Landlords: Prepare Your Property Before Winter

Winter lets are often slower, so shorter void periods matter. A property that is clean, dry and well presented lets and re-lets faster.

Before winter

  • Check for damp, leaks and failing seals now, and fix them before they spread
  • Make sure extractor fans and vents work and are clean
  • Bleed radiators and check the heating
  • Have the property deep cleaned between tenants, including ovens, windows and carpets

Plan the turnaround

Book the repairs first, then the clean, then the viewings. Photographs after the clean double as a record for the new inventory.
