Helping prepare your property to let

Due to the increase in off plan investment over the last 10 years, Atwell Martin is pleased to offer our Pre-Let Service. The service is principally geared to rental investors who have acquired off plan units but have neither the time nor inclination to get involved with all the detailed issues in preparing it for the rental market.

Introduction

The Pre-Let service is designed to ensure the smooth progression of your property from acquisition to completion and is available in conjunction with our Letting and Management Service. Whether you are not locally based or simply too busy to get involved with time consuming practical issues, our team will oversee and report on the progress of your property from exchange of contracts. This can include carrying out handover inspection, arranging insurance and utility transfers and ensuring the property is correctly presented for the rental market.
