Summary

This week we're talking about how to conduct a viewing. Whether you're showing your property to rent or sell, there are a few simple techniques you can use to radically boost your chances of sealing the deal once you get people through the door. (A good companion to this episode is Episode 231 on how to find tenants, so you can get those viewings set up first.) We also look over the Labour and Conservative housing policies that have emerged from the party conferences in recent weeks. What are the politicians planning to throw at landlords next? Take a listen and we'll reveal all! Resource of the week Huawei mobile wifi is a lifesaver as a backup for if your internet connection goes down – or you can use it to get wifi access on the move. Just pop a SIM card into this tiny device, and it'll broadcast a 4G signal to all your devices...so no excuse for missing the podcast, wherever you are and whatever's going on! Join the conversation Have you picked up any tricks from doing your own viewings? Or do you have an opinion on the housing policies we discussed? We’d love to know, so join the discussion in The Property Hub!
