• Reduce clutter – ensure to get rid of everything but the bare essentials
• Outside and inside of the property – if the property is freshly decorated and there is fresh paintwork and it is well cared for in and out, it will 100% make an amazing first impression
• The modern look – by attracting tenants, it is always crucial to keep the property light and neutral, ensure windows are clean and decoration has been used with light colours

When you’ve agreed on your tenants and they have agreed to move in, the next step is then the paperwork, this is done before the tenancy agreement can start. We will take care of this, and send you the documents of your potential tenants for you to come to a final decision.
We then name the status of your property from ‘available’ to ‘let agreed’, after that, we request your tenants to bring in credit statements to check and ensure they are the right tenants for you. If there are any problems on behalf of the tenant’s request of the property, we will be sure to ask you first before doing anything.
Then, we will draw up a tenancy agreement which will be the contract, which then sets out exactly what the terms of your contract are with your tenant, including any special requirements you have/expect from your tenants. We will be sure to send you a copy of this agreement if you request, for you to look at and make sure your tenant signs it.
Finally, the inventory records are consistent and we ensure to keep track of the contents and condition of your property at the point in which when your tenants move in. Moreover, at the end of the tenancy, we will ensure to carry another inspection at the end of the tenancy to check that nothing is missing or damaged.
Before the tenancy starts, we will collect a holding deposit and the first rent payment on your behalf. Then, as soon as this money clears, your tenants can then move in.
We will cut spare keys and give tenants a key in case of any problems or emergencies.
Letting your property is now over, and you are now a landlord.
