A “new lease” on life

Category News

Spring is in the air and we can feel the chill make way for brighter days and longer nights. For many, this is a time of new beginnings and fresh starts as we prepare to enjoy the end-of-year festivities and look forward to spending more time on the things that make life worth living. One of the main components of living La Dolce Vita is the property you call home. The rental market in South Africa is a thriving one, with numerous opportunities for the modern, aspirational homeowner who is looking to sample different types of properties or areas before making a purchase

Flexible leasing and the rules 

The best chance you have of moving out of your current rental home before the lease is up is to find a replacement tenant willing to take over the remaining months/years. If your landlord is happy with this agreement, you are free to find and occupy alternative residential properties to let. This is the ideal scenario. Without this, you will have to adhere to the lease’s exit clauses or respect the terms and conditions until the stipulated end date. When you are free from current leasing commitments, you have a world of rental options available. 

Track records - they are important 

New landlords may ask for bank statements and proof of finances. This may be in the form of pay slips or savings accounts. When filling out new lease applications and hoping to get approved, landlords will often speak to previous landlords to gain a sense of what to expect by having you as a tenant. It would be beneficial to you if you left each rental property on good terms in order to receive great references and recommendations on your rental journey! We offer the best property management services that ensure you always have a good experience as a landlord or as a tenant. Make use of our professional expertise and management skills at every step of your listing or renting process. 

Rental admin fees explained and what they are used for 

Landlords may choose the option of having to use a property agency for the administrative work involved in the lease application. This includes credit and reference checks, property inspections, drawing up a lease agreement, additional key cutting or any other extra requirements. Tenants are liable to pay this fee upfront and thereafter an agreed-upon maintenance fee can be included in the lease agreement to facilitate invoices and ensure smooth running of the rental property.
