New landlord? Don't be nervous

We recently published a short video offering advice to new and prospective landlords. Sam Samuel talked about some considerations of importance to new landlords, from considering what property to purchase in the first place, to property maintenance and dealing with tenants.

After going over general points and potential risks, such as nuisance behaviour and rent arrears, Sam concludes that, with or without a managing agent such as Edward Ashdale, being a landlord can be a smooth-running and rewarding experience. 

However, Edward Ashdale are ready to help if an intermediary between landlord and tenant is needed to apply expertise and experience to ensure the letting out goes well and any emergencies are dealt with. In the case of a landlord with multiple tenants, such an arrangement could be even more valuable to ensure that the landlord has peace of mind that, whatever happens, any issues with his or her properties that arise are routinely dealt with effectively and efficiently.
