What do I need to prepare before check-in?
Preparing for your tenants' arrival involves several key steps to ensure a smooth transition:
Property Readiness: Ensure the property is clean, functional, and ready for the new tenant's occupancy.
Inventory List: Create an inventory list detailing the condition of the property and its contents, including furniture, appliances, fixtures, and any provided items. Document this with photos or videos to establish the property's condition before the tenant moves in.
Tenancy Agreement: Provide an up-to-date tenancy agreement containing all necessary details. This document should outline rent amount, payment schedule, duration of tenancy, and any specific rules or agreements.
Contact Information: Compile a list of important contact numbers, including your own contact details, emergency maintenance services, and any property management contacts relevant to the tenant.
By completing these preparations before the tenant's check-in, you facilitate a smooth and organized start to their rental experience.
