This blog follows the property market in Northampton with a particular emphasis on buy-to-let. On here you'll find general commentary about the market, plus properties that may represent decent buys. I own a large estate agency in Northampton and am myself a landlord with an established portfolio. If you're looking to invest, but are unsure what will work best, I'm happy to offer a (free) second opinion. If you have a property to sell I can help with that too!

Need somewhere to rent? See a video of potential properties!

As part of our aim to make lettings easier, we're now offering video clips of many of the properties we have available. Have a look at this flat, available at £595PCM!


We're streaming these videos from our own websites: http://www.bevloirlettings.com/northampton and www.belvoirlettings.com/rugby so tenants can see what they are getting before they view. We're not 100% there yet - not all properties have videos, and our technique will get better. At least it's something else the competition can copy! Good news is:
  1. This is great for potential tenants who aren't in the area or who don't have the time to view multiple properties.
  2. It's great when the existing tenant isn't giving easy access for viewings.
  3. It's great when the existing tenant isn't the tidiest of creatures!
  4. It weeds out the potential tenants who want to view everything, but still can't decide what they like.
  5. It works for properties that look good inside, but maybe aren't that that photogenic externally!
We'll be working over coming months to improve our videos. Tips and feedback, as ever, will be much appreciated.


Richard.
