Choose a tenant on clear criteria

A pleasant first meeting tells you little about how a tenancy will run for the next year. Decide your criteria before the first enquiry and apply the same ones to every applicant: identity documents, an employment letter or trade licence, the ability to meet the agreed payments, the number of people who will live in the home and the move-in date. Ask for a previous landlord's reference where one is available. Put the questions in a short written application, so you compare answers rather than impressions. Say two families apply for your townhouse in Al Ghadeer: one is warmer in person, the other has clearer documents and a move-in date that matches yours. The written answers make that choice easier to explain, and consistent questions keep the process fair. Prepared by Masterpiece Property.
