Keeping Renters Interested in Your Rental

Getting people to view your rental property is nice, but having people actually love your place enough to put in an application is what most landlords are going for. In this post I will outline some simple steps that one can take to make sure their rental stands out from all the others. Nowadays it is important that your rental have a little spice to make sure it can stand up to the competition.

Step 1: Front Yard and Curb Appeal - Just like selling a house you need to make a good first impression with renters and curb appeal is just as important when renting a house out. Most renters will look at the front yard and if they see weeds or over grown vegetation they will come to the conclusion that the home is not well cared for and that they will not be able to get things fixed when they need the landlord to come in and fix things. So make sure you are keeping the front of the house neat and tidy and remove any weeds that do show up.

Step 2: A Clean House is A Must - Renters want a home that is warm and inviting so make sure that your rental is cleaned from the last tenants, this means carpet, appliances and cupboards. Don't think that tenants arnt going to inspect every square inch of a potential rental because they do! And many are looking to make sure that the property is clean and well cared for, because they want to know they will be taken care of as the renters.

Step 3: Keep The Electricity On - As much as we hate extra bills this can be one of the most important ones.  Most people work... After all don't we all want our renters to have jobs so they can make the rent payment... and most of them work during the day so some times the only time they are available to see a house is in the evening when the sun is starting to go down and it can be pretty dark. It is important to keep the electricity on so that those who see the home as the sun is setting can get a good feel for the home.

These are just three simple steps to take when marketing and getting your rental unit ready to show.

  1. Hi! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about property lease. I am glad to stop by your site and know more about property lease. Keep it up! This is a good read. You have such an interesting and informative page. I will be looking forward to visit your page again and for your other posts as well.
    A lease may be: a fixed-term agreement, in other words one of these two:
    -for a specified period of time (the "term"), and end when the term expires;
    -conditional, i.e. last until some specified event occurs, such as the death of a specified individual; or
    a periodic agreement, in other words renewed automatically
    -usually on a monthly or weekly basis
    -at will, i.e. last only as long as the parties wish it to, and be terminated without penalty by either party.
    Having the right representation can mean the difference between favorable lease arrangements and a costly business proposition. Professional representation is always a good idea just about any time you’re in the market for office, retail or industrial space.
