There are other tenant referencing suppliers who use Trustpilot to collect feedback from their clients, but the figures show that no other business is coming close to the LegalforLandlord’s service. With a solid 5-star rating and well over 200 reviews, we’re sitting at top of the table. The big names that aren’t up to scratch […]
To celebrate and recognise success is very important to us and on Saturday 15th September our team went paintballing. We had paintball novices and seasoned snipers so it was always going to be a fun and interesting day. Our social events help to support the fabulous team spirit that’s at the heart of our culture and […]
The LegalforLandlords team had a great day at St.Rocco’s golf day at Warrington Golf Club on Wednesday 12th September 2018. The sun was shining and our team only went and won! AND the longest drive too. A great day had by all and more importantly lots of money raised for St Rocco’s Hospice, making a real […]
As the bill to ban charging fees to tenants makes its way through Parliament, it has been discussed, debated and loaded with extra details. The latest amendments to the new legislation add extra layers of complexity and, in their desire to further protect the rights of tenants, have the potential to hit landlords and their […]
With some suppliers, tenant referencing can’t be trusted. If you can’t trust it, there’s no point having it. If it’s painfully slow, don’t put up with it While you’re waiting to find out if the applicant’s okay, you’re not making progress. You’re in limbo, neither getting the tenancy agreed nor starting the hunt for another […]
The Negotiator Awards has formally announced the 2018 shortlist and we are delighted to be shortlisted for Supplier of the Year – Professional Support. This is a great achievement for us and whilst we’re celebrating, we won’t let it go to our heads. There’s always work to be done! The Negotiator Awards are seen as the […]
Other parts of the world may have predictable climates and seasons, often with extreme conditions but Britain has its weather. Just this morning – and I’m writing this in August – I’ve heard about frosts expected overnight in Scotland. We’ve had a scorching summer, but the bank holiday weekend was a wash-out and now heating […]
Those who remember the double-digit interest rates of the 80s and 90s may have dismissed last week’s decision by The Bank of England to raise interest rates by a quarter of a per cent as irrelevant. Indeed, at 0.75% base rates are still very low, but the move will, no doubt, have an impact on […]
LegalforLandlords has just reached the milestone of 9 years in business. Back in 2009, when Smartphone technology was still new and Christiano Ronaldo was still on Manchester United’s books, as private landlords, we couldn’t find the services we needed. So, we created the business that’s now delivering them to more and more property investors right […]
A headline-grabbing bargain isn’t a bargain if, in the long run, it costs us. It’s called false economy and it doesn’t just apply when you’re buying goods. It applies when you’re looking after landlords. Think about tenant referencing. The few quid you might save on a ‘bargain’ reference is going to look worthless if a […]
There is a risk-free way to earn extra income. It’s very simple. You refer people to LegalforLandlords for insurance. If they purchase cover – and we do all the work – you earn the commission. We’re not talking peanuts. Commission on ten lettings a month could be up to £1000. Get cracking before the fees ban comes […]
The property rental industry should take note of the results of a survey carried out by the property technology business One Dome. Although surveying homeowners as opposed to tenants, lettings agents or landlords, when asked which consumer brands offered the best digital experience, Amazon and Uber came top of the list. Furthermore, something similar to […]
A big WELL DONE to our LegalforLandlords team for conquering Snowdon on Saturday 7th July to raise money for St Rocco’s Hospice! It was hard work in this hot weather but the team smashed it! You can still donate here: http://bit.ly/2MVi7Uv or text TRIL75 £5.00 to 70070.
Yesterday (09/07/18), Government launched a new version of the How to Rent Guide. This series of guides form a key part of government’s crackdown on poor practice by a minority of landlords and agents in the private rented and leasehold sectors. Included in the new ‘how to’ guides is an updated version of How to […]
It’s probably not an exaggeration to say that, in general, lettings agents aren’t respected by Joe Public. Some agencies, clearly, don’t deserve any respect, and the sooner the industry can eliminate these rogues, the better. Others, however, are highly competent, professional and diligent, but we never hear about those businesses other than in the industry […]
Our legal team completed the Starlight Ladies Walk for St Rocco’s Hospice on Saturday 23 June. We are pleased to say they have now passed their £400 target & are hoping to reach over £500 with their upcoming tombola on Wednesday. Well done Ladies! You can donate here.
The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government has published new ‘how to’ guides so that landlords, leaseholders and tenants in England can understand their rights and responsibilities. This series of guides form a key part of government’s crackdown on poor practice by a minority of landlords and agents in the private rented and leasehold […]
A few months ago, I was lamenting the loss of a few substantial accounts. Lured away by an attractive headline price for tenant referencing, the clients took their business to our competitors. In theory, it would have been possible to keep the business – if we’d been prepared to reduce quality and restrict the service […]
In tenant referencing quality counts. Other suppliers might have a tempting headline price, but they’re fond of adding in a few extra charges, subscription and transaction fees. What’s more, they don’t have the quality systems we have. Our referencing is thorough, and it’s backed by the right technology – tenants can even log in and track progress. It’s a quality service […]
The buy-to-let business has definitely got harder. But – and this may appear controversial – before recent Government changes, it was perhaps a little too easy. With few barriers and high returns, the sector was attractive to some people who didn’t have the skills, the attitude or the responsible approach that being a landlord […]
