Hi All,
I just thought I'd mention something that I've been discussing with my landlords and the feedback has been really positive.
13 Month leases. If your property is due for a lease renewal or is being rented out in December why not ask if the tenants would like a 13 month lease? That way you have a tenant on a fixed term agreement over the Holiday period without having to advertise and try to find a tenant when people don't do a lot of moving.
I've had quite a few landlords and tenants take me up on the idea because it offers the landlord some security over a bad time to have an empty property and the tenant is secure that they won't be asked to leave at a horrible time to have to move out!
Be interested if any of you have tried this before, I've done it over the years and it's worked well so far. Better to be renting a property out in January than in December.
