When your property is vacant that mean profits are not coming in and we want to give you some tips to reduce the time you have between tenants. Understanding how to lease your empty properties faster will ensure a steady cash flow and also to maintain your property as well. Here are some ways a Coeur d’Alene property management company can propel you in being a successful and efficient landlord.
Rent-Ready
Ensuring you lease your property is ready to go on the market starts from the front curb, throughout the unit, and to the back fence is what is expected when we use the term “rent-ready.” Real Property Management Coeur d’Alene knows that showing a property before it is completely ready will extend your vacancy time because it is not ready, and so we ensure that all repairs and cleaning are finished before showing a rental property.
Start Outside
Having a curb appeal for potential renters will set a standard and elevate their perception of the property before they enter the rental; first impressions are the most important in showing a property and bringing about a new lease.
Pull up to the curb of your unit yourself and do an honest evaluation of what you see. Would you want to rent the property yourself based on first appearances? A good Coeur d’Alene property management company will arrange for yard work and general repairs to the exterior. Without a good start on the outside, you’ll risk potential renters leaving before even taking a look at what the inside has to offer.
Safety and Security
Safety is the top priority when preparing for a new lease. This means re-keying, this is standard procedure and important safety precaution. Also checking detectors such as smoke, radon, and carbon monoxide detectors are a must for the safety of your tenants. A good Coeur d’Alene property management company will help ensure you follow all regulations required for the safety of your tenant and schedule so that things like batteries are always replaced on time.
Finish Inside
Complete all repairs and remodeling before showing the unit, and always clean up after work. This is also why it is important to inspect the property after repairs or construction is done, because loose debris or messes may be left. Your Real Property Management Coeur d’Alene will ensure a rental home is thoroughly and professionally cleaned and ready to be moved into. When these steps are completed, we will ensure all appliances, equipment, and light bulbs are checked to ensure things are ready to go and working properly. Then we will perform a complete property review so you have the peace of mind to know your property will be rented in the shortest time possible, saving you time, headache and financial loss.
Then you are able to confidently put your house back on the moment. And your Real Property Management Coeur d’Alene is here every step of the way to ensure the success of your new lease.
