Three Leasing Tips for Arlington Property Managers

If you’re new to the world of investment property, and even if you aren’t, the leading property management Specialized team has a few tips to help you avoid some commonly made mistakes. DIY landlords should consider the services and the professional skills of our Specialized managers to lease their property faster, find the highest quality tenants, and to keep their cash flow more consistent. Here’s what we wish all rental property owners knew about leasing:

Set your Rent Price Right

Owners need to do their homework and know what rent prices are acceptable in the area of their rental. The age, size, amenities, and cosmetic condition of the rental property influences the rent amount tenants are willing to pay. Over pricing your unit can mean more vacancy days and negatively effect your cash flow.

Consider a Pet Policy

Having a pet policy can have a positive effect on your leasing outcome. Tenants with pets are usually willing to pay a higher rent rate. The average damage to property from pets is not that much more than with tenants without pets. Consider you will have fewer vacancy days and more applicants to choose from when you have a pet policy for your unit.

Screen Your Applicant

All potential tenants over the age of 18 should be screened with a background, credit, employment, and rental history checks. Having the highest quality tenant means your property is better maintained, your rent is regularly collected, and the neighborhood is a safer place for everyone.
