Selecting a suitable tenant

Ensuring we find the most suitable tenant for your property is one of the most critical aspects of property management.

At Little Real Estate we adhere to a stringent process to eliminate as many risks as possible. This results in a very low number of problem tenants. Our detailed checks include:

• Contacting employment references, past and present, to ensure that tenant is financially suitable for the property;
• Contacting current and previous landlords/agents who provide us with feedback on the applicants rental history including routine Inspection reports, payment history and maintenance issues reported;

Once we have completed all thorough checks and are happy with an applicant we will contact you with all gathered information, enabling you to make an informed final choice on which applicant you would prefer to occupy the premises.
