As a landlord are you confident that your rented property is working to its best potential for your needs? Every landlord is different but one of the main bonuses that a second home brings is freedom. The freedom to go on an extra holiday this year, the freedom from worrying about providing for your children’s future, the freedom of knowing that your pension doesn’t have to stretch quite so far.
So, it is vitally important that your rental property is working to its best potential so that you can reduce your stress and increase your peace of mind.
Therefore, I am proud to announce homes4harrogate’s first property event of 2019 on the 14th March from 6pm at the luxurious House of Harrogate showroom on Cheltenham Mount in the town Centre. Surrounded by drinks and nibbles, local property experts will be on hand to update you regarding changing landlord legislation, how to gear your investment so that you could use the capital or increase your portfolio, how to refurbish it without breaking the bank and how to be tax efficient!
These regular property networking and advice events were a hit in 2018 and are back this year to help our local Harrogate landlords. They are also very useful for those thinking about investing in a rental property or “accidental landlords”. Our latest host, House of Harrogate, provides accessible luxury for the whole home through outstanding design and an exceptional portfolio that caters for a range of tastes and budgets. From whole-house renovations to refreshing a room with a single piece of furniture, House of Harrogate offers something special for every home.
Their 6000 sq ft showroom is a beautiful space, ideal for a property networking event and which showcases the products and brands House of Harrogate work with whilst allowing their customers to experience them in a real-life environment.
They have working kitchens, bathrooms, wet-rooms, bedrooms, bi-fold doors, shutters, on-trend concrete walls and flooring, dining, living and bedroom furniture, home automation and a jaw-dropping home cinema room. This is a luxury space in which to enjoy a drink and seek advice on property related matters.

Our percentage of local sales is very high for our size and our turnaround is swift. We've spent the last 25 years getting to know every inch of the Harrogate district and its property market, and we study it constantly. That knowledge, and our unique sales approach – always friendly, never pushy – means we’re unusually good at finding buyers.
It doesn’t mean we charge more – in fact our rates are very competitive. We’re able to do that because we’ve kept our team small and stuck to our principles of honesty, attention to detail and proper customer care. So while we have all the selling tools that modern estate agents have at their disposal, no home we sell is ever lost in the crowd, or treated second-best because we have a larger property on our books.
We give you our full attention and make sure we’re with you at every step. In short, we actually care – after all, this could be one of the most important transactions of your life.
