Don’t know which way to turn? Landlords: If you want to sell and get out, we can help you

Whether you’re an accidental landlord with a single property, or an owner with 100 properties, we’re all in the same boat. And I don’t just mean exasperated by the constant challenges and adaptations we’re having to make.

This year has been challenging. There’s no denying it. With the Renters’ Rights Act coming into play, and new rules to navigate, it’s safe to say that many landlords are unsure of where they stand, and lots more simply don’t want to stand anywhere in the PRS anymore.

Just this week, we’ve reported on: an industry body is urging the Home Office to simplify Right to Rent guidance for landlords and letting agents; tenant complaints skyrocketing; the government correcting its own possession guidance; the number of landlords who have not downloaded the tenant’s information pack (risking fines of up to £7K); and plans for more changes on the way!

No wonder landlords don’t know which way to turn!

As Noel, a Property118 member, summarised perfectly: the “Renters’ Rights Act is a disaster.”

Well he’s got a point. And the stats show you agree. With well over 80 landlords now contacting us every week to sell, your sentiments are the same: we’re out, but we need help.

So how do you sell without overpricing? Not to mention how do you avoid the long delays, price reductions or deals falling apart? And how do you work with someone who genuinely understands landlord property and can get the job done fast?

At Landlord Sales Agency we specialise in selling tenanted, recently vacated and soon-to-be vacant properties in a way that’s realistic, well-managed and designed to complete.

We’re not a traditional estate agent, and we’re not a fast-sale company either. Our focus is simply on certainty of sale at a fair, achievable price.

You can forget costly refurbs too. We have teams to help spruce up your properties with only what’s absolutely essential for your houses to sell, and our process is fast, gets the most achievable prices and allows you as a landlord to sit back and relax knowing it’s all in hand. How?

• We have an extensive database of over 30,000 active, chain-free buyers looking to purchase anything from a single property to a full portfolio, allowing us to quickly match you with the perfect buyer.
• We use realistic guide pricing to create momentum and competition, driving a bidding war on your properties
• And we work in combination with trusted local agents to ensure that your property is marketed via every possible avenue.

What’s more, our team of landlord experts is the best in the country at managing tenants, access and compliance.

In fact, you might also have seen some good news in the press this week – the government has unveiled far-reaching home buying and selling reforms to make the process more reliable, including making it harder for buyers to pull out of agreed deals earlier in the process.

If you don’t want to wait until these changes are mandatory, take a look at what we’re already doing. Buyers pay a non-refundable deposit as soon as their offer is accepted, precisely to secure sales early in the process so all sides have a deal they can trust. And it comes off the price buyers pay on completion so it does not affect the highest offer they will make.

We’re completely transparent. We don’t promise the highest price at any cost. We focus on the best achievable price that actually completes. And it works. On average, all our properties sell in less than 28 days.

As I’m sure you’ve already seen in the news, there is very little interest in leasehold flats anywhere in the UK right now, but we are still having great success at selling whole properties currently divided into flats. So, if that’s you or you have freehold properties in the North of England – esp. Liverpool, Nottingham, Manchester and Leeds – now is a great time to sell while demand is highest.

If you’re a landlord looking to get out of this mess and start afresh, we’re here to help.

There’s no obligation to sell, and absolutely everything to gain.
