Property Presentation

Posted on 5 January 2012

How Should The Property Be Presented?

To get the right tenant for your property, it must be presented in the best possible light. That means your property needs to be spotlessly clean, with any repairs and maintenance completed. We’ve all heard the cliché “first impressions last”, and in our experience they do!  So it’s also a good idea to have the outside of your property looking tidy and well maintained, as well as the interior.

How Clean Should The Property Be When A New Tenant Moves In?

Tenancy legislation requires that the property should be presented ‘reasonably clean’.

As a guide, we ask the tenant to leave the property at the standard they found the property – so if it starts spotlessly clean, it’s more likely to be left that way!

However in the case of a dispute, legally we can only enforce that the tenant return the property to a ‘reasonably clean’ condition, this being their minimum legal obligation.
