What is a rental valuation?
An assessment process designed to estimate your property’s market rental value, considering various factors including its characteristics, location, and the current market climate. A rental valuation with Lanes MK is always carried out by a professional with plenty of experience in the local property market in Milton Keynes.
How do you carry out valuation of rental property?
The valuation of rental property takes into consideration multiple aspects:
- Type of property: The nature of your property – be it a sprawling 4-bedroom detached home or a cosy 1-bedroom ground floor maisonette – plays a significant role in the valuation of rental property.
- Condition of property: Tenants gravitate towards homes that are move-in ready, shying away from properties that scream “fixer-upper”. A well-maintained, clean, and stylishly furnished property is more appealing.
- Internal and external features: From the quality of insulation to the convenience of a private driveway, these elements can significantly sway the rental valuation in Milton Keynes.
- Location and accessibility: Properties with seamless access to local transport and top-notch schools often command higher rents. Property valuation in Milton Keynes takes the surrounding amenities into account.
- Market dynamics: Supply and demand within your local area, alongside broader market trends and economic conditions, affects your property’s rental value.
What happens during a rental valuation in Milton Keynes?
Organising a rental valuation in Milton Keynes with us is straightforward. We’ll organise a visit at a time that works for both parties. When we arrive, we conduct a thorough physical inspection. We consider the size, number of bedrooms, condition and age of the property, any recent renovations or improvements, and overall layout and design. We also assess nearby features and amenities – gardens, parking, and proximity to good schools, shops and transport links.
How do I prepare my house for valuation?
A few simple steps can significantly enhance the appeal of your property during the valuation:
- Tidy up – de-clutter all rooms and put away any books or toys laying around.
- Open curtains and blinds to allow as much natural light in as possible.
- If you are looking to increase the value of your home quickly, consider small improvements like painting any tired fences or doors.
- Gather all the paperwork for your home. You might not need all of it, but it’s better to have it on hand.
What is the next step after property valuation?
If there are any questions you want to ask us, there will be time for that during or after the physical inspection. For instance, you might want to get some information about the current state of the market or have general questions about the process of renting your property out.
Following your valuation, we provide a comprehensive report detailing your property’s strengths, weaknesses, and current market standing. Should you decide to rent out your property through us, we can take you through the next steps.
