How Millbanks Can Help Let and Manage Your Property

How Millbanks Can Help Let and Manage Your Property

Different local lettings agencies offer different services and different prices. But what makes us at Millbanks really different?

Well, we’re Attleborough’s longest established agency with a presence in the town since 1979.
But apart from decades of experience, it’s our dedication to looking after our landlords and tenants that makes us stand out as being different.
Here’s why our landlords have the peace of mind of knowing that they’re in safe hands.

1) We take the time to listen to your goals for the property and/or your portfolio. All our decisions and advice are made with your best interests at heart. We understand that this is an ongoing relationship rather than a one-off transaction. Many of our landlords have been with us for decades.

2) We create marketing materials including professional photography, a detailed property listing and have a strategy in place that will grab interest and create demand. This means more people will be vying to move in, meaning you have a selection of tenants to choose from who are willing to pay a premium price.

3) We make the moving in process simple. Once tenants have passed our rigorous referencing process and you are happy, we conduct the move in. We will take an inventory and ensure everything is in place to start the tenancy on the right foot.

4) We can take the hassle and work off your shoulders and manage the property on your behalf. We will liaise with the tenant around rental collection, regular inspections and keeping on top of maintenance and repairs. We will also keep you on the right side of the rental property rules that many self-managing landlords get into trouble with.

5) Our fully managed service is 12% of the monthly rent (+VAT). This means you can sit back and relax as your rental investment matures in value. However, when it comes to property management, you really do get what you pay for, so watch out for cut-price offers that ultimately deliver rock bottom service and value.

6) You’ll have access to our team of qualified rental property experts who know the answers to your questions and who are always on hand to help our landlords.
If you would like to discuss any aspect of renting out your property, please give our friendly, experienced team a call today on 01953 453838.
