Frequently asked questions about switching
Can I switch with existing tenants in situ?
Absolutely. The majority of our landlords that have switched from another letting agency did so mid-tenancy. The existing tenancy agreement is between the landlord and the tenant.
Do you charge a fee for the switch process?
No, we don't charge anything for our letting agent switch service.
What are the most common reasons for landlords switching letting agents?
The most common reasons for landlords switching letting agent in Glasgow is lack of communication, lack of accountability from the agent, and poorly managed maintenance. These are all basic elements of Property Management, but are the recurring shortfalls we hear of from landlords that switch to us.
How long does the process of switching letting agent take?
It depends on your current agent, and their notice period. Typically one month's notice is standard, but they could have a two or three month notice period. We will work in line with this.
