How long will it take to rent my property through Spotahome?
The time it takes to rent your property through Spotahome is dependent upon a number of factors. Below are some of the key factors that you can influence to speed up your first successful booking!
-
Price - It is important to make sure that your property is fairly priced with the market conditions.
-
Booking Conditions - The more flexible you are with booking conditions, the quicker you are likely to receive your first booking.
-
Quality of Property - Tenants are more likely to book a property which is nicely presented and has all the necessary furniture and appliances. We recommend making sure that the property has been cleaned and is in a tidy condition when the Homechecker visits. Our data shows that a tenant is much more likely to book a property that is well taken care of.
There are also several other factors that you should be aware can impact the time it takes to rent your property.
-
Location - Tenants will generally look for accommodation in more desirable areas or locations that are close to their work / university. It is important to make sure that the price of the property is competitive for the location.
-
Seasonality - Depending on the profile of the tenant you are looking for, the time it takes to rent the property can be impacted by seasonality. Students are more likely to book a property for September or January whereas the professional market is more consistent throughout the year.
