David Kendall - Lets Make Homes

“A very strong start to 2020 came to an abrupt halt with the terrible effects of the Coronavirus. Over the last few weeks new working practices have been swiftly adopted and the turnover of tenancies has been significantly lower than normal, indeed several tenants who gave notice have since retracted and decided to stay put. Maintaining tenancies has become paramount with many tenants simply requiring ‘signposting’ and reassurance in order to be able to remain in their homes and pay their rent. As we gradually emerge from this crisis the underpinning strength of the PRS will be the simple fact that people need somewhere to live and letting agencies must work together with their clients as we move into a new era.”
