Hi, I’m Freddy
I help letting agents PBSA's providers find tenants for their vacant rooms

Why is finding tenants consistently becoming increasingly difficult?
Sometimes, despite your best efforts, you still end up with rooms unoccupied. And looking for the last few tenants not only cost you and your landlord money, but it can also be a real time sink and stops you from thinking about your next business move – the one that’s going to really move the needle for your business.
It’s also fair to say that competition for tenants is at an all time high. Forty-seven. That’s the number of letting agencies I could find when I last typed “Letting Agents” Coventry on Google. At least forty-seven agencies vying for landlords attention and trying to find suitable tenants for their rooms.
With all the PBSA’s being built all around Coventry, students are spoiled for choice when it comes to choosing their next accommodation. In this context, even having the most beautiful property for rent is no guarantee for success.
“Advertising on Rightmove and Zoopla and waiting for the phone to ring is not enough anymore. Finding tenants consistently requires a proactive, targeted approach. And collaboration.”

your business.
Finding the last few tenants for a property can be really stressful and time consuming. Get this time back and focus on in brining in more clients for your business.
How it works
You send me the details of the property with all the information I need to work on it efficiently.
Whenever possible, I like to visit the property and get a sense of the space. I would usually take a couple of extra photos and videos – This often comes handy when dealing with prospective tenants who can’t visit the property in person.
Crafting the perfect message
This is probably the task I spend the most time on – getting the message right makes finding a suitable tenant a whole lot easier. From an attention-grabbing headline to a carefully thought-out list of features and benefits, I make sure the advert not only attracts a maximum of potential tenants but also weeds out the ones that are not suitable. And get your approval on ad style and co
Advertise, advertise, advertise.
I’ve invested heavily on making sure my Ads get the best exposure possible. Still, there’s a lot more work I do behind the scenes to get them in front of the right people, but like any good chef, I won’t reveal the ingredients of my secret sauce. And get your approval on ad style and co
Collaborate as and when needed
No matter how good you are at finding tenants, you’ll always need a bit of help at one point or another. With that in mind, I’ve worked hard to build a network of local partners who can help me find suitable tenants when I can’t.
I deal with all the paperwork and hand over the tenant to you, ready to move in.

4 Reasons to work with me
A dedicated & proactive partner
I get paid only if I deliver. So, you can be sure I’ll give it my heart and soul. Plus, unlike you, I don’t manage properties on behalf of property owners, so I can spend all my working hours scouting the web for suitable tenants or to find suitable properties for your leads.
From enquiry to booking in no time.
I’ve got everything covered to make the whole tenant onboarding process quick and easy, because sometimes, the speed of execution can be the difference between a successful let and a lead slipping through the net – so, if it means sending a tenancy agreement at 9pm, so be it.
Your rules, you stay in control
Want me to use your tenancy agreement? Or have a special request regarding the tenants you’re looking for? Or maybe you just want me to pass on the details and you take care of the rest? Just say it, I’ll make sure your requirements are met.
Stay informed, at all times
No wondering if I’m making progress on the property or the lead you sent through to me. From the get-go, I create a shared folder where you can check my activities, in real time. And this also means – no double bookings of rooms or property.
Featured Case
How I took Penny Black Accommodation from 0 to 100% occupancy rate in less than a month (off season)
Background:
When I took on this project on September 23rd, 2021, the building had been empty for a few months and the owners were desperately looking for someone to as many rooms let as possible. To understand the reasons behind this odd situation ( yes, a student accommodation building at the heart of Coventry City Centre, completely empty is odd) when need to go back a few months.
Earlier this year, the owners decided to apply for a change of use for the building – they would turn it into a set of posh bars and restaurants. So they thought: why bother with finding tenants. Realising that the project would take longer than expected, they suddenly had a change of heart and now wanted to let the rooms to students for this academic year and report their project to the following year.
We’re now mid July, and they decide to use the services of an agent based in Coventry, who was tasked to find at least of few suitable tenants for September.
Fast forward 2 months, and the building is still completely empty. And worst, we’re now in September and 90%, if not more, of students have already found their accommodation.
So, it’s in this context that they decided to call me, to see if I could at least get them a few tenants – they didn’t expect much, knowing that it was not an ideal period.
The work:
The first thing I did was to get the property back in presentable order. General cleaning, maintenance and a few improvement were needed if we were to get a chance to turn this around.
Then, I proceeded to getting to know the building well enough and took additional photos and videos of each rooms and communal areas.
Back on my desk, I crafted the perfect message for the advert, making sure to emphasis all the unique selling points of the building, and being descriptive enough to elicit as much interest as possible, but also to attract the most qualified leads.
The result:
Working my magic behind the scenes, I’ve managed to fill up the 14 rooms available within a month.
I leave it to you to imagine how the owners felt after such a performance…
