P & R Properties

Running about looking for places to rent is never much fun. You’re checking through local newspapers for private rentals, calling to estate agents and letting agents, and generally making a lot of phone calls. Trying to make appointments and arranging times to view various properties (for the ones that haven’t already been let out by the time you phone)… the whole thing can be a headache.
However, this letting agent can save you an awful lot of hassle. You walk into the office in Botanic Avenue and they have lists of all the properties they have available to let in the surrounding area. The next step isn’t to pull out the iPhones and digital organisers to make an appointment to view a property at a time that’s convenient to you and them, no no. The next step is to hand them some type of photo ID (driving licence or passport), tell them which property you’d like to view, they give you the keys and off you go! This is undoubtedly the way to go. Bring the keys back and get keys to view another property. If you’re looking for somewhere around the university area, you could easily view about 10 properties during business hours.
Of course, this doesn’t help if there’s somewhere that you specifically have your eye on that isn’t being let by this property agent, but aside from that it’s a great service.
