There is no doubt that HMO's are a more profitable investment than single let properties, however there are over 100 pieces of ever-changing legislation placing rights and obligations on landlords, with heavy fines for non-compliance.
This coupled with the ongoing day-to-day management responsibilities, many underestimate the time, effort and knowledge it takes to manage HMO's safely and legally, let alone keeping tenants happy.
That's why the majority of HMO landlord's choose to use a managing agent. And with HMO's being a very specialist area requiring unique knowledge, systems and processes, you need to be sure that you choose an agent that understands HMO's 'inside out'.
Our Directors, Sam and Kiera, who are heavily involved in the day-to-day running of Fika, are the main contacts for all our landlord clients. They have over 15 years combined experience in HMO's, are both NRLA accredited and are also both HMO landlord's themsleves.
And unlike Property Managers at other agencies, our team are also trained in HMO compliance to ensure they not only understand how HMO's work in reality, but also to ensure that they are compliant when carrying out their daily tasks and responsibilities.
We don't like our services to be purely transactional. We prefer to build real, trusted relationships.
In an industry renowned for poor service, we believe that providing a reassuringly reliable service is actually really easy, and when we asked the landlords we work with what parts of our service they valued the most, there were:
We pay you your tenants rent within 24 hours of receipt, or the next working day! You will also receive a payment advice for each payment made, plus a full monthly statement at the end of each month.
We can even hold a maintenance float for you so we don't need to bother you for payment of contractor invoices.
Whats more, download the PayProp Owner App to get a full insight of the financials for all your properties!
Our partnership with Flatfair means we can offer landlords up to 10 weeks protection rather than the capped 5 weeks with traditional deposits, along with speedy end of tenancy payouts within 10 days of charges being agreed.
And did you know that deposit-free properties let up to 25% faster and attract up to 70% more tenants giving us instant access to a wider tenant market?
All this without the common misconception of compromising on the 'quality' of tenant?
We don't charge any set up fees. Zero. None. Nada.
Because when you pay an agent a set up fee, you are effectively paying them to give them your business, which we believe is wrong.
We want to work with you on a long term basis and therefore remove any upfront costs to you.
Go on, book another holiday... you deserve it!
In the property industry, tenants don't tend to be called 'customers', but that is exactly what tenants are, and without them, no one gets paid.
In this day and age, tenants should be treated like customers, however sadly, many are still not. Therefore, not only do we deliver our exceptional service to you, but we deliver it to your tenants (customers) too, and the happier they are, the longer they will stay and the more profitable your investments will be.
There is little worse than being tied into a long term management contract with an expensive get out clause, all whilst receiving a poor service, and with so many agencies to choose from, how do you really know you are making the right choice?
That's why we offer a 3 month trial so you can experience our unrivalled service for yourself before deciding whether or not to work with us longer term.
Arthur Online is one of the most sophisticated property management softwares in the industry and helps us ensure that we keep your properties compliant at all times, from onboarding tenants to ensuring maintenance certificates never expire.
As the landlord, it is important that you can see the daily ongoings of your properties too. Arthur's Owner App will give you access to key information in real time, including:
