Is it time to switch letting agency?

As an established and highly experienced Edinburgh Letting Agency, ESPC Lettings understand the importance of providing landlords with first-class service, from let-only and property marketing to full property management services.

A full property management service should alleviate the stress and strains of life as a landlord and includes everything from securing tenants to property maintenance, inspections, rent collection, deposit deductions and creating legal documents to make sure you and your property are meeting current legislation. But what happens when your current provider isn’t performing to the highest standards? Perhaps it’s time to make a change...

Should you change your Letting Agency?

There could be several reasons why you start thinking about switching to a new lettings' agency. Frustration can quickly grow to exasperation when your current provider becomes slow to respond, provides a lack of clear communication or your rental income doesn’t arrive on time. Worse still, if you start to see a downturn in the quality of maintenance and inspections, or an increase in the turnover of tenants, life as a landlord can quickly become problematic.

If you have become unhappy with the level of service your current agent is offering, then it's time to think about changing agents. And it’s easier than you think.

How to switch Letting Agency

In an ideal world, the best time to switch to letting agent would be when you find yourself between tenancies or when the current tenancy is coming to an end.

If you are keen to make the switch sooner, it’s still possible to do so mid-tenancy, and our expert letting team can help make the transition quick and easy. Firstly, you should check the agreement you have in place with your current agent and see when you can end the agreement.
