When you have a property to rent, you want to ensure that you attract the right tenants. Having the best possible tenants in your rental property means less stress for you going forward and will make it easier for you to manage your property. As every landlord knows, some tenants are more respectful of the property than others and while finding these dream tenants is not always easy, there is plenty that you can do to attract them.

 

Taking the time to make sure that your property looks great and well cared for is a great place to start. If your tenants see that your rental is well-maintained and that you make a real effort to keep it that way, they will be more likely to do the same. What’s more, when your rental property looks great there will be more interest from potential tenants, which will make it easier to find the right tenants and get the best price for your property moving forward.

 

Let’s take a look at a few simple styling tips that will help you to attract potential clients to your rental property.

 

Make The Bedroom Cosy

 

The bedroom is an important room in any home and you need to make sure that it looks warm, cosy and inviting. Installing a bed head, updating the curtains and adding a quality mattress will all add to the overall look and feel of your bedrooms, making the property more appealing to prospective tenants.

 

Ensure A Practical Kitchen

 

Take some time to look around the kitchen and consider how you would cook a meal there. Does it have everything that you would need? Are the appliances in good working order? Is there adequate storage? The kitchen is the heart of any home and is one of the first things potential renters will look at, so be sure that it is both aesthetically pleasing and practical in its design.

 

Set The Mood

 

When people come to view your rental property, you want to ensure they are greeted with an inviting space where they can envision themselves living. Fresh flowers, scented candles and other little touches can go a long way in helping you to make potential tenants feel at home in your property.

 

Focus On Comfort

 

If your property is furnished, make sure that the furniture you have in place fits the space well and is comfortable. Mismatched furniture pieces can look great, if it’s done well. However, if there is no cohesion in your design, it will look like you picked up bits and pieces over time with little thought or care as to how they would go together. Choose comfortable furniture that fits the space well to make the right impression from the outset.

 

Make it Homely

 

Potential tenants that come to view your property are arriving in the hopes that they may find their next home. To help them see the potential in your property, go the extra mile and make it feel homely by adding some cushions, throws and hanging some artwork on the walls. Boring, sterile rentals are all too common. With a few extra flourishes, you can ensure that your property looks more appealing to prospective tenants and stands out from the other options on the rental market.

 

Clean Thoroughly

 

While cleaning might not necessarily be styling, it is crucial that you take the time to clean your property from top to bottom. Carrying out a deep clean of your rental will immediately make it more attractive to anyone viewing it. Anybody coming to view your property will expect it to be clean, neat and tidy. Whether you hire a professional or do the work yourself, you need to ensure that the property is spotless before potential tenants come to see it.

 

Make Your Rental Property More Appealing To Find The Right Tenants

 

Taking the time to style and prepare your property before renting it out will ensure that there is more interest in your rental and that you attract the best tenants. Follow the tips outlined above to get your property ready for rent and give yourself every chance of finding those dream tenants that every landlord dreams of.
