How much rent to charge?

The decision of how much to demand from prospective tenants depends on the rental market of your neighbourhood. If your house is situated in the posh areas of the city, obviously you will demand higher rents. However, to accurately know the worth of your house, we advise you to talk to a real estate agent or you can also do DIY research on the internet.

Screen potential tenants

You cannot meet hundreds of tenants to get the best deal for your property. The first step to screen a tenant is ‘talk them on-call’ before inviting at your place. While talking on a call, you will get an idea of their mannerism and a little know-how about their ability to pay rents.

Clauses you need to include in the lease agreements

As a landlord, it’s your right to include any specific clause related to the use of a property. For example, you can include: pets aren’t allowed, smoking inside the premises isn’t allowed, etc. But not everything you can restrict and there is a law regarding the use of property according to which a tenant resides on a rental property.

Make necessary adjustments

Before renting out your house you need to make necessary repair works, for example, make sure locks are working properly, plumbing work is up to the mark, electrical appliances, switches and lights are working fine, etc. 

Empty your house on time

Once everything is up to the mark, now it’s time to vacate your property or whenever places for rent. If you fail to empty your house on time, as specified in the rental agreement, the tenant has a right to take legal actions and can also terminate the contract.
