Different from the rest...

The first thing you notice about the Living Room Letting Agency is the image.  Gone is the ‘staid corporate’ look that you have come to expect from a High Street Letting Agency. Instead we have a welcoming and stylish appearance, a look which makes The Living Room stand out from the competition.

We realised when we entered this industry that the image of Estate and Letting Agents was not good. This was usually due to poor customer service and the resulting bad press.
So from a negative experience there grew a positive and successful business opportunity.
 
The ethos of The Living Room is to not only stand out from the competition but to stand above the competition in terms of how the premises look and also the customer service levels offered to tenants and landlords.

The Living Room Letting Agency Franchise Opportunity

From its inception the intention was always to offer The Living Room concept as a franchise opportunity.

The residential lettings industry is one that has shown excellent growth and that growth is reasonably assured for the foreseeable future, an important factor to be considered when you are looking to build a secure business with a high re-sale value.

‘Opportunity’ is partly down to ‘Timing’.....

..... and the time to grab that opportunity is NOW!

Due to difficulty in obtaining mortgages, increased divorce and separation rates, mobility requirements in employment increase in student population and  changing social attitudes to renting mean all of the above factors have contributed to the boom in demand for rented accommodation. Whilst no market can claim to be recession proof the fact is that people will always need rented accommodation.

 

Why Choose The Living Room?

A good question! We are certainly not the largest or the most established. We do however believe we are the most innovative and eye catching and are simply ‘different’ from the rest which is important when you are trying to establish yourself against the competition.

Our leading edge software system is both highly efficient and very user friendly.  The software package hosts not only tenant and landlord details but accounts, diary management, matching tenants with properties, absolutely everything you need in one system.  Importantly your database is fully integrated to the web site.

We offer a fully comprehensive launch package and training from industry professionals who know what it’s like to start a business from scratch and make it succeed.

Another plus factor is we will train you in your own premises if that is easier for you which means all training is relevant to your business and area.

 The Living Room Letting Agency - different from the rest- designed to stand out

We are delighted to have won the Best Strategic Design Award at the Best Business Awards in December.

As a company we are proud of our distinctive trade marked branding and design, and this has been confirmed by this award judged by professionalsfrom outside our industry.

Commenting on the award for Best Strategic Design to The Living Room Letting Agency, Andrew Areoff, Chairman of the Judges, said: "In a competitive area, this letting agency, now only three years old, took the view that branding was the best way to get noticed. And it took branding to the limit and down to the finest detail. The distinctive black and green logo and corporate design infiltrates everything including documents, cars, letting boards, websites, key rings and exhibition stands. The company is now planning to franchise the business - living proof that a brand is the most valuable asset a company has."

Most Importantly!! What can we offer you - our franchisee?

  • A great business opportunity to work with whoever you like, your partner, your family, your friends, business associates or by yourself.
  • Your business hours would be Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. There are occasions when it is unavoidable to work longer hours, however it is your business and you get the rewards.
  • A business that offers a high and positive cash flow.
  • Support from people who want you to succeed, your success is our success.
  • Taking on a business which is proving to be recession proof.

So are we right for each other?

We are not necessarily looking for individuals with previous lettings experience (although we don’t reject you if you have!) We do however seek ‘personalities’ who believe that good service is a right that customers have and not a privilege, individuals who will not only accept but relish the challenge of developing relationships with landlords.

Good time and man management skills are a must along with the ability to cope with the 101 challenges that crop up daily.

It could be you are from the forces, teaching, banking, civil service, finance or in fact any form of occupation if it is people/customer driven. We are happy to talk to couples, individuals, families or business associates.

The exciting part is being part of a team at the beginning of the launch of the franchising company.
