Why owners keep it off the portals
Probate, a relocation, a portfolio being wound down, a building that needs work: the reasons owners come to us before an agent are usually about time, privacy or condition rather than price. Some owners want a sale without the viewings; some want out of the long-let market without selling; some want the property to earn while they decide. A single conversation covers all three.
Rochester
What happens on a quiet sale
The trade on a quiet sale is simple: a price below open market value in exchange for speed, privacy and certainty. Investors on our list make any offer; the buyer pays our fee and you will know it in advance.
Rochester
Matching the route to the owner
Where the highest possible price is the goal and time is not pressing, the open market through an estate agent is the natural route. Where time, privacy or condition matter more, the quiet routes are worth comparing first.
Rochester
Keeping the property, losing the hassle
If the property needs furnishing for serviced accommodation, that is agreed up front. A company let or management begins once the certificates and consents are in place. Full management is where most owners should start: the property run as serviced accommodation, priced night by night and reported monthly, for a fee from 20% of booking revenue. A company let suits owners who want one fixed figure instead.
Rochester
Blocks, portfolios and new-build units
Completed new-build units that are slow to sell can go on a company let while they are marketed, with a break clause so each can come back when a buyer appears. One counterparty for many properties means one set of terms, one payment date and one point of contact, however many homes are involved.
Rochester
For estate and letting agents
Letting agents with a portfolio landlord can keep managing the homes that suit long lets and introduce the rest for serviced accommodation or a company let.
Rochester
What to have ready
Planning and use can matter, especially for a building that has been converted. Any condition that restricts how the homes may be occupied needs to be known early.
