Become A Letting Agent Home
There has not been a better time to become a letting agent in 20 years. Getting in now gives you an advantage over people who don’t figure this out for a couple of years. This golden opportunity is there because of two main reasons. Firstly the number of people choosing property to invest in has gone up dramatically in recent years, because of the ease of getting a buy to let mortgage. These have of course virtually disappeared now, but they have left behind large numbers of landlords that need to have their property rented. Secondly, because of the house price crash, there are increasing numbers of people who have to move, but can’t sell. These people are having to rent their property instead, and most of these will need a letting agent because they have no experience.
To help you get started in setting up a letting agency you can buy packages that will include things such as a “how to” manual, legal forms, website etc. There are a few of these to choose from but what you pay and what you get can vary quite a lot. For example some so called start up packages are just a manual and the forms, but in the 21st century you can’t really begin a lettings business without an internet web site. Anyone who is on the internet reading this article has to agree that the internet is crucial to new business. Existing letting and estate agents acknowledge that 5-10 years ago, 80% of their business came from people walking into their shop. These days, 80% of it comes from the internet. Because of this, one of the crucial issues we looked at when deciding which one of the packages was top, was the quality of the website that they included.
It was quite clear that Lets Do Lettings were way ahead of the game, both in quality and options. By comparison the other 2 competitors were nowhere. We have included links to all letting agent packages below for you to judge for yourself.
Lets do Lettings – This is the most up to date “how to” information on setting up a lettings business
Web Site Design for Letting Agents – but also includes a free book on starting a letting agency
Southcourt – long established, but the general comments seem bad
Letting4success – expensive for just a manual.
