A property that re-lets in the same week as a check-out looks like luck. It is rarely luck.
Pre-marketing the property
A few weeks before check-out, with the outgoing tenant’s agreement, schedule viewings for the property. A short, friendly note explaining what to expect goes a long way.
Inventory pre-walk
Visit the property a week before check-out, identify likely deposit deductions and works needed, and book the contractors for the day after the keys come back.
Hold-deposit lined up
Even if check-in dates are not yet final, lining up a hold-deposit holder before the property is empty cuts the void by days.
