Demand for rental properties is at record levels as people delay plans to buy their own homes because of the downturn in the housing market. Another reason for the letting market boom is that rather than selling their investment properties now when the prices are down the landlords prefer to let it out and wait till the prices go up again.
We, at Quirke Estate Agents, follow the market and react to the slightest change. We pride ourselves in ability to offer the landlords the most professional service thus enabling them to avoid costly mistakes associated with rented property and time consuming process of showing the property to potential tenants. Repair and decoration costs can be reduced considerably when a quality tenant is found first time round. Moreover, the property will probably be let faster with the consequent reduction in rent loss while the property is left vacant.
Procedure:
After you contact us we arrange an inspection of your property. At the time of inspection we take the opportunity to discuss in detail the demand for the type of accommodation on offer, the anticipated rental value and the marketing strategy required. Lease terms, the preparation of an inventory of contents and a viewing schedule can also be agreed at this meeting. Following instructions we immediately set about finding a suitable tenant. Your property is then continuously displayed on our own website, the major property webistes, scheduled newspaper advertising and through our exclusive network of estate agents. Your property listing can then be browsed by dozens of prospective tenants on a daily basis. A thorough search through our tenant database can produce a number of interested parties. Marketing of your rental property can also include a full colour brochure and a 'To Let' board, depending upon the circumstances. Prospective tenants are accompanied on viewings by our staff and valuable feedback will be provided back to you after each viewing.
Lease preparation:
After a tenant has been approved, our professional staff will prepare the lease at no additional charge. In the case if the lease is broken, Quirke Estate Agents will be there to help make the transition cost-effective & timely.
NOTE: The cost of hiring a letting agent is one of the fully deductable 'letting' expenses for tax purposes.
