The soft launch of the Property118.com Business Directory is coming soon and we’re looking for businesses offering services to landlords to help us with our final tests.

As a result of volunteering you will obviously be one of the first businesses listed in the Directory.  Your comments will also be search engine optimised, thus enhancing your internet presence.  Additionally, we will choose one business to receive a free Gold Business Membership for one year based on the number of thumbs up approvals on your comment and the feedback that makes the grumpiest man in the office smile the most.  All comments will be moderated.

Initial tests have been incredibly successful and resulted in glowing testimonials from the businesses we worked with. However, we now need to run far more robust tests of our Automated Registration Wizard which we are hoping to begin testing by the end of July.

If you are interested in getting involved please comment below. By all means add business name, email address, details of service and contact details and get yourself some immediate exposure on the web-site. All we really need though is for you to leave a short comment and your business name.

We are keen to work with all types of businesses that provide a service to landlords including; letting agents, solicitors, accountants, trades, insurance brokers, mortgage brokers, IFA’s, property sourcing companies and tenant referencing businesses.

For more information about the Directory please click here.

The beta testing of the

Directory Registration Process

is now live

Mark,

Thanks for your request.

We provide a complete service that includes free surveys and various recommendations.

The PDF's I've sent to you describe single room solutions, ideal for small flats, but we also do whole house or large apartment systems where there is access to a loft void and room for ducting runs.

Please visit the web site for more info.

Hi Mark,

I'm happy to volunteer for the Business Directory trial.

My Company is MadCAD Design ltd and I'm just a 'one man band' working from home, so low overheads & competitive prices.

I'm a Chartered Surveyor and carry out all types of building surveys (not valuations!), plus architectural work for conversions, extensions, new builds etc.

Will work all over the West Midlands area and lower part of the North West.

Hope the venture is a success.

Regards,

Rhett

Hi Mark,

We'd like to be added to your Directory listings if possible please. We are a letting agency covering the whole of Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes, and can offer the following:

• For the next 20 properties we take on, the fee’s are 8% for full management + £200 admin for finding the tenant, conducting viewings, vetting the tenant, setting up the tenancy, etc, etc – usual fee’s are 10% and 2 weeks rent.

• For the next 20 let only tenant finds we do, it’s a flat fee of £250. Usual charge is one months rent.

• No extra 10% on top of your maintenance charges. Trades can either bill you direct or through us and we’ll deduct from your rental income.

• A free EPC for every property we find a tenant for, if you haven’t got one already.

• We are run by landlords for landlords, therefore we understand the importance of providing a quality service and not charging extortionate rates.

• We keep a close eye on the rental market and will increase rents in line with current figures where necessary.

• We do not charge VAT (at the moment) – this can make a huge difference over a year, saving 20% of your total fees. If you are paying £50 per month to your current agent you will save £120 per year just by losing the VAT payable.

• All tenants are thoroughly ID checked, credit checked and referenced properly.

• Inventories with photographs are included for free with fully managed properties.

• Rents are collected by Direct Debit (unless paid direct from local council) - not standing order. Direct Debit is more reliable and non payments or cancellations are alerted automatically, and we can increase rents easier if required.

• We are currently upgrading our software to allow landlords the ability to log into their own area on our website. This will allow online access to their statements and communications log at anytime from anywhere.

• We advertise on all the major property portals, such as Rightmove, Globrix & Zoopla, plus loads of other smaller websites ensuring maximum exposure for your properties.

• Being landlords ourselves we have also come across tenants who slipped into arrears and were unfortunately evicted. If this happens to one of our landlords we can help with guidance on how to evict the tenants successfully for the minimum amount of costs. We’ll help with serving Section 21 or 8 Notices, all the way through to the tenant leaving and then re-letting the property. We have won every eviction case so far.

• We can also help with debt collection if the tenant decides to disappear while still owing rent.

If you're a do-it-yourself landlord we can also offer to advertise your property on Rightmove + others for £29.85. Please see http://www.1st-house-lettings.co.uk for details.

Kind regards,

Graham
