Here at Rettie Lettings, we can provide you with as much or as little support as you need with your lettings property or portfolio. We have a range of management services to help make the process as streamlined and stress free as possible for you. By far our most chosen service is our fully managed service.
In a market where regulations and landlord compliance is ever changing, managing your lettings property or portfolio can be overwhelming at times.
One of the most important decisions you may find yourself making as a landlord is deciding how hands-on you want to be.
What are the key benefits to a full management experience?
Reduces stress
Receiving a call from your tenant in the middle of the night is never ideal, however, emergency situations do happen and it is your responsibility to ensure a fast resolution. A fully-managed let means that your letting agent will take care of these issues instead with their own recommended contractors and tradespeople, meaning that you don't have to be available 24/7.
Handles new and existing legalities
Lettings regulations are updated periodically with new requirements coming into play at varying times / stages to address housing needs. It can be difficult to keep track of where you're vulnerable. If you are fully-managed, you won't need to worry about inadvertently falling fowl of your obligations as a landlord, as you can rely on your agent's experience and knowledge of the sector to handle all of this for you, ensuring you remain compliant.
Peace of mind with your rent
No one wants late rent payments, especially if you rely on that income to pay the mortgage. Lettings agents are well practiced on collecting rent effectively, taking the headache out of the process each month.
Reduces vacant periods
A big concern for landlords is the standing vacant time in between tenancies. A good letting agent will focus not only on finding good tenants, but ensuring they stay in situ for as long as possible. If they do leave, then your agent will be on the case to get a replacement, marketing your property and approaching their database of suitable tenants.
If you just want to sit back, relax and enjoy the benefits of being a landlord, why not look into our property management service?
Whether you own a portfolio of investment properties in need of an extra helping hand, or just starting out with your investment journey and want some support and advice on how to manage and maintain your property, our property management service is designed to give you complete peace of mind.
