How important is it for you to maximise your rental return? Are you confident your agent gives you fantastic service and professionally manages your asset? Changing agents and maximising both returns and service could not be easier!!
Letting agents are a lot like banks.
Once a landlord has signed up with an agent, they often don't change; it's too much hassle. When the agent is so entwined with the legal paperwork and the tenancy, it's easier to leave things as they are. But this can mean that many landlords are tied to an agent they're unhappy with. Whether it's a lack of communication, maintenance problems or rent arrears, a landlord will put up with a lot before reaching their final straw and switching to a new agent.
We don't think that this is good enough!
In reality, switching agents isn't so bad. It does not need to be a stressful process and it can be really straight forwards! We have a number of landlords shifting to us to take advantage of our current offer of 6 months property management for free! The take up has been good and we are moving landlords across to us without hassle! It is amazing how many landlords and tenants are currently putting up with substandard service and results!
You shouldn't feel that you have to wait until the tenancy ends or something awful happens to switch. If you feel that the service that you've received has been anything short of incredible, you are able to change agents. We can help you do this!
Of course, a contract between you and your agent will be in place, and you should double-check this. There may be a notice period that you have to give.
We will gladly handle the changeover for you, collecting the paperwork and transferring the deposit funds. We will also arrange to meet your tenant, complete a property inspection and to ensure everything's okay and will renew any paperwork that needs to be updated.
It's actually much easier to change than you might think!
