HOW LANDLORDS CAN BE ONE STEP AHEAD OF THE CROWD
With increasing numbers of people turning from buying homes to renting, landlords would be wise to have a full
understanding of the many responsibilities and obligations they face.
Miller & Son Letting Agents have devised a handy check list to prepare their clients and ensure they stay one step ahead of the competition.
When you’re preparing a property to let it’s essential to make sure you know what your legal responsibilities are and that the property complies with all the relevant legislation. Landlords have obligations under the Landlord and Tenant Act to maintain and repair the property and ensure that it’s safe and comfortable for tenants. Landlords and Agents need to make sure that the property has a valid Energy Performance Certificate in place before marketing the property. Necessary gas and electricity safety checks must be carried out by properly qualified contractors and any furniture in the property must comply with Furniture and Fire Safety Regulations.
Tenants will not be expecting to do any work to the house, so landlords should make it as attractive as possible to as many people as possible. The best colours to decorate with are neutrals, especially if the property is to be let unfurnished as tenants will need to imagine their own
furniture and belongings in the property. Fit new carpets if possible, or get existing carpets and floors professionally cleaned. It pays to offer tenants the basic appliances even if you’re not renting furnished – a ready to use kitchen is a good selling point,
especially to younger tenants who may not have these items already. Tenants want somewhere they can move straight into so make sure any minor repairs are done - right down to checking there are working bulbs in all light fittings.
Ensuring the property is spotlessly clean is essential. It’s worth calling in a professional cleaner not just for the carpets, curtains and upholstery, but to blitz the whole place and remove any lingering smells of pets, food and cigarette smoke. If the property has a garden make sure all hedges and trees are trimmed and the lawns are mowed. It’s also worth bearing in mind that most tenants prefer a simple low-maintenance garden.
Manager of Miller & Son’s Penzance-based west Cornwall branch, Becky Lunson, said: “It’s important to us to ensure we do the very best for our clients, making sure they are well informed and well prepared. The check list is proving popular and really helpful to landlords.”
Miller & Son has four dedicated letting offices at strategic places in the county - Penzance, Redruth, St Austell and Launceston - and can provide various levels of management support from the basic ‘let only’ to a full property management service. For more information, call Penzance Miller & Son on 01736 351303.
