Investing in a property with the intention of letting it out

Property investment is generally a sound business decision. That is why more and more people invest in properties with the intention of letting them out, either periodically or on a permanent basis. We call this “Buy to Let”.

A solid investment in an uncertain market

It is, however, important that prepare your self before leaping into a market, which has recently been hit by unforeseen stormy weather that one minute drenches homeowners with cold showers, only to tempt them the next into making further investments with hopeful summer breezes. Even though the market is tough to read – as even economists and realtors are apparent at odds over whether prices are headed up or down – it is still possible to make an informed decision about which homes are best suited for letting out.

The right investment requires great insight into the rental market.

Scandia Housing has many years of experience in home rental and meeting renters' demands concerning location, conditions and facilities. When you choose our expertise, you will receive sound advice concerning the criteria that must be met to allow you to let out your property and earn profit.

We provide a qualified and realistic rental offer and make suggestions for attractive investment opportunities. Moreover we keep you up to date on the wants and needs of the average renter; what he or she is willing to pay for, and what he or she tends to dislike. Finally, we give you an investment price range that fits your budget.

Before purchasing a property with the intention of letting it out, we will assist you and inspect the premises with the purpose of advising you on how the property should appear before it is put on the rental market, including making suggestions for possible improvements or extra facilities that would increase rental income.

Property for your children, for your own retirement or to be let out

Many of our clients initially opt to invest in property that their children can use during university, or that they themselves can use as senior retirement housing. This can indeed be a solid investment if the right home is purchased. At Scandia Housing, we have clients who began by purchasing a single flat and who today have a property portfolio containing several rental properties.

Regardless of whether you wish to purchase a property for the sole purpose of letting it out, or one that you – or your children – will later occupy, Scandia Housing is worth consulting once renting figures into the picture. To be sure, not all flats and houses are well suited for letting out, and the wrong purchase can prove to be an expensive mistake.

Our consulting services may easily become your best property investment.

We charge a one-time fee of 6,250 Danish kroner (DKK, including VAT) per home for our consulting services.

If you would like us to inspect a property that you already own, this service will naturally come free of charge.
