Renters are more likely to renew their contract if they are renting through an agent than directly through a landlord, 75% compared to 68% (Property Academy).
Yet nearly half of all private landlords were not using an agent to let or manage their homes, according to a survey of private landlords (DLUHC).
Over half (53%) of renters who have an opinion on who they rent from, prefer to use a letting agent rather than deal directly with a landlord (HomeLet).
The private rented sector has doubled over the last ten years, accounting for 19% of households. 43% of landlords owned just one rental property (DLUHC) and would benefit from the services of a professional agent.
