As a landlord, you know that time is money.

In this post, we'll explore some effective strategies for minimising no-shows and ensuring that your property viewings run smoothly.

When you remove a listing on myRent, it gets marked as rented, moved to your listing archive and displayed as a previously rented property on the myRent website. If you no longer want this previously rented listing to display it would require the listing to be permanently deleted from your listing archive.

There isn't a magic formula for creating a perfect listing, but here are some tips to consider to improve your listing.

When the property is marked as “under offer”, it means that the landlord has selected the tenants and verbally agreed with them to take their place.

myRent stores your previous tenancies, listings and tenant checks in archive folders that can be found from your dashboard. These will remain here in a read only format unless they have been deleted.

There are two types of property inspections - open homes and private viewings. Both options are great and offer benefits depending on your individual circumstances.

It sounds like you have a great place and looking for new tenants. You've come to the right place. We have everything you need to advertise your property, collect enquiries, applications, vet tenants, run checks and create tenancy paperwork. All while saving you money.

Potential tenants have the ability to apply through your listing or you can invite them to apply through their enquiry.

With open homes, these are open to anyone that wants to view the property. To better gauge how many people are going to attend you can include an option to RSVP.

You can schedule private viewings with selected applicants directly from the listing dashboard. Applicants can accept, reschedule or cancel. We remind prospective tenants the day before they have a viewing booked so they don't forget and don't leave you waiting.
