A quick renovation might be in order and that can mean anything from a new splash of paint, to caulking gaps in the brickwork.

After that, it’s tenants. You’re going to want good tenants, so your property needs to attract good tenants. A good tenant will look after the property, stay there for a long while and will pay the rent on time according to the payment terms laid out by yourself. Ideally, a tenant will come to you with the issues that the property may succumb to so you can protect your investment before issues pile up. Keep the rent competitive and know your target market and you’ll be able to attract a good tenant.
