So, if youâve ever asked the question, âHow?â There are certain things you need to consider; letâs examine the facts.

How will I find a suitable tenant?
This is the most important consideration when letting a property in Holloway. Property is one of the largest investments an individual can make; therefore, it is crucial that the tenant is a trustworthy person. The reasons for this are two-fold: the monthly rent must be paid in full and on time; the property must be well maintained and kept in good order both inside and out. Of course, there needs to be a degree of trust between landlord and tenant however a decent, good quality letting agent such as Stadium Residential can carry out some reference checks via an independent reference agency which can build a reliable picture of prospective tenants. A credit check, employer reference and previous landlord reference will give you a good understanding of the potential tenant and how they have conducted their financial affairs. This can alleviate fears about entrusting a stranger with one of your biggest investments.

How do I draw up a Tenancy Agreement?
An Assured Shorthold Tenancy Agreement is the most common residential rental agreement and protects both landlord and tenant in its terms. Trawling the internet for a template agreement can be laborious, and employing a solicitor to draw up an agreement is potentially very expensive. Stadium Residential will draw up the agreement on your behalf and arrange to send you a copy to peruse before the tenant is invited to sign up.

How will I collect my rent?
If you instruct Stadium Residential to manage your property, you can sit back and relax. We will arrange for the rent to be collected from your tenant and deposited in your bank account. This eliminates the need for rent books or home visits between landlord and tenant. Stadium Residential will monitor the payments and will contact the tenant on your behalf should the payment be late.
Who is responsible for maintenance issues? This can be an alarming thought for any landlord. As your managing agent, Stadium Residential will field calls from tenants regarding maintenance issues.
For example, if a tenant calls because a light bulb has blown, we can be the point of contact to advise them that this is not the landlordâs responsibility. On the other hand, if the tenant calls to report a faulty boiler, our Holloway property management team can arrange for the relevant tradespeople to attend the property and resolve the issue quickly and efficiently, even outside of regular working hours. Unless instructed to the contrary, we will not instruct work without your permission.
