Another Yes Lets 💛

A lovely couple got in touch with us. They both work within the church and, because they have a home through their work, they’d started thinking about buying a property for their future and retirement.

But they also really wanted to find a way of using that property to do some good.

They’d never bought an investment property before, so we talked through budgets and rents, put them in touch with a trusted mortgage adviser and helped them look at properties.

When they found this one, we helped them work out what to offer — and actually suggested offering £5,000 less than they were going to.

It was accepted. Woohoo! 😂

Once they got the keys, we photographed it, got it advertised and arranged 7 viewings within a few days.

There was plenty of interest, but from our very first conversation they’d hoped their property could help a family who really needed it.

And that’s what they chose to do. 💛

A lovely family with three young daughters, referred to us through Nottingham City Council after living in temporary accommodation, have now moved in.

The girls have their own bedrooms, a back garden and somewhere they can settle at an affordable rent.

This is probably the biggest full journey we’ve been part of with a landlord, and we’ve absolutely loved being able to use all our years of property experience from beginning to end.

Usually we’re involved in one part of the journey. This time we got to be there for pretty much all of it.

And it’s been a really lovely one. 💛

We just LOVE this!! 😂

Another new listing for Yes Lets!

A one-bedroom apartment overlooking the square in Nottingham city centre 🏡

T is one of our tenants and is clearly far more charismatic and charming than any of us at Yes Lets.

He’s great at DIY, but we really believe this could be his calling 😂😂

Surely this deserves a bit of love in the comments?! 👏😂

AUGUST- 22 TENANCIES AGREED 🔑🎉🏆

What an absolutely cracking month for Yes Lets!
Our best month so far 🤩

We have filled HMOs, moved families into homes, ventured into student lettings for the first time and somehow, now have just ONE room left available across all of our HMOs!

We have also been instructed to take over another 8 tenancies from another agent.

Vieiwngs in the evenings, weekends, bank holidays always being flexible and, as always, communication is everything.

Live video tours have been an absolute winner!

Very proud of the Yes Lets team💛

Now we just need some more houses… 😂

Landlords if you have a property in Nottingham or the surrounding areas, we would love to hear from you. 🏡

This one has been a long time coming...

This flat has sat empty for well over two years while the sale slowly worked its way through the system.

At a time when Nottingham desperately needs more homes, hopefully this will soon be a thing of the past

One thing it did remind us is how important it is to have the right people around you.

In this case, the modern method of auction and the solicitor the vendor was referred to made the whole process much more difficult than it needed to be.

Having worked in the property industry for years, we've seen this more than once. Not every property is suited to auction, and not every solicitor is the right fit for every client.

Once a local solicitor became involved, everything moved really smoothly.

We paid £60,000 for it, we think it'll be worth around £125,000 once it's finished, but more importantly it'll be another empty home brought back into use.

We will try and share a few updates as we go.

And yes... that is a very poor version of a sunken bath, shall we keep it?

When we started Yes Lets, this was one of the things we hoped would happen.

That there were other people out there who had a property and would love to help someone who needed a home.

We always knew Yes Lets would grow much quicker if we brought other people with us rather than just trying to buy houses ourselves.

That's really what a social enterprise is all about.

Not just doing good yourself, but creating opportunities for other people to be part of it too.

This message popped up on my phone today and it genuinely made us smile.

There are so many good landlords out there. They just don't seem to get talked about very often.

I think if we can keep finding them, we can create a lot more affordable homes together than we ever could on our own. 💛
