Checklist for Renting Out

Of course, here is a checklist that we as real estate agents can offer to prospective landlords of real estate:

☑ Preparing the home

  • Make sure the property is clean and well maintained before it is rented out.
  • Repair any defects and provide a fresh coat of paint if necessary.
  • Provide good lighting and ventilation in the home.

☑ Facilities and equipment

  • Check that all amenities and equipment in the home are functioning properly, such as air conditioning, kitchen appliances and plumbing.

☑ Rent determination

  • Research the rental market in the area to determine a reasonable rent for the property.Consider factors such as the location, size and amenities of the property when determining the rent. Connect with an experienced real estate agent for advice on determining a common rental price.

☑ Tenant profile

  • Determine the desired profile of tenants, such as families, singles, students, etc.
  • Consider whether pets are allowed and whether there are specific tenant preferences.

☑ Rental agreement

  • Draft a clear lease agreement with all relevant terms, including rent, deposit, notice period, landlord and tenant responsibilities, and any maintenance and repair clauses. Visit an experienced real estate agent or lawyer to provide you with this.

☑ Advertising

  • Create attractive ads for the property with clear photos and descriptions of the amenities and location. Place the ads on relevant platforms such as online rental websites, social media and local listing pages. Or hire a real estate agent to represent you in this.

☑ Viewings

  • Schedule viewings for interested tenants and provide a professional tour of the property. Answer any questions tenants may have and provide additional information about the property and the rental process. Or hire a real estate agent to represent you in this regard.

☑ Screening of tenants

  • Conduct thorough screening of potential tenants, including checking references, income verification and background checks.
  • Make sure tenants are reliable and able to pay the rent.

☑ S ign rental agreement

  • After suitable tenants are found, have them sign the lease and collect the first month’s rent and deposit. Or hire a real estate agent to represent you in this.

By following this checklist, prospective landlords can properly prepare to rent out their property and have a smooth rental process. As a landlord, it is possible to get started with renting out your property yourself. Working with a professional real estate agency also offers several advantages.
