Lettings Process
Having an empty property can be stressful. In order to maximise the return on your investment you need to act fast to find a reliable tenant who will pay the best price. Here are some key steps to reaching this goal.
Step 1 - Accurate valuation
Our expert valuers carry out hundreds of valuations every month giving us intimate and unparalleled knowledge of property values in your area. This is why we consistently achieve the asking price across all our clients' properties.
Call us on 020 8988 2838 or register your property online.
Step 2 - Choosing an agent
When choosing an agent consider what kind of marketing your property will receive, what type of property management service is being offered and what type of infrastructure is in place. These are critical to obtaining the maximum price for your property.
Step 3 - Maximum exposure
When you instruct Omega Lettings to let your property you will automatically benefit from our unrivalled, comprehensive marketing package. Our team of valuers will arrange to view your property immediately, take colour photographs and have them live on our website and all the relevant industry portals within 24 hours, alongside local information, location maps, aerial views and a printable colour brochure.
Step 4 - Safety regulations
As a landlord, you have an obligation to ensure that your property complies with all the necessary regulations covering the safety of gas appliances, electrical installations and any furnishings supplied for the tenancy. We can advise you on this and arrange the necessary inspections. For information regarding the property lettings regulations please click here.
Step 5 - Viewings
To maximise viewing opportunities, Omega Lettings is flexible to meet tenants requirements. Industry professionals, who have a number of years of lettings experience, conduct all of our views.
Step 6 - A suitable tenant
Once a suitable tenant has been found, we will apply for references on your behalf. If the tenant proves to be acceptable, we then proceed to the next stage. We have hundreds of high calibre private and corporate tenants and we work with large corporations, finding homes for their key personnel.
Step 7 - Property Management
Many tenants, especially corporate tenants, prefer to rent managed properties. Instructing Omega Lettings to manage your property guarantees round-the-clock care for both your property and your tenant. After finding you a tenant, we take care of both them and you throughout the tenancy, including everything from collecting rent and handling all administration to assistance with more complex issues and the provision of a 24-hour emergency helpline. More about Property Management.
Step 8 - Rental paperwork
Tenancy agreement - To achieve a smooth running tenancy it is essential to have a professional agreement in place. We will draw up the relevant paperwork based on years of experience, ensuring all the necessary documents are signed by both parties.
Inventory - An inventory of the contents and condition of the property is usually produced prior to commencement of the tenancy. This will be supplied to both landlord and tenant.
Step 9 - Rent and deposit
Omega Lettings will collect the rent on your behalf and a deposit from the tenant will be held. Omega Lettings will hold all deposits as a stakeholder and, where applicable, will register the deposit with a deposit protection scheme, in line with current legislation.
Step 10 - Completion
Unless your property is let on a short let basis, you need to ensure letters are sent out transferring the utilities into the name of your tenant and keys are handed over.
Congratulations, your property is now let!
