences. Maybe you are going on an extended holiday. Who looks after your property when you are not there?

Things can happen to your property in your absence - storm damage - water leaks - break-ins - power cuts. The outside look of a property is often a tell-tale sign for burglars - are the windows clean - is the lawn mowed. 

You may be fortunate enough to have friends or relatives who can check, but you may not be aware that should an incident occur in your absence you may not be covered on your insurance unless you can prove that the house has been regularly checked.

The Personal Agent Lettings & Management team can provide services to ensure that your property is regularly checked - arrange cleaning - arrange gardening - arrange repairs - OK they cannot stop storms or burglars sadly - but they can check that seucirty lights are working properly.

Interested? - then give them a call.
