Types of Landlords – Which One Are You?
At David Clarke Estate Agents, we understand that landlords have different motivations and property goals. Whether you are new to letting or an experienced investor, working with knowledgeable letting agents in Herne Bay can make property management effortless.
The Accidental Landlord
This is typically a homeowner who initially intended to sell but chose to rent instead—often due to market conditions. While this may start as a short-term solution, many successful investors began as accidental landlords. If you’re in this situation, our experienced letting agents in Herne Bay can help you navigate the rental process smoothly.
The “Pension” Landlord
With traditional pensions delivering unpredictable returns, many investors opt for buy-to-let properties, which offer rental yields of over 6% per annum and long-term capital appreciation. If you’re looking for a secure long-term investment, our Herne Bay letting agents can assist with finding and managing the right property.
The “Parent” Landlord
Many parents spend significant amounts on student accommodation during their children's university years. A smarter approach can be purchasing a property in a university town and letting out rooms to other students, often covering mortgage payments. These investments remain in high demand. Our letting agents in Herne Bay can provide expert guidance on managing student rentals.
The “Inheritance” Landlord
Receiving a property as an inheritance can be an unexpected windfall. Rather than selling, some landlords choose to rent it out, generating passive income. However, inherited properties may require refurbishment before letting. Our skilled Herne Bay letting agents can advise on maximizing your rental income and making the process seamless.
