RECENT EXAMPLE


Mr & Mrs Hutch (London), approached Harrisons in 2016 with a budget of £200,000 to invest in property, they are a retired couple with capital sitting in the bank gaining very little return. They decided to invest in property and contacted Harrisons.


Their goal was to buy two properties in the North West, and were looking for residual income of approximately £1,000 per month to top up their pensions.


So Clint and the team set out to look for the best possible investment that would be safe and secure and return the £1,000 per month to Mr & Mrs Hutch. We quickly located two perfect properties both in the region of £85,000. We negotiated the offers, and agreed the sales with a matter of weeks.


We then set out to arrange with our maintenance team to freshen up the properties where necessary ready to bring the properties to the rental market. Once the sales completed the same day our maintenance team started the refurbishment programmes. Harrisons also started to market the properties as “available to let”. As the maintenance guys carried out their works, so did Harrisons booking double figure block booking viewings for the day the works completed.


The end result was, both properties tenanted within weeks of sale completion along with soft refurbishments carried out.

Currently both properties are tenanted achieving over £1,100 per month combined, fully managed by Harrisons Estate Agents, and our lovely clients are very happy to say the least.

If your letting agent isn’t delivering, you don’t have to stay stuck. Switching agents is easier than many landlords realise and could protect your investment long-term. Here’s how the process works, and why September is the perfect time to act.

Choosing a new home isn’t just about the property itself – the neighbourhood plays a huge role in your quality of life. From schools and transport links to local shops and community spirit, here’s what to look out for when deciding if an area is right for you.

If you’re hoping to be in your new home by Christmas, time is running out. With UK sale timelines now topping 200 days from listing to completion, September may be your last chance to start the process. Here’s what you need to know before it’s too late…

Autumn may not be the first season that comes to mind when people think about moving, but it can be a surprisingly strong time to sell. Buyers who are still active at this stage of the year tend to be serious about completing before Christmas or the new year. With the right preparation, your home can stand out and attract motivated buyers even as the nights draw in.
