P.S Put Us On Speed Dial
Being a landlord has a lot of perks. Whether you already have a portfolio or are looking to make your first purchase, the venture allows you to build passive income. Additionally, you enjoy the security of a ‘bricks and water investment’. This can provide peace-of-mind against a backdrop of economic uncertainty. That being said, having the right team by your side makes a big difference. Choosing the right property agent, investment strategy and property lawyer are key decisions that can determine your success. Waterstone Legal is one of the best property law firms in London and a firm choice by many new and existing landlords when buying or selling.
Why? Great question. Here are five ways we are supporting landlords to thrive in 2025.
Get Connected
Connections matter. Having the right people by your side plays a big part in the level of your success as a landlord. This extends beyond your legal team. Having an expert property agent to help you source the best investment and advise you on the area you are buying is the best place to start. We work with a strong network of property agents across the UK and London who we can put you in touch with. Also, we are recommended by many local estate agents as one of the best London law firms for our conveyancing services. Not to mention, we pride ourselves on our relationships with property agents and lenders as key to supporting landlords to be successful. You know what they say, it’s not what you know, it’s who you know. Therefore, it certainly helps to know the best agents, lenders and lawyers when you’re a landlord.
The Personal Touch
With a central London office and Leicester office, our clients always know where to find us. Can’t get to the office? We offer virtual services all over the UK for new and existing landlords; so, we are quite literally a call away. As a client you have access to your own property portal where we update progress on transactions daily so you can log in whenever is convenient. Additionally, we understand the pressures landlords face. Hence, we naturally provide a personal touch however complex your situation. We are at heart, people’s-people. No question is too small or too big. Therefore, from the start of our legal journey together, you can turn to us in the moments you need us most.
Confusion Busters
The legal landscape is constantly changing, and we know that can get confusing. We make sure you are regularly updated with all the legal news that can affect you as a landlord. 2025 is set to make a lot of changes; from EPC requirements, stamp duty increases to an overhaul of the Landlords and Tenancy Act. As one of our clients, we make sure you are up to date. Additionally, we can help you action important requirements to make sure you stay compliant. Don’t have a property law firm near you? No problem. If you have any concerns or questions, you can always schedule a call with one of our legal experts to put your mind at rest. Often you get the answers that can resolve a lot of headaches and ensure your journey as a landlord is smooth sailing.
Legal Roadrunners
We are thorough AND we are fast. Some might even call us the roadrunners. Why is speed important? Quite often having a slow or non-communicative conveyancing solicitor can cause unnecessary delays and even lead to deals falling through. In contrast, we prioritise our relationships with third parties from estate agents to lenders, to ensure replies and sign-offs all take place as efficiently as possible. Offering a prompt and exceptional service from start to finish sets us apart as property lawyers. Furthermore, if you have any questions we make sure we get back to you so you stay up to date and relaxed. Whether purchasing a new investment, selling a property or re-mortgaging we ensure you are informed about timelines and expectations.
Time Is The Greatest Gift
One thing we pride ourselves on at Waterstone Legal is giving you our dedicated time. This is key to our long-term successful relationships. Whatever your legal concerns or wishes we listen and make sure you feel taken care of from our very first meeting. Speaking of meetings, do you like gifts? As a gift and helping hand to landlords throughout March – we have something special for you. With upcoming changes planned for 2025, we know many of you have questions regarding compliance and what exactly you need to know. Which is why we are giving you a bespoke and complimentary 45 minute consultation with one of our property lawyers to ask away!
