To enhance a property’s street appeal and attract quality tenants, investors should focus on several key factors. A well-presented rental not only appeals more to prospective tenants but also encourages them to maintain the property in good condition. Before launching marketing efforts or hosting viewings, it’s essential to ensure the property’s exterior and interior are clean and well-maintained. Basic upkeep, such as mowing lawns and tidying gardens, alongside thorough cleaning, can significantly improve first impressions. Additionally, addressing minor repairs and maintenance issues can prevent costly future problems.
