Property Management in Norfolk, VA: The Perfect Open-House

KRS Holdings - Wednesday, February 24, 2016
Rental showings are one of the most time consuming activities in Property Management Norfolk, VA . The preparation leading up to rental showing can be a time trap if you do not have a systematic approach to conducting a walk through. It would be inefficient to schedule a separate walk-through for each individual requesting an appointment to view the property. Don't spend unnecessary hours showing the property; schedule a walk through and have several persons attend simultaneously. Property management in Norfolk,VA can conduct your open house to yield the maximum benefit. The benefits of an open house include concurrent showings, and many prospective tenants view the property during the same time period. When potential tenants see other interested persons viewing the same property, a sense of urgency is created, and competitive applicants have a higher propensity to decide quickly. This often results in multiple bids. For personal safety and security reasons, it is a plus to show a rental property in a group setting; this avoids the discomfort of being alone in a property with a stranger. To add that personal touch to rental showings, the open house can also be conducted by scheduling persons to attend sequentially and ensuring that time is allotted to each potential tenant. This will allow the proposed renter an opportunity to have a detailed viewing, ask pertinent questions about the property, and receive the information they need to make an informed decision. Lastly, when scheduling your open house choose a time that caters to the needs of working persons and during daylight hours.
