Landlords 'could pay removal costs

It has been claimed that landlords could offer to pay for removal services in order to secure the best tenants.

Chris Jenkins, manager of Clarity Commercial, says that landlords need to come up with creative incentives that will make their property stand out from the crowd in the current market.

He suggests offering to fund the moving costs for tenants or providing free bus passes for out-of-the-way properties as ways to find good tenants.

Mr Jenkins says that a free removal service "is a genuinely useful incentive".
"Good incentives to offer are ones that remove an up-front or lump sum cost for the tenant," he adds.In December 2008 the average monthly rent in the UK was £568, which is less than the typical £646 paid in November 2008 and considerably down on the £820 that was paid on average in December 2007, according to Rent right's Residential Rental Price Index
