WHY USE CROWN HOUSE ESTATES TO LET
We’re different

If you think all Estate Agents are the same, you haven’t worked with Crown House Estates. We’re different. Everything we do will give you an altogether better experience in letting your property through us.

We have a team of experienced lettings specialists suited to all types of landlords. Whatever style of landlord you want to be, we’re here to help. If you’re just looking to find a tenant for your property, or you prefer a team to oversee every aspect of your let, we have a package to suit.

RENTAL VALUATION
Deciding on an asking rent

There’s no right or wrong when it comes to a rental valuation. If you were to get a number of opinions, there is likely to be quite a variation; from the realistic to the optimistic and all points in-between. What agents give you is more a view on "marketing price" than a precise value and, as such, the numbers can be very different. We aim to give you a range, an explanation and help so that you can decide on an asking price and the right strategy for you. Our objective is to get the best possible rent for you and there are different ways of achieving this depending on the property and the amount of activity in the property market.

FIRST IMPRESSION COUNT
Showing your property at its best

It is said that tenants make their minds up about a property within seconds of their visit and it pays to present your house or flat at its best. The more effort you put in, the better the rent you stand to achieve and therefore we will give you as many tips as we can about what is worth spending time and money on and how to best maximise the full potential of your property.

Rightly or wrongly, most people will judge a property on first sight. Houses or flats in good condition will attract a superior tenant and a higher rental return. It’s therefore worth investing some time and money in maintaining your property to an attractive standard.

Most rental properties need some kind of improvement works every four to five years. With the right approach, the work you do will pay dividends fast.
