Guide To Letting
Your Guide With Wright Estate Agents
Letting out your home or investment property should be straightforward and profitable — not stressful. At Wright Estate Agents we live and work right here in Tottington, Greenmount and the surrounding villages, so we know exactly what tenants are looking for and how to get your property let quickly at the best possible rent.
Preparing Your Property
Before we market your home we make sure it’s fully compliant and looking its best. We’ll carry out a detailed inspection and give you clear, honest advice on any improvements that will help it rent faster and for more money. This includes arranging your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), gas safety certificate, electrical safety report and any other legal requirements. We’ll also recommend professional cleaning, minor repairs and simple staging tips so the photos and viewings really stand out. Many landlords are surprised how much these small steps increase both speed and rental value.
Pricing & Marketing
Getting the rent price spot on is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. We’ll provide a free, no-obligation rental valuation based on current local market data and recent lettings in the area. Once we agree the price, we create professional photography, floorplans and a compelling description, then market your property. We have such strong local demand, we often already have pre-qualified tenants on our books who are actively looking in Tottington and Greenmount — meaning your property can be let before it even needs to go fully public.
Finding Quality Tenants
We never just fill a property with the first person who applies. Every applicant goes through full referencing, credit checks, employment verification and previous landlord references. We also complete all Right to Rent checks as required by law. You only ever see the very best tenants who can comfortably afford the rent and are likely to treat your home with care. We arrange viewings at times that suit you (or handle them completely on your behalf if you prefer) and keep you updated at every stage so you always feel in control.
The Letting Process
Once we’ve found the perfect tenant we handle all the paperwork — tenancy agreements, detailed inventories, deposit protection in a government-approved scheme, and a smooth move-in day. If you have chosen the Silver or Gold management services, we’ll collect the rent, arrange any repairs, carry out regular inspections and deal with day-to-day issues on your behalf. You can sit back and enjoy the income knowing your investment is being looked after by people who genuinely care about the area and your property. Many of our landlords have been with us for years because we treat every home like it’s our own.
