How Thanet Landlords Can Get the Best from Their Letting Agent

If you’re a landlord looking to save time and money (and let’s face it, who isn’t?), a good letting agent can be a game-changer.

Building a Strong Relationship with Your Letting Agent: Tips for Landlords

• Before you sign up for services, read your agency agreement and be clear about what you’re getting. If there’s anything you’re unsure of, speak up so you start out on the right footing.
• Discuss the level of contact you would like with your agent and how involved you want to be with decision-making.
• If you’re given advice that you don’t understand, ask questions.
• Outline your long-term strategy so that your agent can best advise you about issues such as redecoration and refurbishments.
• If there have been any past maintenance issues or problems with neighbours, be clear so the agent can be on the lookout for potential problems.
• Remember, letting agents are professionals. Don’t expect them to act unreasonably on your behalf.
• Discuss the history of the property. For example, if it’s the home you grew up
