We start to vet tenants very early at the enquiry stage and ask a series of questions prior to booking the viewing appointments. This is to ensure they are suitable and able to afford payments for the entirety of the tenancy.
We will then show the prospective tenants round the property and make a shortlist of the best 3 candidates.
