Course Description
In our busy and competitive world, two factors are recognised as key benchmarks for success - quality and professionalism. It is no different in the letting and management industry. As a vibrant sector offering an important service to private individuals and companies, there is an essential need to be seen as thoroughly professional at all times, to be aware of the market, and to constantly strive to meet recognised codes of practice.
Letting is booming! Chartered surveyors say tenant numbers are rising faster than at any other time in the last four years*. As house prices rise first time buyers are pushed back into to the rental market. The qualification offers practical guidance on everything from vetting a tenant and securing a contract to carrying out an inventory, moving a tenant in and out seamlessly and organising paperwork. It also offers an introduction to the increasingly complex legislation in the letting and management field.
