Tenant Selections
TENANT SELECTION FOR LANDLORDS
Finding the right tenant for your property can seem like a lot of work, but it's crucial for a successful tenancy, especially if you're aiming for a long-term lease. While we can manage the process for you, if you prefer a more hands-on approach, you can follow our guide below to streamline the tenant selection process.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
First impressions matter. During viewings, pay attention to tenants' comments and ask about their work, living situation, and potential cohabitants. This will give you insights into whether they might be a good fit for your property.
BASIC INFORMATION
Before formal reference or credit checks, gather basic information about the tenant’s employment, living situation, and whether they have children, pets, or smoke. This helps you determine initial suitability.
REFERENCE CHECKS
After initial conversations, conduct reference checks. Verify the tenant’s identity with photo ID and a recent bank statement, and gather references from their employer and previous landlord. This ensures you’re choosing a reliable tenant.
DECISION-MAKING
If you have multiple qualified candidates, have a conversation with each to understand their preferences and plans. This will help you decide who’s the best fit for your property.
By following these steps, you'll be well-positioned to find the perfect tenant for your property.
