Becoming a landlord for the first time can be a very stressful period of time, especially if you are new to this industry. If you are a seasoned landlord and property owner, you will fully understand and appreciate the difficulties and bumps in the road that are inevitable when you become a landlord. With that being said, it doesn’t have to be some stressful project that consumes all of your spare time, hiring a letting agent can be highly beneficial.
Preparation
Firstly, you have to find and purchase the right property or flat to rent Glasgow Harbour. With HAP Lettings, you will have all the help you need and access to view hundreds of properties and flats to rent on Glasgow Harbour and throughout the city. When you are doing this on your own, and for the first time, it can be a very tedious process – as experienced letting agents we can begin the process straight away, find the right property for you and have it prepared for letting.
Bad Tenants
One of the main ‘stresses’ of being a landlord is having to deal with bad and unpleasant tenants. In 2012, over 60% of buy to let landlords has some kind of problem with a bad tenant. Around 100,000 tenants in that year did not pay their rent for over 2 months.
Anti-social behaviour and disruptive tenants that were reported by their landlords costs £300 million in the taxpayer’s money. They are noisy and disruptive, some pay their rent late and miss payments or they are just not easy to deal with or contact. By hiring HAP Lettings you will never have to worry about the hassle of dealing with a bad tenant – we will deal with all disturbances, chase up the tenants when rent is late or missed, ensuring that you always receive your payment.
Not only that, we will deal with any and all problems that arise during the duration of the tenancy agreement. From repairs and damages to arranging for your tenant to sign for the new dishwasher, HAP Lettings will fully coordinate and manage your property and tenant to a very high standard.
The Paperwork
When it comes to entering the industry of letting property and becoming a landlord, we don’t need to tell you how many legal documents and legislations need to be followed; and this can be very daunting to a first time landlord. The last thing you want is to have a go at it yourself when you are not fully educated, risk meeting the legal standards and be heavily penalised.
At HAP Lettings, we are fully qualified and up to date on the current market demands and legislations. We will ensure that you and your property are fully covered and the paper is watertight, as well as ensuring all the necessary reference checks have been carried out on your potential tenant. We will deal with all of the paperwork and all of the stress.
Vacancies
If you are unfortunate to have a vacancy then (we don’t need to tell you) that means you have no money coming in; and this is not good. When you hire the services of a letting agent you will reduce, if not totally extinguish, the time between tenants and how long your property is lying vacant.
