WHY LANDLORDS, AGENTS & TENANTS NEED EACH OTHER
| Posted on October 27, 2016 at 6:05 AM |
WHY
LANDLORDS, AGENTS & TENANTS NEED EACH OTHER There are
few days that go by without me seeing some negative press about scumbag,
rip-off landlords, or negligent agents failing in their duty of care and
charging exorbitant fees, or tenants not paying their rent and wrecking
properties. The British
Press just can’t resist having a pop, because we love a good story that blames
someone else for the wrongs in our society. So, here’s
a novel approach to all that negativity, a positive spin on the rental market! Did you
know that the vast majority of landlords are really quite nice people? Yes,
it’s true! Sure they own property to rent out, and yes, it’s an investment.
They hope for long term capital growth and cashflow from the rental income. Do
they do it because they are greedy, money grabbing, heartless people?
Absolutely not. They are simply looking for somewhere to invest their savings
and do their bit to help with the cronic housing shortage in this country. Look, I’m
not so naïve to think there is not a small minority who give landlords a bad
name, but show me an industry which is squeeky clean from top to bottom. I am
pleased that the landlords whose properties I manage, want to look after their
tenants by providing a home that is in good order, sorting repairs and
maintenance quickly and efficiently, and ensuring they meet their legal
responsibilities. They
delegate much of this responsibility to a local agent who will charge a fee to
the landlord for executing these duties. The agent will also be expected to
find suitable tenants who will have been referenced and credit checked, and who
will have been furnished with all appropriate paperwork under current housing regulations
prior to keys being handed over. Post check in, the agent will manage the
property, ensure that rent is paid on time and handed over to the landlord. I
am always saddened when I hear of agents who act in an unprofessional manner
towards their landlords and tenants. Ultimately they will lose business and
their reputation. I have no sympathy I’m afraid! Tenants
will expect a nice tidy, clean home to move in to, and will expect that any
repairs and maintenance issues are dealt with quickly and efficiently by the
agent. Tenants who feel listened to, and who see that the landlord and agent
are doing their best to look after them and their home, will be happy tenants,
who will hopefully become long term tenants. Yes, there will always be the odd
rogue tenant who slips through the net and causes problems. That is part of the
risk that landlords and agents sign up for. There is no
doubt in my mind though that BAD landlords, BAD agents, and BAD tenants are
often attracted to each other! So, that
being the case, then the opposite must be true as well. The power of
attraction is indeed very POWERFUL! I am proud
of the fact that at Freedays Property I get existing tenants recommending my
services to their friends and families; that existing tenants who need to move
want to stay with my agency; and that previous tenants who have perhaps moved
away and returned to the area, call me first to see if I have anything suitable
for them to rent. In
conclusion as to why LANDLORDS, AGENTS and TENANTS need each other, here are a
few bullet points: * LANDLORDS
need AGENTS who will act ethically, honestly and professionally, and they need
TENANTS who will pay their rent on time, look after their property and treat it
as their own home * AGENTS
need LANDLORDS who will keep their properties in good order and who understand
and comply with their legal responsibilities, and TENANTS who pay their rent on
time and look after the property and treat it as their own home, complying with
the terms of their tenancy agreement * TENANTS
need LANDLORDS and AGENTS to provide rental properties for them to live in, and
who will deal with issues swiftly and efficiency, and who charge reasonable
fees and rents The rental
market should be a market that is based on (GOOD!) RELATIONSHIPS between the 3 main parties involved. If this
can be fostered and maintained, then it is a WIN-WIN-WIN situation
all round. Simples!!! Malcolm

It's very simple that they all need each other because tenants need a rental house to live in and for this, they need the agents. So they may find a better place for them and as similarly landlords wanted to rent out their house and for this, they need agents so they may find good tenants for them.
