KEY TAKEAWAYS Where to start when you want to source serviced accommodations for rent 2 rent? Nic says it’s relatively cheap, but the very first thing you should do is to do your due diligence. Know the difference between a house and a flat. This is something you should remember when viewing properties. With houses that have a mortgage, know if subletting will be allowed. With flats, it depends on the existing lease. If the mortgage has restrictions you want to change, you can ask the mortgage provider if it can be edited. When subletting, always go first for the corporate lets. Nick tries to avoid online travel agents/booking sites since they charge big. Management contracts are legal documents that cover duties and responsibilities for landlords and investors. Think about the market you’re dealing with serviced accommodations. For example, contractors won’t be sharing beds, so it’s best to get set up one bed in a room. Nick asks these questions when he initially interviews the landlords: Is your property still available? If so, would you consider longer lets? Would you also consider corporate lets agreements? Where can you find your investors? Social media and event networking Nick’s tips: Know your investors. Do a check on their background and credibility. Make sure that the furniture, utilities, appliances, etc. are all sorted. Put everything in writing. BEST MOMENTS “Make sure you know what you’re looking for because most landlords don’t.” “You need to understand what market you are targeting, whether they be contractors, corporates, etc.” “For investors, just make sure they are who they say they are.” VALUABLE RESOURCES Falcon Property Services Gumtree ABOUT THE GUEST Nick Vint is a property specialist at Falcon Property Services, Ltd.
