From initial contact to rental agreement in 24 hours: Letting flats and properties in Hamburg quickly and profitably

Letting a flat independently - harder than expected

Our clients had been looking for a suitable tenant for their 154 square metre flat on Hamburg's Elbchaussee for six months in advance. Both their own efforts and the support of an external estate agent failed to achieve the desired results. The flat is in a fantastic location in the Elbe suburbs and, as a new-build property, has a modern kitchen and bathroom, a balcony and many other extras such as two underground parking spaces. Apparently, the attractive property lacked the right marketing strategy for letting..

Our contact network as the key to successful letting

As the landlady had already heard about Engel & Völkers' promising offer elsewhere, she decided to contact our estate agents. After a brief presentation of the property and the letting request, we searched our contact network for suitable interested parties - thanks to the disproportionately high demand for rental flats in the Hamburg area, Engel & Völkers has an extensive database of potential rental candidates. The research, which would probably have taken our client many more months on her own, was completed within a few hours, enabling us to quickly find a suitable prospective tenant. The rental contract was signed the very next day after a satisfactory viewing of the flat for all parties.

This example demonstrates how Engel & Völkers Hamburg Elbe's in-depth market information, expertise and, in particular, its network of contacts can speed up a letting process. If you too would like to let a flat or other property, please do not hesitate to contact us!
