PLUS don’t forget this is a tax deductible expense (as is the accommodation in most cases), so the tax man is paying! AND it can be classed as CPD with most organisations too.
We NEED to solve these problems NOW...
This Just In...
There's NO Landlords out there...
We are in the midst of some of the toughest times we have seen in the industry, and now with a new leadership in charge of the country, we can all be sure more changes are coming.
Already we have a mass shortage of stock, an oversupply of tenants, clause 24 biting our client landlords hard, and interest rates rising, all resulting in landlords selling. Plus, with all that is proposed right now (such as ROPA, landlord licencing, etc), it has become clear we need to EVOLVE fast.
Having gone through the last few years and all that it has brought us, I believe we are now at the beginning of the fight of our lives. I'm talking about managing our businesses through what seems to be the biggest and most monumental change this industry has ever seen.
According to the government's white paper, 82% of landlords are not using a letting agent for property management; this is a scary number!
Option One: We complain about it but do nothing...
With already 82% of the market not using letting agents for tenancy management, this is NOT an option...
Option Two: We evolve
Fortunately, we have been working on the solutions for this for the last 6 years, and now more than ever is the time for us to evolve our businesses and make the changes so desperately needed to grow our businesses again and get us back creating businesses that work for us
We make it happen.
How do we do this?
Well, we have to provide multiple different solutions for the various different types of landlords that we see nowadays, meaning we have a more robust business model, not just relying on lets and sales but instead generating revenue from investor buyers, retiring landlords, and those that need help, meaning we also take control of our business growth.
It's that easy, right?
It's not easy, but it can be done and is being done by hundreds of agents currently across the country, resulting in them adding hundreds of thousands of pounds of additional revenue to their businesses.
It's our choice: make the change and grow, or stay the same and do things the way we've always done them.
