You have one or more rental housing and you may find that performance is not very high these days, given all the work that you request. How could you increase the amount of rent you receive each month? How to extend the average length of rental, so you end up as little as possible without tenants?
Do not limit your offer to four walls and a roof. Your tenants should think and feel that this is not a standard rental available to them. Give them a custom housing with objects, up-to-day services corresponding to the specific needs of their families. You can easily get tens of dollars each month in addition to the customization … and your tenant wants to stay longer because your home may better suit their needs.
Make a study each year with your tenants. Ask your tenants each year what they would like to see added to their homes and for which they would pay a little more. This can be a computer, internet access already set up and trouble-free, extra storage space, air conditioning, lighting, various … You can even offer them suggestions annually, having already conducted a cost study.
Submit an up-to-day customized to new entrants. When you organize visits to find a new tenant, tell visitors what they see is a standard accommodation. And you offer up-to-day they can choose to receive a customized housing. Ask visitors if they want to keep the additions to the previous tenant, for a small additional cost from the rent charged. They obviously want to benefit. If you think you have probably already done well to date such additions. It is simply to pay this additional service.
If the house or apartment you rent is not just a standard accommodation, if your tenant believes that he lives in a home with personalized additions that he has chosen, there will be twice as long and will be ready to pay more for this service. And you got what result easily.
