Looking for a tenant – How good is this offer?
July 17th, 2010
I recently spent some time chatting to a young Royal mail postman on a doorstep of a house whilst waiting for an estate agent to arrive so I am now fully qualified to speak to you about letterboxes as well as what goes through them. Incidentally did you know they are raising the amount of junk mail we can receive each day from three to six?
I received a mailer through my door recently from a local letting agent looking for new business. This particular a6 leaflets sales pitch was “Choose [xxx agent] and you could be letting your house to a household name” It then showed an impressive collection of the logos of 7 major national companies including Honda, Canon, British Gas, Volvo, Vodafone and even Nato which it clearly labelled as the companies clients.
This is obviously a once in a lifetime opportunity. Don’t expect the postman to ring twice – if you have a property you want to find a tenant for you need to get down here right now and snap their hands off. They won’t be collecting a fee from their client AND a fee from a landlord will they?
