Just this weekend I was amazed at the amount of flyers from letting agents wanting to let the property I'm in. Were addressed to 'The home owner but my landlord is a subsidiary of a Housing Association and they do their own advertising and letting. I live in an area full of flats that are predominently rented out privately.
I actually received THREE flyers from Haart Two arrived Friday and one arrived yesterday. If they afford to post duplicates like this then I would hate to know how much they are charging Landlords and tenants for their services.
The number of tenants on their books fill me with woe. How many of them would have otherwise bought a home of their own if property prices were more reasonable?
Coincidentally, I should be moving to another flat in a few weeks time. My landlord had 4 groups of potential tenants waiting to view on Friday alone (only 2 turned up, however). Flats in this part of Norwich, that I am now tired of, will let very quickly.
