Selling Property
Should I Sell or Rent My Property?
A common question with no universal answer - it comes down to your finances, plans and appetite for being a landlord.
Reasons to sell
You need the equity for another purchase, you don't want the ongoing responsibility of being a landlord, or the property doesn't suit letting well in its current condition or location.
Reasons to rent it out
You can afford to hold it, local rental demand is strong, and you're comfortable either managing a tenancy yourself or paying an agent to do it. Renting also keeps the option to sell later, once you've had time to decide.
Getting the numbers to compare
Get a sale valuation from a local estate agent, and a free rental valuation from us. With both figures, and a realistic view of costs such as management, maintenance and certificates, you can compare the two properly. If you decide to let, we can find the tenant or manage the whole tenancy.
