New Lets Being Agreed Before Tenants Move Out

Posted: Tuesday, July 21, 2015 at 4:00 AM CDT

London, England -- (SBWire) -- 07/21/2015 --Properties are now being rented out to new tenants before existing occupants have even moved out according to new figures released by a prominent property news service. So far in 2015, 33% of new lets were agreed while occupants were still in the property – a figure which is already up from 27% last year. With the property market booming and places to stay becoming increasingly scarce and competitive amongst prospective tenants, the average period it takes for a landlord to let a property is 32 days, which is the shortest period on record. These statistics are even higher in London where 51% of new lets are agreed whilst there is a sitting tenant in the property.

This has implications on current tenants as it means that they won't have the leeway which was traditionally assured when they moved out of a property. This makes organisation when it comes to removals, packaging and storage even more crucial. The traditional laissez-faire and informal approach to moving house can no longer be depended upon. This means that both new and old tenants alike will have to invest in a reliable service which can assure them of a smooth transition.

As regular commentators on industry news, a spokesperson had this to say, 'We think that this is quite an important fact which has emerged in the report. Whether we think this is good or bad for people or the property market, the fact remains that tenants need to remain protected and safe in their own position first and foremost. We've been around for a long time and have seen a lot of changes in the property market and the way that things change in terms of removals preferences. And it is definitely crucial to have the right removals company in this day and age.
