The Share to Buy scheme, formerly known as Shared Ownership, has become increasingly popular among property buyers in the UK. The scheme allows people to purchase a share of a property and pay rent on the remaining share, which is owned by a housing association or a private developer. Sandersons UK currently have properties for sale on the scheme.
When selling your property, a price reduction should always be the last resort. An agent should generate comparable reports and compile a bespoke marketing strategy to showcase the property at its best. But, a house is ultimately worth what someone is willing to pay and the market at the time of selling.
It is natural to have queries regarding your rights and responsibilities towards the property. Just because you have let out your property, it does not mean you do not have any right over it.
Keeping good tenants in your rental property is essential for maintaining a stable income and avoiding costly turnover expenses. Tenants move out of their current rental due to various reasons. As a landlord, some of these reasons are out of your control, while others can be managed.
As a landlord or agent, it is essential to keep track of all the maintenance work carried out on your rental properties. This is not only important for keeping the property in good condition but also for ensuring that you comply with the UK Deregulation Act 2015.
All landlords know the value of a good, long-term tenant. It means less turnover on the property, void periods, wear & tear, less stress, more profit and a well looked after investment. How do you find this perfect person though? The answer lies in targeted marketing…
The speed at which a tenant can be moved into a property depends on various factors, such as the current state of the property, the readiness of the tenant, and the efficiency of the agent. However, in general, an agent can move a tenant into a property relatively quickly, often within a matter of weeks.
With demand for private rental properties at an all time high, there are often multiple applicants all wanting the same property. As a landlord, how do you compare them and decide which to choose?
In the UK, we have a robust legal framework that regulates the relationship between landlords and tenants. However, the law alone is not enough to protect both parties from potential risks and challenges. One of the most effective ways to safeguard against potential problems is to conduct tenant referencing before a tenancy starts.
The rent is coming in on time, no maintenance issues have been reported, neighbours haven't complained about anything and everything seems fine- so as a Landlord, why do I need to visit the property mid way through the tenancy or pay an agent to do so on my behalf?
