Belvoir…the UK’s Best Lettings Agency Franchise 2010*

 

Belvoir is delighted to announce its official recognition as the UK’s Best Lettings Agency Franchise 2010 at the prestigious Lettings Agency of the Year Awards in association with The Sunday Times and The Times.Looking for a fresh start? Belvoir can offer a future in an award winning specific property lettings and management business with potential long-term asset value. Our proven business formula, initial and ongoing training and full support can help you to grow your business and become a part of our expanding network. Founded in 1995 by husband and wife team, Mike and Stephanie Goddard, the growth of the Belvoir brand can only be described as phenomenal and there are now over 140 franchised offices throughout the UK, and are now firmly on target to achieve its goal of 300 franchised offices in the next ten years.

Why choose Lettings?

The lettings market is a relatively recession proof industry, making this a great time to invest in a Belvoir franchise. Why?

• According to the January 09 Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) residential lettings survey the demand for rental property is now increasing at the fastest pace since the survey began in 1998.
   
• Close to 2.5 million homes in England are currently rented from over 500,000 private landlords – Rugg review, October 08.
   
• The proportion of under 30’s households renting has grown to 43% compared with 33% in 2001 – Rugg review, October 2008.

The private rental sector is very strong and growing rapidly. In 1971, 7% of UK households were privately rented. Today, two-thirds of rented property in the UK is owned by private landlords. This has risen 50% in the last ten years and Belvoir franchise predicts that this will increase by a further 50% in the next few years. These increases are fuelled by social changes, reduced job security, population mobility, changes in legislation and fluctuating interest rates.
