About Letting Agents

This section is called ‘about letting agents’ as it is not a section FOR letting agents! It is a section with information for landlords. Many landlords will want to use a letting agent – either just to find them a tenant, or to manage one or more of their properties.

In this section, we have a lot of guidance on finding a good agent, plus some guidance on what to do if you are unhappy with your agent’s service.

Although this section is aimed at landlords, no doubt it will be very useful to letting agents too! Find out more from the content below.
