I met Laura Mearns at a business event in Aberdeen recently and in conversation (when I was sighing about how much renting was costing me) she gave me some excellent advice. It had never occurred to me that I was in a negotiating position with my landlord - I had just been so happy to have a great house in a superb location I had paid only a bit less than the asking price. However, with Laura's many years of experience she was able to advise me on the correct wording to write to the landlord to ask for a reasonable decrease on the rent for my rental extension, to reflect current market conditions and my willingness to rent long term. I am delighted to report that they thought my request reasonable and we saved £200 per month! Outstanding service and an all round sensible approach to doing business with property - well done Northwood and I am happy I met you Laura!
