As a landlord, it is paramount that you work with a lettings agent you can trust. If you have a property to let, your objective will be focused on maximising your rental yields whilst minimising any rental voids. Butler & Stag has the lettings know-how to help you achieve this. With landlord advice and services, property marketing, tenant search services, tenancy agreement coordination, inventory management, tenancy deposit protection and much more, we are the full service lettings agent of choice. Whether you own one buy to let rental property, or you're a landlord with a large investment property portfolio, our lettings specialists can help with everything from handling offer negotiations to preparing the tenancy agreement. Our step by step process below offers an insight in to what you can expect when letting your property.
Accurate ValuationAt Butler & Stag, we pride ourselves on having intimate knowledge of all of the areas that we operate in. It take years to gain a true understanding of the market place in an area, and even the most experienced agents must never take their eye off the ball, particularly in London. Our Lettings Valuers are some of the most experienced agents in their field. They will be able to advise you on necessary works to get the best possible price; current market conditions, tax implications if you will be travelling overseas, as well as the necessary consents for letting your property.
Our valuations will always be supported with relevant comparable evidence of recently let properties, be wary of an agent that doesn't do the same.
Efficient but never pushy! We understand that until you have established a value, it is difficult to reach a decision. We love nothing more than building new relationships early on and visiting different properties, never feel that you are wasting our time, even if you are months away from making a decision.
If you would like to establish the current market value for your property, please do request a free, no-obligation valuation.
Choosing Your Estate AgentIt is critical that you get along with the individual that values your property. This will be a 'two way' and potentially long standing relationship, you need to have complete faith and trust that your property and your interests are the priority of your agent.
It is likely that you will be dealing with one of the partners of our company. Our future success is based on the service that you receive and how well we get the job done. We will act quickly and efficiently in commencing the marketing process and by keeping you fully informed along the way.
Check the agents on-line reviews via Google or Allagents, if others have had an excellent service, it is likely you will receive the same.
The ServiceFrom simply finding the tenants and arranging the move-in, to overseeing the entire tenancy, we are able to tailor our service to suit your requirements. Below is a breakdown of our Let Only, Rent Collection and Full Management Services.
Safety RegulationsA number of regulations govern the letting of residential properties and all landlords must comply. This legislation includes the safety of gas appliances and electrical equipment, in addition to furniture and furnishings that are included in the tenancy.
As professional agents, under the jurisdictions of NALS (National Approved Lettings Scheme), Safe Agent and Ombudsman Scheme, we will advise you of the law, your obligations and the implications of non-compliance. We can also help you ensure your property complies with this legislation.
Preparing Your Home To LetIf your property is ready to market, we will arrange an immediate visit for one of our Professional Photographers, who will also create the floor plan and measurements. In order for the photographs to do your home justice make sure that all clutter is cleared away, furniture moved to maximise space, wires hidden, and that all lights are working and windows clean. Showing your home in the best light will get the best tenants through the door. Our Managers will be more than happy to offer you advice as to whether the property needs refurbishing or furniture needs to be provided.
MarketingUpon receipt of signed Terms of Business, your property will immediately be uploaded to our award winning website butlerandstag.uk and the network of major property portals that we work alongside. Our social media platform is updated throughout each day, ensuring that your property reaches the widest possible audience.
Our team of highly trained and experienced lettings consultants, will be promoting your property to our extensive database of prospective tenants and corporate contacts ensuring that viewings are booked quickly and efficiently.
Butler & Stag are able to design a property-specific marketing campaign, maximising exposure of your property and ensuring we achieve the best possible price, on a timescale that suits you.
ViewingsWe will accompany all prospective tenants to your property, viewings can be arranged to suit your requirements. Open six days a week and available before and after work, the opportunity to accommodate a viewing is never missed. If needs be, we are also available on Sundays via appointment only.
Whilst we appreciate that not every landlord is comfortable with leaving us with keys, if you can, it enables us to offer tenants a more flexible service and increases our chances of finding suitable tenants quickly.
Where possible viewings are clustered together for maximum efficiency, this prevents disruption to your daily movements and helps create desire to those viewing.
Offer StageOnce an offer has been agreed with Butler & Stag and a holding deposit has been taken, we will organise comprehensive referencing for each prospective tenant through an independent regulated agency. References include personal, work, bank and previous landlord information and history. Butler & Stag will draw up the Tenancy Agreement and send this firstly out to you and then to the tenants for signing. It is during this stage that we can organise any relevant safety certificates, cleaning, an inventory and check in if they are required. Once paperwork has been completed and Butler & Stag are in receipt of all required monies from the tenants they can move in. At this stage you will need to ensure the property is ready having taken meter readings, informed energy suppliers and the council of the change of name (if we are managing, this will be carried out by ourselves).
Move InOn the day of move in, one of our agents or inventory clerks will meet the tenants at the property and a handover will take place. Congratulations, together we have let your property!

When viewing a new rental property, it is important to check several things.
General Condition - Does the property require any cosmetic improvements? If yes, then ensure that you are specific and list each issue that requires attention when making your offer. This should include walls/rooms that require painting, carpets that need replacing, loose door handles that need tightening.
Furniture - If the property is furnished, is the furniture of a suitable standard? does it require cleaning/fixing? and does each item carry the relevant fire safety label?
Utilities - Check the gas, water and electricity meters for payment methods. Turn on the water to check the pressure, is it strong enough?
Heating - What type of heating does the property have and is it sufficient enough to heat the entire property? Gas, central heating is most cost effective but uncommon in modern properties, which retain heat more efficiently. If it's gas, an annual inspection should be carried out (by law) by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Ask to see the certificate!
Security - Are the doors and windows secure, and do they open and close properly? Are there burglar and smoke alarms and are both in working order?
Outside - If there is a garden or communal areas, ask who is responsible for the upkeep.
Cleaning; Does the property require a professional clean, don't expect this to be carried out of you haven't requested it.
NB. NB. Make sure that your offer and its terms are accepted in writing by the Landlord(s) or their agents before proceeding. Agree a date before move in to go back to the property and ensure all works are complete, delay the move in date if they are not.
What Happens NextButler & Stag will prepare the Tenancy. You will be contacted by one of our Lettings Administrators who will assist you through to move in.
References; Butler & Stag use a professional referencing company to carry out full references for each tenant that will be living in the property. You should expect to receive an email from our referencing company, containing a link for you to follow and complete relevant information about yourself. Credit checks, previous rental history and employment status' will all be checked.
Tenancy Agreement (TA); Butler & Stag will produce the tenancy agreement which is a legal binding contract between you as the Tenant(s) and the Landlord(s). It will detail the responsibilities and rights of both the Tenant(s) and Landlord(s). Please ensure you read through the TA, thoroughly ensuring that you are happy with all of its content.
Payment; Before your move in can take place, we require cleared funds in our bank account for all associated costs for your rental. This will include the agreed amount of rent paid in advance (usually one, six or twelve months), a damage deposit (usually the equivalent of six weeks rent) and any fees being charge by Butler & Stag.
View Our Rental Fees
Inventory/Check In; This is a full and detailed report providing evidence of the exact cosmetic state of the property and its contents upon move in. Whether you are meeting an Inventory Clerk at the property or receiving the Inventory separately, please ensure that you check the report thoroughly before signing.
Move In; We can meet you at the property or in the office to handover the keys and wish you well in your new home. We will arrange standing order payments for your rental payments and inform you of who is responsible for day to day management.

The marketing of your property is the next stage in the process, which at Butler & Stag includes the following component parts:
Prior to viewings, the Butler & Stag sales team will preview the property to ensure everyone involved knows exactly what's on offer and can speak to potential buyers with knowledge and confidence.
When it comes to negotiating an offer, we as your estate agent, will handle the process, going back and forth until a bid is hopefully accepted. This may not always be the highest one, however, especially if you have more than one offer and one of the prospective buyers is cash or perhaps chain free. A mortgage Agreement in Principle or the ability to work to your preferred timescales can also swing a sale.
It's important to us that a seller never feels pressured or forced into accepting an offer, and it's worth remembering that as your estate agent, we are acting on your behalf, not the buyer's. We will therefore work with you to ensure you get the best possible price from someone in the best possible position for you. We want your decision to be made on an informed and well-educated basis, and as such we will always advise on other interest, viewings, feedback, general market conditions and comparable properties that have sold.When it comes to negotiating an offer, we as your estate agent, will handle the process, going back and forth until a bid is hopefully accepted. This may not always be the highest one, however, especially if you have more than one offer and one of the prospective buyers is cash or perhaps chain free. A mortgage Agreement in Principle or the ability to work to your preferred timescales can also swing a sale.
Accepting an offerYou have accepted an offer and the sale has been agreed, now both parties need to instruct a solicitor. If you know one with glowing references, then great, but if not, we know plenty that specialise in conveyancing that we'd be delighted to recommend. Once we have both sets of solicitors in place, we send out a Memorandum of Sale to all parties involved, detailing the agreement and enabling the solicitors to make contact.
Conveyancing and surveyConveyancing complete and your buyer's mortgage offer agreed, now contracts can finally be exchanged. Before exchange, however, your purchaser will need to lodge their deposit (usually ten per cent of the purchase price) and a completion date needs to be agreed with everyone in the chain, after which the transaction becomes legal and binding for both parties.
CompletionThe big day has arrived and it's time to load up the removal van, that's if you haven't done so already. Before that, however, your buyer's solicitor must transfer the remaining amount due on the purchase price. Once your solicitor has received monies outstanding then that's it - completion has taken place. This will be confirmed via a phone call to both you and us, after which we will arrange for the new owner to collect the keys. Completion monies will be transferred to you, usually minus your solicitor and estate agent fees.
