Our step by step process below offers an insight in to what you can expect when letting your property.
At Butler & Stag, we pride ourselves on having intimate knowledge of all of the areas that we operate in. It take years to gain a true understanding of the market place in an area, and even the most experienced agents must never take their eye off the ball, particularly in London. Our Lettings Valuers are some of the most experienced agents in their field. They will be able to advise you on necessary works to get the best possible price; current market conditions, tax implications if you will be travelling overseas, as well as the necessary consents for letting your property.
Our valuations will always be supported with relevant comparable evidence of recently let properties, be wary of an agent that doesn't do the same.
Efficient but never pushy! We understand that until you have established a value, it is difficult to reach a decision. We love nothing more than building new relationships early on and visiting different properties, never feel that you are wasting our time, even if you are months away from making a decision.
If you would like to establish the current market value for your property, please do request a free, no obligation valuation.
It is critical that you get along with the individual that values your property. This will be a 'two way' and potentially long standing relationship, you need to have complete faith and trust that your property and your interests are the priority of your agent.
It is likely that you will be dealing with one of the partners of our company. Our future success is based on the service that you receive and how well we get the job done. We will act quickly and efficiently in commencing the marketing process and by keeping you fully informed along the way.
Check the agents on-line reviews via Google or Allagents, if others have had an excellent service, it is likely you will receive the same.
