for this delay. perhaps having had a bad experience in the
past, will only rent properties that are managed
by a professional managing agency. We feel that
the service the tenant receives is just as important
as the service that our clients receive. A happy
tenant is likely to stay longer, reducing the wear
and tear on your property caused by a regular
change in tenant and also avoids any void
periods. It is important that any issues/concerns
the tenants have are dealt with promptly and
efficiently. It is also important that the property is
inspected on a regular basis to ensure it is being
maintained by the tenants correctly and that there
are no breaches of the tenancy agreement terms.
This also gives the tenant an opportunity to raise
any queries they have.
