The Lettings Industry

Successful businesses are built on sufficient customer demand coupled with the longevity of that demand, not on ‘fads’ or ‘current ‘trends’.

That is why Residential Lettings presents an exciting opportunity to build a substantial long term and lucrative business.

Look at the facts:

• Properties rented via Private Landlords doubled in the last 10 years
• 1st Time Mortgages remain difficult to obtain
• Initial deposits required to buy a house continue to increase
• The average age for 1st time buyers is now late thirties
• Employment mobility resulting in re-locations and subsequent rentals, is now common place

All these reasons and more are why the Lettings Industry presents you with the ideal business opportunity.'The Adventure Starts Here'

The Business Model

Alex Clark recognises that with the advent of the internet the Lettings Industry has evolved. That is why they have constructed two business formats in order  to offer the opportunity to own your own letting agency to as wide a catchment as possible.

Format 1: Is a Non Premises Based model
allowing you run your lettings business from home. Access to all the major property websites via the Alex Clark Brand gives you an ‘online shop window’ to market your property portfolio to potential tenants.

This home based model combines the best practice of the traditional premises based Letting Agent, with the technology employed by the ‘Online Agent’. By initially establishing and running your business from a home office you can benefit from a lower initial entry fee £10,500 + VAT, (plus relevant equipment package) as well as avoiding the additional overheads associated with premises

Format 2: Is a Premises Based model
Whilst the internet plays an important part within the Lettings Industry, the traditional ‘High Street’ premises is still the first port of call for tenants looking for rented properties. Additionally, your shop frontage presents a strong, professional and importantly visible image to landlords, your future clients.

You still have access to all the major property websites via the Alex Clark Brand, supporting your 'High Street' presence with an ‘online shop window’ to market your property portfolio to potential tenants. 

Alex Clark Head Office will advise you in the selection of suitable premises and provide you with a comprehensive business ‘launch package’ included within your initial Franchise Fee of £15,500 + VAT (plus relevant equipment package).
