Some letting agents try and claim that they have tenants that others don’t, in this day and age that’s simply not true the Internet has made sure of that.

Thornley Groves home rentals are featured on all of the major property portals including Rightmove, findaproperty, Globrix, Primelocation and Zoopla.

Tenants consider every property with every letting agent because they’re frightened of missing something, the biggest difference between letting agents is how the agent handles enquiries from tenants and that’s something every landlord should investigate before instructing a letting agent to market their property.

Do the agents you are considering have the resources, the knowledge and experience as well as the quality of staff that you want to rent your home?

Thornley Groves letting agents have a higher staff to property ratio than other agents, the team are uniformed, they know and understand their stock, they earn commission and they’re enthusiastic – they are our most important marketing tool and we choose them carefully.

We equip them with sophisticated criteria matching software, we allow them to go out and meet tenants to show them property, we don’t use part time viewing reps or rely on landlords to do all of the viewings – the more we interact with the tenant the better we’ll understand their needs.

We’re open all hours, all day every day until 9pm on a Wednesday and on a Sunday when many agents close we’re here all day – so that prospective tenants with busy lives can be taken care of.

Once you’ve let you may want to use the services of our property management department, it’s here to ensure that your tenant takes care of your property, pays the rent on time. Our property management department aims to eliminate the hassle that many landlords experience, you’ll be allocated your own property manager who’ll inspect your property during the rental, oversee any repairs and resolve any problems.

Your property manager will create inventories to ensure that the condition of your property and its contents is taken care of and nearing the end of the tenancy we’ll handle the renewal or the timely re marketing of your property to minimise any void periods, maximising the return on your investment.

You NEED a letting agent that understands tenants and how best to manage a property, 2000 landlords can’t be wrong.

We have been saying for months that now is a great time to sell fuelled by a combination of stock shortage and an increase in active buyers.

Now the research teams at 3 of the leading National UK housing market forecasters, Rightmove, Knight Frank and Savills,  have all concluded exactly what we told you about 3 months ago !

 Why did we at Thornley Groves think it was a great time to sell 3 months ago and why do we think it is still a great time to sell?

 Buyers are starved of fresh stock because owners have been put off from marketing their home for various reasons – fear of not being able to obtain a mortgage, fear that their home may not achieve the kind of price they expect, or even need to cover the mortgage, fear that they may lose their job along with all the other economic concerns, not wanting to increase overheads even if they did want to move upmarket. For those trading down, often nearing retirement age, they have been putting off taking their home to the market as the proceeds of sale have been earmarked to fund retirement and why sell when the market is down; why not put off the sale for another year and hope they will achieve more. Even the casual sellers have been put off from placing their homes on the market speculatively because of the cost of a Home Information pack (HIP).

So where are the buyers coming from? First time buyers have been much more active, many being helped out with deposits by parents taking advantage of lower asking prices and there has also been a shift in the mindset of affluent tenants being tempted out of rented properties for the same reason.

Why should you act now and place your home on the market in the autumn or winter? This supply and demand imbalance won’t last forever and we think the ratio will move back into equilibrium by the spring, when traditionally more homes come to the market. In short we think it will be easier to find a buyer for your home today.

If you’re thinking of selling and you’d like a FREE valuation on your home without obligation, click http://www.thornleygroves.co.uk/valuation-request/  You may be surprised at the price we can secure for you and the speed we can find you a buyer. If you wait for the spring like everyone else, there will be more competition and this may even cause downward pressure on prices.

Costing £36m, they stand in a line overlooking Huron Basin from the waterside of Pier 9 (North Wharf), their curved frontages designed to represent sails. At night, each of the buildings is illuminated by four green lights atop curved poles, plus a single green flood light to either side.
