Positive feedback as one-stop shop opens in Crescent

A HINCKLEY-based lettings agency has opened a new ‘one-stopshop’ to great success at The Crescent.

Belvoir, who are known as ‘the lettings specialist­s’, opened their new flagship office at the Hinckley shopping and leisure complex earlier this month.

The Belvoir team joined forces with the Mortgage Advice Bureau, previously based on Castle Street, to open up the new hub. TV’s Paul Shamplina, star of the Nightmare Tenant Slum Landlord programme, cut the ribbon on the new office.

Under the new service, customers will be offered support in lettings, sales and in finding a mort- gage. There will also be a maintenanc­e department, makeovers of properties and property maintenanc­e plans.

Clayton Foston, director at Belvoir, said: “We’ve had massive feedback, all positive. Everybody comments on how spectacula­r the office looks.

“One of the main reasons for coming to the Crescent is to gain footfall. We have booked several appointmen­ts already from passers-by.

“Our shop window is also proving to be a magnet with people looking at our properties for sale / to let and booking viewings.

“All in all it has been a tremendous success.”

Steve Tempest, MAB Hinckley’s director, added: “We are excited to be part of a fantastic new location in town, with superb facilities, and investment in technology to offer the very best customer experience. Belvoir have outgrown their existing office though dedication and hard work, so I’m delighted to be joining them in their amazing new office.

“Working alongside Belvoir we have helped many landlords grow their portfolios, many of which bought their first property after attending one of our very successful property workshops. As a portfolio landlord myself, I understand the needs of landlords and can use this experience to guide landlords both new and old through the very complex mortgage market.

“With Belvoir knowledge of the local area we can combine to offer any landlord the very best in guiding them on their property journey.”
