Renovated Rental Property Let Within 48 Hours on Manor Way, Lancing

Date Published 13 July 2026

The best letting results often begin long before a property reaches the market. Careful preparation, realistic advice and the right pricing strategy can make all the difference—and this recent success on Manor Way, Lancing is a perfect example.

Our landlords had owned the property for many years, with the previous tenants having made it their home for almost two decades. While the tenancy had been a successful long-term one, the property naturally showed the signs of twenty years of occupation and required significant updating before it was ready to welcome new tenants.

Recognising the opportunity to maximise both the rental income and the quality of tenant, the landlords invested considerable time and money into renovating the property. The improvements transformed the house, creating a fresh, modern home that would appeal to today's rental market.

Before marketing commenced, we carried out a detailed rental valuation based on current demand in Lancing. Having assessed both the standard of the refurbishment and the shortage of high-quality family homes available locally, we were able to recommend a rental figure that exceeded the landlords' expectations while remaining fully supported by market evidence.

The response was immediate.

Within 48 hours of the property being launched, we had generated strong interest and agreed a let to suitable applicants. Following the successful completion of comprehensive referencing, the new tenants moved into their new home less than three weeks after the property was first advertised

This instruction demonstrates how investing in a property's presentation, combined with accurate pricing and proactive marketing, can deliver exceptional results. Rather than allowing the property to sit on the market, the combination of careful preparation and targeted exposure created immediate competition and secured an excellent outcome for our landlords.
