A step-by-step guide to letting your property.
Having an empty property can be stressful. Maximise the return on your investment by acting fast in finding a reliable tenant who will pay the best price.
Step 1 Accurate Valuation
Your aim should be to let your property at the best possible price in the shortest possible time. Our managers carry out valuations every month giving us intimate and unparalleled knowledge of property values in your area.
This is why we consistently set and achieve higher asking prices across all our clients' properties.
Call us on 0800 567 5633 or complete the rental valuation request form.
Step 2 Selecting a letting Agent
When choosing a letting agent consider their opening hours, when they will be available to conduct viewings and what kind of marketing your property will receive. These are critical to obtaining the maximum rental value for your property.
The RentWellington letting room is open 24 hours a day. We continue to arrange viewing appointments for each property even when most agents are asleep.
Step 3 Consider Property Management
Property Management can be the key to reaping maximum rental returns on your property. Many tenants prefer renting managed properties and often pay a premium for this.
Instructing RentWellington to manage your property gives you peace of mind that both your property and tenant will be cared for 24/7. Your dedicated Property Manager will look after the general day-to-day management and more complex issues such as emergency repairs and much more. Our 24 hour reception is on hand to manage all possible scenarios. Mortgage interest discounts and standard insurance discounts are just two of the special bonuses we relay to all our property owing clients.
Step 4 Presenting your property
First impressions count, making the presentation of your property critical to a successful let.
Consider addressing any jobs you have been meaning to get done, add a fresh coat of paint where necessary and try to unclutter to make rooms appear larger. RentWellington can take photographs and write comprehensive property descriptions, in just one visit.
Step 5 Preparing your property for tenancy
Before you let your property for the first time you must obtain a professional and comprehensive inventory of both the interior and exterior of your property. This will set out the condition and contents of the property. RentWellington can carry out a professional inventory on your behalf.
Step 6 Marketing your property
To find your perfect tenant you need to give your property maximum exposure across a wide range of media.
When you instruct RentWellington to let your property you will automatically benefit from our unrivalled, comprehensive marketing package, including: exposure online on multiple websites, full colour property details, inclusion in our regular Property Alert campaign, email and SMS alerts.
Step 7 Accompanied viewings
Our longer opening hours are essential to maximise viewing opportunities for your property - in fact over 60% of our viewings are carried out after work and at weekends. Accompanied viewings also mean we can use our expertise to help let your property. We do not hand out keys to prospective tenants. We arrange an unlimited number of viewings, to find you the right tenant.
Step 8 Receiving an application
In a letting only situation, as soon as an application is received we will contact you to communicate full details of an application along with any special conditions to help you decide whether or not to accept.
Step 9 Application accepted
Once you accept an application we will do the following, regardless of whether your property is managed:
· Collect references for the tenants
· Arrange signing of Tenancy Agreement
· Collect moving-in payment (rent + bond + letting fee if applicable)
· Carry out move in inspection
For your added peace of mind, we will hold the bond for you, and lodge it with the department of building and housing on your behalf.
Step 10 Move in day
On Move in day, keys will be released to the tenant and the move in condition report will be signed by the tenant.
For managed properties, we will provide the tenant with contact details of their dedicated Property Manager and our 24hour reception.
Congratulations, your property is now let!
