Ways To Create A Positive Landlord-Tenant Relationship

Both Parties Should Strive To Build A Positive Working Relationship

As a landlord, letting your property to new tenants can make you a little nervous. The best way to ensure that your tenant and you have the best possible experience is to build a positive working relationship.

Having an excellent landlord-tenant relationship will help keep your tenants happy, encourage them to take good care of your property, and may persuade them to renew once their initial tenancy ends.

With this in mind, our team at Quealy & Co have some top tips to help you create the best relationship with your tenants.

1. Good Communication Is Key

Before your new tenant moves in, communicate with them effectively to establish the house rules. Communicating expectations early helps avoid tension later, for example, should they want to redecorate or keep a pet.

2. Supply Your Contact Details

Tenants need to have a reliable person they can contact if they experience a problem, so make sure you’ve supplied your contact details and those of another trusted person who can efficiently deal with issues if you’re unavailable.

3. Respond Quickly To Any Issues

If your tenant raises any issues, resolving them rapidly will go a long way towards ensuring a positive tenant-landlord relationship. Your tenants want to be reassured that you care about their well-being and the property, so arranging repairs as quickly as possible is critical.
