Property investment: buy-to-let
We help clients looking for an investment property to assess and select the properties likely to give the best return.

The Chesterton Humberts approach
We market your property strategically, using different media, to find suitable tenants as efficiently as possible. We arrange viewings at suitable times and accompany prospective tenants on viewings (unless otherwise agreed).
You will be informed of all offers received on the property and once you have agreed an offer we obtain all relevant references on your behalf. If you are satisfied with the references, we will prepare the relevant type of Tenancy Agreement for both you and the tenant to sign.
Landlords also benefit from our excellent contacts with the corporate market and relocation agents through our Corporate Services Department. This enables Chesterton Humberts to secure blue-chip tenants with the aim of maximising return for its clients.
