About the property…
This flat is situated in an apartment block near East Croydon station. Croydon is in the middle of a large scale redevelopment: Boris Johnson pledging to invest £23 million in the area. Croydon is also a large business district, housing amongst others the Nestle Tower and the Centrale shopping centre. Properties within regeneration projects are great opportunities for buy-to-let investors, as over time rents should increase as the area grows in influence and affluence.
What we like about the listing…
- Professional photography: we really believe it helps find you tenants faster (cutting down your void period). They make your property look expansive – opening up every room so tenants get a clearer picture. They also make you look more professional as a landlord; subliminally imbedding a professional “working” relationship.
- Each section of the description begins with an appealing word that just makes tenants want to read on. Words like “new, newly, beautifully, freshly and spacious” are perfect for describing your property – you just have to make sure your property lives up the description when you conduct the viewings. Don’t oversell.
- Don’t entrench your description with waffle; get your points across quickly. The opening sentence of the first paragraph is “Location: 8 minutes walk from Croydon Station”. Simple.
What you can learn from this…
By using a combination of professional photography, a floor-plan, enticing vocabulary and succinct statements – you could find yourself letting your property within days, to great tenants.
