Coventry Landlords: 3 reasons why you need a Letting Agency to help manage your Properties.
At Darams, we know the stress that self-managing your properties can cause. Contracts, tenants, credit checks, inventories and legislation are to name a few areas in which you need to be on top of.
In recent years, there has been growth in the private lettings sector, which makes it more important than ever for landlords to seek support. A decent letting agent should be able to eliminate stress for landlords and tenants and make the process of renting a property as easy as possible. Here are 3 reasons why, if you are self-managing property, you should get a Letting Agent on board.
1. Keeps you on top of Legislation
It is important for Landlords to know about all of the key legislation, such as deposit protection, the Immigration Act, as well as health and safety issues, including gas and electrical checks. If you fail to comply with any one piece of legislation, you could be facing fines, and even imprisonment. A decent letting agent will be up-to date on legislation and help you prepare for these in advance.
2. Protects and Safeguard your Property
By employing a letting agent to fully manage your property, you are safeguarding yourself, your property, and your reputation, as well as having peace of mind. Tenants are also assured that they are protected their tenancy and have a point of contact if anything goes wrong.
3. Supports and manages day-to-day Maintenance
Most agents will offer a range of services for landlords. A fully managed agreement also means that the agent will deal with all of the day-to-day issues, like general auditing, maintenance, complaints, and rent collection. A good letting agent can help mediate the relationship between landlord and tenant too if needed.
