Buying to Let Checklist
- Choose the right property: what type of property will appeal to your target tenant? Research the market using local estate agents, newspapers, websites and local authorities.
- Select a location: visit the area and talk to local people and businesses. Check transport links, parks, shops and schools. Choose a property and a location that will appeal to your target tenant, for example near a university or railway station.
- Find tenants: know the type of tenant you’re looking for – student, professional, family. Check tenants’ references and draw up a sound contract.
- Manage the property: do you live close enough to deal with emergencies, or can you afford a letting agent? Complete a full inventory of contents, furnishings and appliances.
