I’m a landlord and I go above and beyond to make sure the moving-in experience is enjoyable for each and every tenant. Moving house is stressful so why make life more difficult for them? This should be a special and exciting moment so it’s important to make sure a home is fully ready to accept new residents. This means making sure everything is clean and fully functional. That’s as a bare minimum.
After the previous tenant moves out, hire an an end of lease cleaning service. They’ll be able to do a truly deep clean that gets the property looking as good as it did when it was brand new. Doing this means that your new tenant will be blown away the moment they first step foot into the property. Furthermore, it instantly relaxes them, knowing that they won’t have to worry about doing any cleaning for themselves. They can just unpack in their own time and settle into their new life.
After the cleaning, go around the home and check everything is working. How would you feel if after the stress of moving you realized you couldn’t cook because the oven won’t turn on? I make sure that there is absolutely nothing broken so that the tenant has as little stress as possible. In return, they’re more likely to look after their items and all parties are kept happy.
Finally, you can think about adding your own personal touch. Maybe you want to leave a small gift for the new tenant so that they know they’re appreciated. This could be a bottle of wine, a bunch of flowers, or some chocolate. This doesn’t cost much but builds a strong relationship with your tenant from the very first moment.
