Advice for landlords
If you’re an experienced landlord or learning as you go, there are several things to always keep in mind. Here are just a few.
Choose the Right
Agent
If you choose to use a property management company, make sure they are reputable. It’s worth checking if the company is registered to a professional body such as ARLA or NAEA, ensuring you receive correct up to date information and have Client Money Protection. Next check out the advertising package, make sure they use professional photographs to attract the best applicants.
Tidy Properties, Tidy
Profits
Research shows people will often decide within the first five minutes of arriving at a property if they want to take it – so make that first impression count! Get the front of your property looking its best. Take a good look, maybe you need a fresh coat of paint? Tidy the front garden, trim hedges and remember to have to have a good clean, piles of leaves and old post won’t be very welcoming.
Be Sure to Decorate
Wisely
Try to see your property as your business, don’t make the decoration too personalised, you need to make your property appeal to all applicants. Try a neutral colour scheme, making the most of natural light with some well positioned mirrors and bring some colour with bright paintings, cushions, or throws – items that can easily be swapped for the next occupier.
