TIPS ON BUYING
IN DOCKLANDS
Estate Agents
Let a good number of agents in Docklands
know your needs - our 'one e-mail to all Docklands Estate
Agents' button at the top of the homepage is ideal for
this.
Provide estate agents with all your contact
details and e-mail addresses - if what you are looking
for comes on the market in Docklands you want to be
the first to know!
Work closely with the estate agents, they
have local knowledge of the property market and house
prices in Docklands. Make them want to help
you.
The Property
Work out your budget:
- Standard lending ratios are usually three
times the principal earner's gross income plus one
times the second, or two and a half times joint gross
income.
- Consider your existing equity, savings,
moving costs and your likely general credit rating.
Decide what you want to buy. Make a wish
list of essential criteria:
- Style, size, age, numbers of rooms, garaging,
parking, garden etc.
- Still remain open-minded - lots
of people surprise themselves with what they end up
buying.
Consider the wider picture:
- Location, communications, local facilities,
schools, clubs
- Is this a long term move? How will your
property needs vary in future?
Viewing
Arrive in the area early to get a good feel
of the neighbourhood, and prepare any local questions
you may wish to ask.
Do not make an instant judgement. Do not
be influenced by the sociability of the vendors, their
taste in furnishings or the (un)tidiness.
Assess the accommodation that the property
provides.
Assess the general state of repair: Roof,
walls, windows and doors, plasterwork, wiring, plumbing
and heating, kitchen fittings and bathroom sanitary
ware.
Have improvements been carried out / will
they be required (e.g. double glazing, insulation, D.P.C.,
kitchen)?
Assess the neighbours, the street and the
general condition of other properties around - is this
street reliably steady, on the up, or going downhill?
Consider where the morning and evening sun
will be.
If you are interested try to revisit at
a different time on a different day when the area may
be busier.
Action for buying a house in

TIPS ON SELLING
IN DOCKLANDS
The Estate Agent
Ask a few Docklands agents to value your
property. Be objective about what they say and do not
be unduly critical if is not what you wanted to hear!
Do not necessarily choose the agent with
the cheapest fee; you want your property advertised
and 'sold properly' in all respects.
Choose an agent that belongs to a professional
body such as:
- The National Association of Estate Agents
(NAEA)
- The "Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors
(RICS)
- Ombudsman Estate Agency
Read ALL the small print if you decide
to use a sole agent. Multiple agents could cost you
more, but may increase your chances of selling your
property.
State any fixtures and fittings to be included
in the sale.
Make it clear to the agent the minimum value
you are presently willing to accept from a buyer.
Your Property
Take a critical look at the outside and
inside of your home and decide what small items are
realistic to quickly improve.
The exterior of your home will be the buyer's
first impression. Ensure the garden is neat and tidy,
outside lights are clean and working, all fixtures such
as door handles are secure.
Prepare your home by cleaning, repainting
(if necessary) and completing any unfinished DIY job!
Create more space. Pack away, throw away or take to
the charity shop any unnecessary items and be ruthless.
The more you do now, the less cluttered your house will
look, and the less packing you will have to do when
you move.
Viewing
Arrange viewing at times that you can realistically
have the property looking good, kitchen cleared, grass
cut etc. The property needs to be tidy.
Create a nice atmosphere, pleasant fragrances,
and flowers and turn the television off. In winter light
any fires and have the heating at a comfortable level.
In summer open windows.
Be ready for questions about the property,
neighbours and the locality.
Be clear about your own reasons for moving-on,
time scales and flexibility.
Leave it to your agent do any serious negotiating.
Action for selling property in
Docklands
We have listed your main local agents. E-mail
them a request to contact you for initial discussions
about the possibility of them being chosen to sell you
property.

TIPS ON RENTING
IN DOCKLANDS
- Let lots of agents know what you
are looking for so you get a really good selection
to choose from.
- Inform the agent of your criteria (location,
budget, furnished/unfurnished, occupation date requirement,
tenancy period and any other aspects that are important
to you).
- Expect to pay a deposit of at least one
months rent, possibly more. Possibly some administration
charges.
- You may be required to provide references.
- Ensure you read and understand the tenancy
agreement. The Citizens Advice Bureau may check this
for you. Clarify what is NOT included in the rental
fee, such as council tax, utility bills, ground maintenance
etc.
- Examine the inventory prepared by the
agent and keep a copy.
- Check restrictions: sub-letting, pets
etc. Can you redecorate?
- Notify defects in writing as soon as
they become apparent (even if you do not want them
remedied).
- Establish what is covered under maintenance
(boilers, refrigerators, radiators etc.).
- Usually, you will not have to deal with
the landlord directly. Should you have any problems
or queries, direct them to your agent first.
- Other issues to consider are, parking,
neighbours, noise levels, public transport availability
etc.
Action to rent a house or flat
in Docklands
Notify all the main local agents by sending
'one e-mail to all Letting Agents' with your requirements.

TIPS ON LETTING
OUT YOUR PROPERTY IN DOCKLANDS
Choose a letting agent that is registered
with one of the following:
- The Association of Residential Letting
Agents (ARLA)
- The National Approved Letting Scheme
(NALS)
- The National Association of Estate Agents
(NAEA)
- The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors
(RICS)
- The UK Association of Letting Agents
(UKALA)
Get a good contract which will be the Tenancy
Agreement. Think about any restrictions you wish to
place on the tenant and the use of your property.
Try not to be too tough - if you exclude
smokers, pets, students, small children and short term
lets, you will narrow the market for your property considerably.
Ask for a rent that is realistic and affordable
to your potential tenants. The big difference in profit
at the end of the year will be dependent upon how long
the property stood empty - reduce the voids!
Examine our 'buyers tips' for guidelines
on presenting the property in an attractive manner.
Action to let property in Docklands
Notify the local Letting Agents your property
is available and find out the likely rent that could
be attracted for your property.
