If you have properties to let in the Worksop area, or are thinking of buying a property in the Worksop area as an investment, then you should consider hiring an experienced local property management agency.
Lying to the north of Nottingham, this market town stands amongst some of Britain's most beautiful countryside.
Worksop provides a good opportunity for investment landlords, with reasonable property prices and sellers willing to negotiate an offer. It has a robust rental history, and tenants are not generally hard to find.
Worksop is known as the 'gateway to the Dukeries', refering to to the nearby ducal residencies at Rufford, Thoresby, Clumber and Welbeck.
Worksop's other attractions include Mr. Straw's House (owned by the National Trust), the Pilgrim Fathers' Story and the Harley Gallery, a contemporary art gallery. Nearby are the Creswell Crags Museum and Education Centre and the parks to the south of the town are the beginning of Sherwood Forest.
There are a number of benefits to hiring a property management agency. An experience valuer will be able to give you a realistic current rental value for your property. They can prepare detailed brochures and market your property effectively to achieve the best tenant available. A good Worksop letting agent will be able to provide a rent guarantee to protect your interests as a landlord and will be able to organise a guarantor for your tenant if necessary. They will be able to preparea detailed inventory, protect the tenancy deposit with the relevant scheme, carry out regular property inspections, collect rent, arrange repairs and provide you with regular updates and statements of account.
Most importantly, a good Worksop letting agent will be able to advise you on your legal obligations as a landlord; such as the necessity of obtaining an Energy Performance Certificate and requirements for Annual Gas Safety Certificates and Electrical & PAT tests.
So, whilst it is possible to find your own tenant, and look after your own property, the services of a good local letting agent could be invaluable if things go wrong.
