Help to Buy in full swing, mortgage deals improving and first-time buyer numbers on the rise. The sales side of property is flying. The unusual bit? So is lettings. It's exceptional to have such success in both sectors of the industry, which can present a resourcing issue for agents.
If your business operation is both sales and lettings, you might be diverting more of your team to sales. You might even be thinking about expanding your sales division with new staff. While it's great to be out on valuations and seeing exchanges through to completion, the surge in sales can leave your lettings department understaffed.
Smart thinking means outsourcing. Running a lettings department requires manpower and specialist expertise, which ARPM Property Management has in abundance. You can maintain a fully functional lettings business and divert staff to sales without compromising on quality or control.
Dave Hunt, Business Development Director at ARPM Lettings says: "Lettings can be the first area to suffer when there's a rush in the sales department. Now is the time to delegate some or all of your lettings duties, allowing you to capitalise on the buoyant sales conditions. ARPM is a member of ARLA, NALS, The Property Ombudsman and The Tenancy Deposit Scheme, so we're well-placed to look after your lettings business. We offer a full property management service for those wishing to take a big step back from lettings, but we also offer stand-alone services, like pre-tenancy administration and rent collection, which can lighten the workload for agents looking for a 'halfway' solution."
"Agents who start using ARPM's outsourcing service during busy periods often find they enjoy the 'hands off' approach, which allows them to reap the financial rewards that rentals bring without the hassle of time-consuming duties, such as property maintenance, manning tenants' emergency help-lines and keeping track of paper trails. Those agents tend to retain ARPM, allowing them to grow their lettings business and service the sales demand, without the cost of hiring more staff or compromising the level of service they offer landlords and tenants."
