Buy to Let

Whether you’re an established buy-to-let landlord looking to increase your portfolio or just starting out, we can help. We specialise in conveyancing for buy-to-let clients and understand the industry and the importance of working to your required timescales.

We act for buy to let investors throughout England and Wales and are aware that speed is of the essence. Whether you have bought a bargain at auction and want to lock out the competition or have a potential tenant lined up and are keen to start letting, we can negotiate a timescale that suits your investment.

We have expertise in buy-to-let conveyancing, which could save you that all-important extra time. There is no need to wait for searches as we can arrange for specialist insurance cover to protect both you and your mortgage lender from any losses should something affect the property’s value, saving you up to three weeks.

After completion

After you have completed on your purchase, we can continue to help with any letting-related queries and advice and offer a full range of Lease services. We can draw up bespoke tenancy agreements to suit you and your requirements and to protect your investment, and we are always on hand should you face a dispute with a tenant. We can advise you on your legal obligations as a landlord (for example, any required safety certificates and your obligations to repair) to help guide you through the regulatory minefield.

Problem tenants

Inevitably, tenant disputes are an occupational hazard when letting and a significant threat to potential revenue. Should things go wrong, our expertise can help you limit the damage and recoup your losses.

We have experience dealing with a number of tricky tenant difficulties, so whether it’s advice about whether to start Section 8 or Section 21 Possession Proceedings or why you probably should not seek arrears of rent as a ground for possession, we’re always on call for advice with your investment in mind.
