Frequently asked questions

Landlords

  • What investments are there in the area?
    There is growing confidence in Harehills and surrounding areas which is demonstrated by extensive investment in East Leeds. This is having the effect of maintaining a very buoyant housing market, with prices likely to increase more than the Leeds average in the future.
  • What lettings services do you offer?
    We offer a ‘fully managed service’ leaving all the headaches of renting to us; or a ‘let only service’ if you prefer to look after the day-to-day management of the property yourself, in which case we can help you find and vet suitable tenants, and prepare the necessary legal paper-work.
  • What do you charge?
    We offer a very competitively priced service which is tailored to the needs of the landlord, whether ‘fully managed’ or ‘let-only’. Call us now on 0113 235 1025 and we can give you a precise idea of the likely charges for the service that you require. View our fees.
  • Why should I let my property through Hogan’s?
    We are the longest established estate & letting agents in the Harehills area and the benefits of letting through us are:

    • Unrivalled knowledge of the area.

    • Extensive tenant database both for ‘working’ and ‘housing benefit’ tenants.

    • Maintenance department that can deal with all types of repair.

    • Deposits protected through Deposit Protection Service.

    • Comprehensive service that includes all the necessary paper-work.

    • Fast processing of payments to landlords.

Tenants

  • Do you accept Housing Benefit (Local Housing Allowance) tenants?
    Yes, housing benefit tenants are welcomed for our properties. You can find out how much housing benefit you are likely to receive by checking with Leeds City Council.
  • Do you charge me a fee?
  • Do I need a bond?
    Generally a bond is required on all properties and this is dependent on the landlord and the type of property. This is not held by Hogan’s and will be protected using the Deposit Protection Service.
  • Why should I rent through Hogan’s?
    We can offer a wide variety of properties in different locations and the benefits of renting through us are:

    • Housing benefit tenants welcomed.

    • Helpful, friendly and welcoming staff who will deal with you in a straight forward manner.

    • All properties vetted to ensure acceptable standards.

    • Online repair reporting system for tenants, 24/7. Request repair.

Vendors

    Ring or call into the office to arrange a free, no-obligation property appraisal. This service is offered six days a week.
  • How much will it cost me to sell my property?
    This is competitively priced and will depend on the value and type of property. Call us on 0113 235 1025 for further details.
  • Will I need a Home Information Pack (HIP)?
    You no longer need a HIP to sell your property but you do need an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC). We can arrange this for you for £75.
  • Where will you advertise my property?
    Your property will be displayed immediately in branch and on the following internet sites – Rightmove.co.uk; Zoopla.co.uk; Primelocation.co.uk; Gumtree.co.uk; and on our own website, as well as social media pages. We will also display an eye-catching for-sale board at the property.
