Landlord

 What is an online letting agent
An online letting agent is usually an agent that would offer all lettings services online. With the power of the internet everything can be done from the comfort of your home. Landlords can list their property from their desktop or even smart phone by accessing our portal, apply for tenant references and start receiving tenant enquires within hours of listing their property. Tenants now a days like to search for properties when they have time and usually this can be out of office hours where most high street letting agents are closed. The Online service acts as a bridge where tenants can contact the landlord directly 24/7 days a week to arrange appointments. This is an added benefit to landlords as they receive every single enquiry via SMS nearly doubling their chances of finding tenants.

 When is the best time to advertise my property?
Most tenancy agreements have at least one to two month’s notice period allowing Landlords enough time to find a new tenant. If the property is occupied by a tenant you can advertise the property immediately as it can take a few weeks to find a tenant. Most circumstances your new tenant would want to find a property before they give notice to their existing landlord. So, it is advisable to market the property as soon as the notice from the tenant is served.
