Ten Steps to take before becoming a landlord Step 1 – Get Permission It is important to seek permission from your mortgage provider to let out your property prior to marketing the same. Step 2 – Do your Research There are lots of agents on the High Street and online, but how do you know which one to choose? Boydens are members of the Association of Residential Lettings Agents (www. arla.co.uk). All members of ARLA are professionally trained and meet strict codes of conduct including the legally required redress scheme and client money protection. Step 3 – Obtain a Valuation Even if you know the rent you wish to charge, it is always prudent to secure a free valuation to check what the market is doing as it can change very quickly.
