Take the pain out of letting and leave all the hard work to us.
Letting properties is not easy or straightforward, but it does not have to be painful.
As experienced landlords ourselves, we understand what being a landlord actually entails with all of the frustrations and pitfalls – and how to avoid them! As well as how to capitalise on your investment and increase revenue for you.
Whether you are an inexperienced first-time landlord looking for advice and guidance to get started, a seasoned landlord who is tired of the hassle of dealing with weekend maintenance calls or a landlord looking for a SMARTER property maintenance solution, Lincs Landlords can help.
Why should you consider Lincs Landlords Ltd as your Property management Company?
1. Tenant Screening
Tenant turnover costs you money so we help to keep tenant churn to a minimum. We believe the value is not only in finding the right tenant but also ensuring the property is right for the tenant in the first place.
First impressions can be deceptive and even the most plausible, honest looking people can prove to be difficult tenants. Here at Lincs Landlords, we always take screening of potential tenants very seriously. After all, a tenant who pays their rent on time and takes care of your property is not only good for you but is also a lot less hassle for us, so it is in everyone’s interests to find the right tenant, first time.
2. Quicker occupancy rates
An empty property results in costs rather than revenue. We will achieve the best financial return on your property by ensuring that your property has quality tenants in place, paying rent, as quickly as possible. We will work hard to help you get your property ready for the rental market, ensuring that it meets all legal requirements and is presented to its best advantage. At the end of a tenancy, we can use our turnkey protocols to check tenants out of a property quickly and efficiently, ensuring that it is left in tip top condition, or if required, brought back up to standard quickly, ready for the next tenants to move in.
3. Ensuring legal safety requirements are met
There are a number of safety regulations that need to be met before a property can be let e.g. electrical inspection (EICR), energy performance certificate (EPC), landlord gas safety inspection, Legionella risk assessment and the correct number of carbon monoxide and smoke/heat detectors. We will advise on all current safety regulations and can arrange the necessary checks to be carried out to ensure that your property is fully compliant, so you do not get caught out. We can also coordinate any work required to resolve any issues that are found.
4. Higher rental values
As local experts, we keep a close eye on market conditions and property demands in the area meaning we can quickly establish the current rental value of your property. We can also offer advice on easy ways to maximise your rental income e.g. freshening up the rooms with a coat of paint or replacing worn out carpets or flooring. And as experienced property developers ourselves, we can even arrange the work to be carried out on your behalf.
5. Better maintenance of your property
High standard properties attract high standard tenants, whilst maintaining or increasing capital valuations and regular maintenance of properties reduces capital investment risk. Also, when there is a problem in your property action is needed quickly. This can be difficult if you are working, on holiday or trying to fit letting requirements around other responsibilities and it can be difficult finding the right person to deal with the problem. We can do all of this for you. We have our own team of fully qualified tradesmen so can liaise directly with the tenants to agree a suitable time when the property can be accessed to carry out the repairs, saving you a whole lot of time and hassle.
We can also carry out periodic inspections to check that the general standard of your property is being maintained throughout the length of the tenancy.
6. Not having to deal with tenants face to face
Having a property manager as the point of contact for tenants can take away a lot of the stress of being a landlord. All tenant interactions can be dealt with professionally without you having to deal with uncomfortable or confrontational conversations about late rent payments, evictions, or unreasonable damage to your property.
7. Ensuring rent is paid on time
Letting is only a revenue stream if the rent gets paid. Ensuring that rent is collected every week/month is a key concern for many property owners. We can handle situations of late paying tenants and can employ tactics to resolve the situation in a professional manner before it escalates further or becomes personal. On the very rare occasion that no resolution can be found we can start legal proceedings on your behalf, to get the tenant evicted.
