Often clients prefer to rent a property first in order to get to know the local area before committing to buy. We know just how difficult it can be juggling busy careers and home lives whilst at the same time trawling through websites and property publications. Often valuable time and effort is wasted viewing properties which looked perfect on line but are a huge disappointment in reality.
Many clients wish to rent property in the Winchester or Petersfield area initially, in order to get into the right catchment area for a certain school whilst also being in a strong purchasing position for when their ideal property to buy becomes available. It also familiarises them with the local area so they know exactly where they would like to put down long term roots.
Letting agents value clients introduced to them through Mulberry Home Search since they see them as serious prospective tenants having already committed to a Search Agreement and Initial Registration Fee. We can therefore often secure rentals for clients which are being marketed quietly as well as properties which have not yet come onto the rental market.
Initial Consultation Meeting
We spend time with you to build a precise brief of your exact requirements and will advise you of what is achievable within your budget. Our experience of the property market, knowledge of the area and an insight into our client’s specific property needs are key to recommending the right property.
The Property Search
We will spend time viewing the properties which match your exact needs and requirements but will only suggest viewings on those which fit the bill perfectly. We will work quickly and persistently contacting our extensive list of agents who trust us to find committed tenants. Regular reports will be sent to you to keep you informed of the properties we have viewed which may be of interest to you but you will not need to waste valuable time travelling to Winchester to view a large number of unsuitable properties.
The Viewing Tour
Once we have shortlisted the properties which best suit your requirements, we will collect you from a convenient place and take you on a viewing tour – advising you on the positives and negatives of each property and location.
Orientation Tours
For those new to the area we can provide valuable orientation tours during which you can tap into our local knowledge of schools, entertainment, sports clubs, doctors surgeries, dentists, transport links and leisure facilities. We believe clients can make far better informed decisions with regard to buying a property when they feel more familiar with the local area.
The Negotiation
Once a suitable property has been found, Mulberry Home Search can, if required, negotiate the rental price and lease terms as well as being available for check in.
For Expats Re-locating to the UK
Engaging the services of Mulberry Home Search can facilitate the hugely difficult task of trying to find a home in the UK whilst still living abroad. We can not only tell you about schools and the local area but save you a great deal of time and effort by short listing the houses for you to view on your brief visits to the UK.
