Ross + Liddell and buy-to-let investors

Property services company Ross + Liddell has extended an estate agency division for buy-to-let investors looking to buy or sell traditional or modern flatted properties in Paisley.

Property services company Ross + Liddell has extended an estate agency division for buy-to-let investors looking to buy or sell traditional or modern flatted properties in Paisley.

Formed in response to a surge in demand for flatted properties at the lower end of the market, and in advance of the introduction of the forthcoming single seller survey system of buying and selling residential property, the extension of its estate agency offering means that Ross + Liddell can now provide investors with a one-stop-shop property service under the one roof.

Isabelle Doyle, estate agency manager at Ross + Liddell, said, 'As an established property services company, we have a comprehensive range of in-house expertise that traditional estate agents are not configured to cover.

And our wealth of knowledge and experience within the flatted sector allows us to provide a unique estate agency service to buy-to-let investors and developers.

'The introduction of the single seller survey will require home owners to assemble comprehensive information about their properties in advance of a sale.

As property managers, we are better placed than conventional estate agencies to furnish homeowners with all the necessary information about those properties we manage in a timely, efficient and cost-effective manner.

'Rather than targeting our estate agency offering to traditional owner/occupiers, we are offering buy-to-let investors a range of services they simply could not access elsewhere, including surveying, arranging insurance, securing tenants and the ongoing management of the property on their behalf.' Buy-to-let investors are currently actively seeking properties in Paisley, with tenement properties around the £45-£60,000 price range proving particularly popular.

Ross + Liddell's estate agency marketing activities include initial valuation advice on asking and target prices, production of sales schedules, posting details on different websites, circulation of a property enquiry register and newspaper advertising to an agreed budget.

And to get the new estate agency service up and running, Ross + Liddell is offering existing clients the benefit of a loyalty bonus in the form of a discounted fee of 0.75% of a property's sale price - half the conventional estate agency rate.

Another of Ross + Liddell's services is management of residential lettings.

There is an ever growing demand for rented accommodation and the firm is pleased to offer its expertise and experience in this field.
