Selling Up? New service offered to landlord trade body members

The National Residential Landlords Association has teamed up with a property sales management firm to offer a new service to landlords selling up.

The NRLA has appointed Movewise, which offers three sales methods which can be used solely or in combination:

- Direct marketing to investors. The associations says this provides an additional benefit for NRLA members as they can register their buying interests with Movewise and be the first to find out about new investment opportunities;

- Managed multi-agent sales. Movewise uses advanced data analysis to identify the best estate agents to sell each individual property, then co-ordinate valuations from multiple agents. If the first selected agent does not deliver a buyer at the right price, the seller is free to switch agents at no additional cost.

- Auction. For properties that are more challenging to sell on the open market, or where a fast sale is essential, Movewise can arrange sale at auction.

A statement from the NRLA says the benefits for landlords include a strong results record by Movewise, which claims properties listed with it sell one month faster, and with 50 per cent fewer price reductions, than those listed with sole estate agents.

Additionally the association says Movewise taps into local expertise. It uses local bricks-and-mortar estate agents and has its own team of experienced property advisors who provide expert guidance and take care of the red tape, phone calls and emails that selling a property entails.

NRLA members qualify for discounted corporate rates with Movewise.
