Why Tenants prefer to Rent Professionally Managed Properties

Just like most property owners have some serious concerns about any new tenant moving into their rental property (will they look after my property, will they pay their rent on time, will I have to incur the costs and pain of eviction if they don’t?); the two biggest issues/fears that tenants have when renting a property are:  1) What if the landlord does not do the maintenance that he is supposed to in terms of the lease and I don’t get what I am paying for?  2) Will the landlord refund my deposit after I move out?  

 

Of course this does not mean that all landlords will act in this way, but the problem is that some landlords do act in this way and have little regard for a tenant’s rights and the tenant will not know this until it is too late.  

 

Smart Tenants have realised that they have a much better chance of being treated fairly and in accordance with the law, if they choose a rental property that is professionally managed by reputable, Smart Estate Agents.  

 

Smart Agents do after-all know that their professional reputation is on the line and will make sure that they will treat both tenants and landlords, fairly and in accordance with the terms of the lease and the law.

So, in summary, Smart Tenants prefer to rent properties that are well managed by Smart Agents, because they will have the comfort of knowing they will be well treated, repairs and maintenance (if required) will be done, and assuming they return the property in the same good condition after the lease ends, they will not have a problem getting their deposit back.  Furthermore they know that they will always be able to get hold of their Smart Agent, to deal with problems or emergencies and they can always expect to receive good, solid advice from them.
