A successful tenancy starts with getting the beginning right.

A complete service to get your property marketed, referenced and ready for the start of the tenancy.

Finding the right tenant involves far more than putting a property online.

From preparing the marketing and handling enquiries to conducting viewings, carrying out comprehensive referencing and preparing the tenancy documentation, our team manages the process from the first instruction through to move-in.

The letting journey

Nine stages. One considered start.

  1. 01

    Prepare

    We begin by understanding the property, the landlord’s requirements and how the home should be positioned within the local rental market. This gives us a clear plan before the property is launched.

  2. 02

    Present

    Strong presentation helps attract the right applicants. Our marketing service can include:

    • Professional property photography
    • Floorplans
    • Detailed property descriptions
    • Carefully prepared property particulars

    The imagery and description present the property accurately and professionally.

  3. 03

    Advertise

    The property is marketed across the major online property platforms used by prospective tenants. We can also support the marketing through Reliance Estates’ own digital and social media channels.

  4. 04

    Handle enquiries

    Our team manages incoming interest, responds to enquiries and discusses the property with prospective tenants, helping identify suitable applicants before viewings progress.

    The aim is not simply to generate enquiries. It is to find the right tenant for the property.

  5. 05

    Viewings

    We coordinate and conduct property viewings and deal with the follow-up communication afterwards. Where appropriate, we gather relevant information about the prospective tenant’s position and interest before progressing an application.

  6. 06

    Reference

    Applicants progressing towards a tenancy undergo comprehensive referencing and the appropriate Right to Rent checks. This due diligence helps provide the landlord with a clearer understanding of the proposed tenant before the tenancy is agreed.

  7. 07

    Prepare the paperwork

    Once the tenancy is agreed, our team prepares and coordinates the relevant documentation. This can include the appropriate:

    • Tenancy agreement
    • Tenant information
    • Deposit arrangements
    • Rent payment arrangements
    • Move-in documentation
    • Other tenancy setup paperwork
  8. 08

    Set up the tenancy

    We coordinate the final steps before occupation: organising the tenancy information, putting agreed arrangements in place and making sure landlord and tenant understand the next steps. The aim is a clear and organised start.

  9. 09

    Move in

    Once everything is ready, we coordinate the beginning of the tenancy and the tenant’s move into the property.

    • Keys handed over
    • Tenancy started
    • Rent arrangements in place

    For landlords choosing ongoing management, this is where our Management service takes over.

Starting a tenancy well

The right tenancy starts before move-in day.

Getting the beginning right matters.

Good letting is about more than finding somebody who wants the property. The quality of the presentation, how enquiries are handled, the checks carried out before the tenancy and the way the paperwork is prepared all contribute to a stronger start.

Our job is to bring those pieces together and help landlord and tenant begin the tenancy with clear expectations.
