Hayfield Robinson, the leading force in commercial property in the Aire Valley have expended our residential lettings and property management department to offer a range of services to meet the needs of all types of landlords. Lee Bilbrough, Director, who will be heading the department commented “we have always offered a lettings and management service to our established commercial clients however in recent times we have seen a significant increase in the demand for residential property in the upper Aire Valley. We have therefore decided to offer a comprehensive service available to all. There has always been good levels of demand in the area however this has been bolstered by the continuing sluggishness of the sales markets”. A general lack of buyer confidence twinned with the difficulties in the mortgage market means renting has become a viable alternative and indeed in many cases the preferred option. Landlords however should be aware that as well this increasing demand there has also been an increase in supply with many ‘accidental landlords’ coming into the rented sector. Lee comments “it is important to ensure the property is presented in a way to suit its target audience and landlords needs to be a little more imaginative in terms of both presentation and marketing initiatives”.
Hayfield Robinson have devised a range of services which can be tailored to meet the requirements of every landlord and by adopting this fresh approach and introducing new thinking we are able to produce the quickest possible lettings, reduce void periods and maintain maximum occupancy. The new department has been launched with an all new interactive website, subscription to the UK’s leading property portal, Rightmove.co.uk and the company will be offering landlords regular money saving promotions.
