Landlords Can Lose Lots of Money by Using Bad Agents

By choosing a trusted, reputable lettings agent, you get piece of mind that both yourself and your tenant(s) are protected if any unforeseen circumstances arise. These circumstances can be anything from landlords legal obligations against the tenant around the certifications required for the property, to issues with the tenant. With Chancellors both parties are backed by legally binding contracts and government-approved deposit protection schemes.  

Lettings Agent

As a trusted lettings agent, we follow all necessary legislation and best practice principles to ensure that our clients are protected, whether you let or rent with us. There have been some unfortunate situations regarding landlords losing lots of money due to using untrusted lettings agents which you can read about here. Many of these horror stories could have been prevented if the landlord chose a trusted lettings agent to fully protect themselves and their tenant(s). Here is a quick list of things to keep an eye out for, to ensure that your lettings agent is the ‘real deal’:

• They have a proven track record of successfully letting properties over an extended period of time
• They have asked both you and the tenant(s) for all necessary documentation and references prior to the tenancy agreement
• They provide you and the tenant(s) with professional contracts or documentation during all major stages of the letting process
• They have provided certificates and compliance records to you to demonstrate the maintenance of the property
