Five Qualities of an Ideal Landlord

Are you actively involved in the rental market or have you considered renting out your property? Would you like to be the best landlord that can possibly be found? We'll give you some great tips that will help you become the very best!

The ideal landlord …

• knows who they want to live in their apartment. They make a very correct fixed-term contract with the tenant and are able to explain all its points clearly to both themselves and the tenant. If they get stuck with it, they use the help of a specialist broker. They don't run into any problems with the contract because all points are explained from the start! Also, a very good landlord pays taxes on their income and is such a particularly wonderful operator for our dear Estonia.
• does not bother the tenant at random times or violate the tenant's privacy once they have handed over their apartment to the tenant for an agreed period. The tenant could of course give permission to a good landlord to inspect the rental property at certain intervals to ensure that everything is functioning and their property has been treated with proper care. Certainly, the wonderful landlord should follow polite etiquette and bring a small gift when visiting, since they are entering not their own, but now another person's home. This gesture will certainly make every person's day much nicer!

• shows genuine interest in their tenants. They express their wishes clearly and listen to the tenant's wishes and, if possible, fulfill them. They conduct or have a proper background check done on tenants to avoid unpleasant surprises in the future. The most unpleasant surprise could be an insolvent tenant who is unwilling to vacate the apartment. Well, try to remain a wonderful landlord in such a situation! Such a situation would certainly darken your eyes. Unfortunately, similar cases happen constantly, especially when the landlord themselves doesn't deal with the matter thoroughly or doesn't use the help of a competent broker. Thus, a good landlord ensures that both they and their tenants can be reliable, grateful, and happy partners to each other until the end of the rental relationship.
• asks from time to time if the tenants are doing well and is always ready to provide answers and discuss ideas that tenants may have about the apartment. For example, a tenant wants to refresh the walls in their wonderful landlord's apartment. Very cool! Then one should find a compromise so that both parties contribute to the undertaking. One of the most important things is to listen to each other and find solutions. Every tenant would be extremely grateful to a landlord who listens to them and makes them feel important! Then the landlord can also be sure that the tenant will take care of their property.
• has educated themselves in the rental field or uses the help of a specialist. Then they don't have to do much more than walk around with a big smile, because thanks to very thorough preliminary work and humane behavior, everything works smoothly on its own!
