Void ManagementUpon receipt of a notice to vacate the property, our in house lettingsteam is promptly notified to initiate marketing procedures, aswell asallocating an appointment in the diary to complete end of tenancyworks with our in house property maintenance team. A pre-End of Tenancy visit is scheduled with the departing tenant tofacilitate the return of the property in an acceptable condition. Thesevisits have proven invaluable in improving property conditions, therebyincreasing the likelihood of tenants receiving a greater portion of theirdeposit back. Additionally, they reduce the need for extensivemaintenance works, enabling a faster turnover for incoming tenants.Subsequently, a checkout is scheduled, and upon completion of thecheckout report by our in house Tenant Liasion Advisers, a thoroughreview is conducted to determine necessary works, including potentialCAPEX requirements. Whilst the property is void the following actions are taken:Quotes received for End Of Tenancy WorksEnd of Tenancy works instructed End of Tenancy works commence and scheduled completion dateis relayed to the lettings team so they can start the process ofmoving the new tenants in.Tenants deposits are processedPayment of utility and council tax bills are dealt with during the voidperiodRegular vacant property inspections are completedDuring the winter months Thermostats are set to anti frost settings Water is turned off to minimise leaks within the propertyGardens are scheudled to be cut in line with the groundsmaintenance contract36 Resulting in a success rate of 96% on deposit recovery
