It goes without saying that as a would-be or even an established landlord, there’s a great deal to think about, and a lot to do, if you decide to go it alone. You’ll have done your homework here, so you’ll know what’s involved. In a word, there’s lots!

Finding suitable tenants, doing all the essential referencing and credit checks, organising the finances, fixing a broken boiler or a leaky roof, negotiating rent renewals – these are just a few of the fiddly, attention-to-detail-type things you’ll need to know, understand and undertake. In brief, you’re going to have a long To Do list, and you’ll need to keep on top of all the rules and regulations governing property lettings.
So, why Use a Letting Agency such as Clarity Property Management? In summary, you’ll need to consider the following:
Is great service worth the cost? Less work for you, plus peace of mind? Do you really want to wake up at 3am, realising that you’ve forgotten to take care of something vital? No, we don’t think so either!

As we move into Spring it's time to look back at the first quarter of the year...

The first quarter of 2023 has seen a surge in demand for rental properties, with many tenants looking to secure high-quality accommodation as quickly as possible. This increased demand has resulted in a rise in rental prices, which has had a positive impact on both our landlords and Clarity as a business. Landlords have been able to achieve excellent yields, and the increased competition for rental properties has allowed us to secure attractive terms for our clients.

This has been a positive and encouraging period for the property market as a whole, despite negative reports from some circles in the media, and we are excited to see what the future holds. We are confident that we will continue to see a strong and vibrant property market throughout the rest of the year and the buoyant property market has allowed us to provide a first-class service to our clients, and we look forward to continuing to do so throughout the remainder of 2023.

If you’re looking to invest, property is obviously going to be on your radar. While being a landlord isn’t for everyone, for those who are suited to it, buy-to-let can be a fantastic way to bolster and diversify their overall financial portfolio.

This brings us to the question, how much deposit do you need for a buy-to-let mortgage?

Spring is coming and the longer, lighter days of Summer are on the horizon!

This also means that it’s time to start getting your property ready for the warmer months ahead and now is the perfect time to start preparing. The best place to start is with an inspection, take a full, detailed look through your property and make sure you take pictures of anything that needs attention. From this create a list of priorities, and get to work!

Energy-efficient. It’s the gold standard for modern homes. And in the quest to waste less power, save money, and help care for the planet, there’s lots that can be done.

What is home energy efficiency?

In simple terms, energy-efficiency means doing more with less. So for instance, energy-saving light bulbs create the same amount of light but use less energy and waste less heat than old-style light bulbs. Why’s that so important? Because energy-efficiency limits our levels of energy consumption.

Having an energy efficient house in these expensive times is a great plus to be able to showcase to any prospective tenants!

Buying or selling a rental property is a big decision and there are lots of things you’ll need to consider.

Some of the factors that could encourage landlords to sell up in 2023 include:
- rising mortgage costs
- capital gains tax changes
- increased regulation

On the other hand, some landlords could be keen to buy a property due to:
- high rental demand
- rising average rental prices
- lower average property prices

Make sure you are looking out for these points when considering your options in 2023!

Of course, you want to make a reasonable income from your investment property, but knowing what level to set your rent at can be tricky. If you go too high, you risk putting tenants off - especially if there are many properties to choose from in your area. Even just £25 a month extra could deter them, leaving you with an empty property and a hole in your finances. With this in mind, it's essential to charge a reasonable rent that gives you a good return while also allowing you to attract tenants.

Here at Clarity we have put together points to cover however seeking expert help is key so please call us today and let us help you on 01273 253000.
