Letting Agent in Guildford - update

Thought I would get fingers to keyboard for the first time this year and give an overview of the lettings market at the moment in Guildford.
Please visit our website at http://www.belvoirlettings.com/guildford for more details about the services we offer.
The demand for properties has seen a sharp rise as soon as the Christmas holidays ended. Tenant demand is as high as ever and there continues to be a shortage of properties to meet this demand. We have 15 viewings booked for Saturday morning, 6 all on the one property! As the sales market struggles and publishes some of the lowest ever figures for December the time has come for many people selling their home to look at facilitating a move via a let-to-buy mortgage. Many of the properties to rent in Guildford are through "accidental landlords". If you are becoming a Guildford landlord for the first time there are many potential legal pitfalls and it is essential you use a good letting agency to help you through this process. Ensure they are NALS registered and members of The Property Ombudsman. Most letting agents will give a free property appraisal, use this as a chance to see what levels of service you think they can offer as well as which types of tenants they normally attract.
Belvoir lettings in Guildford will offer a personal service with regular communication, and keep you informed from the marketing process and interest attracted right through to the end of the tenancy with their fully managed service.
If you are thinking of going it alone be warned of the need for legal certificates such as EPCs, electrical and gas safety plus ensure your insurance is valid when letting your property and you have the mortgage lenders permission.
For some free advise please contact your local NALS registered Letting Agent.We can help with Insurance, Mortgages, Wealth management, finding a rental property and of course finding high quality tenants for your Guildford property
