Choosing a letting agent is about more than finding someone to advertise your property. You need local knowledge, clear communication and confidence that your home is in capable hands. At Love Homes, we are ARLA accredited and offer both find-a-tenant and fully managed services. Here’s what to look for when choosing an agent.
Whether you’re selling for the first time or moving after many happy years in the same home, there is plenty to think about. Packing is only one part of it. There’s paperwork to complete, removals to organise and the small matter of remembering where you put the kettle.
A new government scheme could help first-time buyers purchase with a deposit of just 2.5%. With more details expected at the October Budget, here’s what prospective buyers need to know.
A change of tenancy is a useful opportunity to review more than the rent. From property condition to compliance and management, a little preparation this autumn can help create a smoother next let.
A move often starts long before a property is officially listed. If selling within the next few months is becoming a realistic possibility, September is a good time to work out what needs to happen first.
Buyers have plenty to compare this autumn, which makes the way a home enters the market increasingly important. A strong first impression, realistic price and thoughtful presentation can all help attract the right attention.
If moving is starting to feel more realistic, September is a useful time to prepare. Understanding your budget, priorities and local property search now could make things much easier when the right home appears.
A fresh coat of paint can help, but missing paperwork can delay a sale for months. Use August to prepare the information buyers and solicitors will need before an offer is agreed.
The rental market is still growing, but the way properties are managed has changed. August is a useful time for landlords to review tenancies, rent processes and record-keeping.
