Since the end of May this year, the Rentright team have been watching from our office window as the new branch of letting specialist Leaders has taken shape here in Basingstoke.
It has been fascinating to see how MPL Interiors have completely refurbished an old printing shop – rapidly transforming it from a tired old shop-front in much need of a lick of paint to an exciting, vibrant and sophisticated Lettings Agency that catches the eye of all traffic passing through the centre of Basingstoke.
My colleague Dan and I popped down for the grand opening on the 5th of August – whilst Dan did sterling work recording the proceedings for posterity I met with the party-goers to find out what this new branch means to everyone.
Local developer and landlord Martin Smith, who has worked with such high-profile clients as Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber, cut the ribbon to declare the new branch officially open. Mr Smith was very pleased to have been asked along and was enthusiastic about the stunning new branch.
Basingstoke branch manager Kim Smith says: “Our new office looks fantastic and gives us much more space to welcome our clients and accommodate our growing business. We are very excited about becoming part of the UK’s largest independent letting chain and launching the Leaders brand here in Basingstoke”.
It was a great day to invite members of the local community, businesses, landlords and tenants to witness the official opening – all in all it was a highly successful opening event and has placed Leaders firmly on the Basingstoke map!The Rentright Team would like to take the opportunity to wish Leaders Basingstoke the best of luck with their new venture and look forward to working closely with Leaders in the near and distant future.
Flats to rent and houses for rent through Leaders Basingstoke can be seen on Rentright.co.uk.

Websites such as Zoopla, who have bought out propertyfinder.com, have chosen the pay per lead basis as has the newer website propertyindex.com. Both sites charge £1 per lead and around £3/£4 per Landlord/Vendor enquiry. It will be interesting to see what happens with the newly acquired propertyfinder.com pricing module. Given that zoopla claim the pay per lead is the way forward, one could assume that propertyfinder.com’s pricing will change. It remains to be seen.
If you are a letting agent and are looking for ways to take your business forward during the credit crunch then you will be looking for a cost effective service that provides results to get you tenants into vacant rental property on your books. There are lots of property rental portals which promise the earth and can not deliver on their promise, Rentright does deliver and gives you much more besides.
