Whether you’re starting out as a new landlord with just one property to let or consider yourself to be a more seasoned developer with a handful of properties, Keywest can help with our Buy To Let Advice.

Investing in property can be an extremely rewarding experience and, of course, it offers many financial benefits when properly managed.

Priding itself on being one of Leicester’s leading estate agents, Keywest has an experienced team of property professionals on hand to help you every step of the way.

Regardless of how many properties you want to let, we understand that you’ll always want to maximise your rental investment and achieve the best return you can. And that’s what we’re here for. From an initial rental assessment of your property right through to its ongoing maintenance, Keywest will ensure you find the right tenants and at the right price for you.

If you’re a newcomer to the rental business, then we’re also here to give you some valuable advice on what to look for in a property. Let’s say, for example, that you’re looking to let a family home. It’s crucial to see things from a tenant’s point of view, so in this case you’d need to consider local schools and perhaps choose a property that can accommodate plenty of storage and a garden area. If, on the other hand, you’re looking to accommodate students, then you’ll need to think about properties that are not only close to colleges and universities, but are also close to transport links, whilst perhaps offering a few extra touches, such as white appliances, which will help your property to stand out from the rest for a relatively low outlay.

Regardless of the market you’re reaching out to, you’ll also need to ensure that the property stays well maintained whilst also complying with statutory regulations such as electrical inspections and maintenance of any Gas Safety Certificate. Keywest are able to manage all of these ongoing requirements to ensure your letting experience is both stress-free and seamless.

When it comes to the end of your tenancy, we’ll also market your property at the soonest opportunity to ensure your income return is completely maximised through ongoing occupation. If your property ever has a slight gap in occupation, then we’d definitely recommend utilising this time to carry out any maintenance work – perhaps touching up the paintwork, clearing the gutters and getting any other odd jobs done before the next tenancy starts.

There are many things to consider when becoming a landlord, but whatever your requirements or experience, Keywest offers the expertise to make your letting experience an enjoyable one. We pride ourselves on giving straightforward and honest advice and support, but don’t just take our word for it.
