Case Study

Overseas investor

Residential Development Lettings

An overseas investor needed a professional lettings agent in London with experience of new-build developments.

The client wanted us to inspect the property on their behalf prior to completion, identify any visual defects, take handover of the apartment from the developer and ensure the defects were rectified, arrange furnishing, market the property, secure a quality tenant and manage the property for them.

The team tirelessly helped secure tenants and while there was a need to interact with different lettings branches for my portfolio, a common thread weaved through which professionalism and friendly service were maintained.

We were able to market the property prior to legal completion and secure a tenancy to commence within five days of legal completion. We took the stress out of the whole process for the client which was vital with them being based overseas and having never seen the property.
