I am buying to let. What will the property search company do?
The property search company will help a buyer to let clients in the following way. First, they will go into the market and they will produce a range of properties which seem appropriate for the budget and the kind of brief that the client has produced. They will present those to the client, and they should be investigating, of course, the likely rental income that will be achieved from those properties. However, markets do go up and markets do go down. So it's hard for the property search company to guarantee what sort of rental income will be achieved. But, the property search company will be taking a very, very hard look at what developers say about the rental income that could be achieved.
