Property for rent
Welcome to our page 47, property for rent
-Property for rent
House renting and hiring other stuff
Dear readers, in this
article about property for rent, we continue to talk about house building, real
estate and properties and how we use them during our lives, you see, we build
houses to live in them. We do that to satisfy our needs, because we want to
feel safe in our own house. But today, you don’t need to build your own house,
because you can also rent them for a price, which would very likely be more
convenient for some people.
Today renting a house or an apartment
is the way to go, it is very popular, you cannot start talking about renting
anything, that we think about renting or leasing a house, or some other
accommodation, because this is the most important need that people have after
feeding themselves, since everybody needs food and shelter to live well.
Therefore, in this article, we are going to discuss about rental properties and
some hiring equipment, just to show you that today people don't have to own
everything they use. Because they can be rented for a price.
The rental
market is formed by two groups of people, one group of people have no
properties or not enough properties for their own use, and because of this
shortage they want to rent properties from those that are willing to rent their
property for an agreed price, so, they are on the market looking to find the
right property to rent.
On the other
hand, there are people that own a property or several properties that they have
bought, or they have built these properties for renting to other people,
because they know that there is a market of supply and demand on these
properties for rent. Anyhow this is how the rental market works.
In today
markets, not only you can rent a house, an apartment, or some other commercial
or industrial properties, but you can also hire many things. Here in Australia
you can rent even furniture and white goods as well. Most times it works better
this way, you see, even the builders while they are building hire many things,
let us mention a couple of things that are usually hired; scaffolding is
usually hired, there are firms that will also build it up for you, cranes are
usually hired, and other heavy equipment are usually hired, and many other
things can be hired for a price, as long as there is a market for supply and
demand.
But now, let us
go back to talk about houses or other accommodation for rent; as we all know
every one of us have our own ways of doing things, because everyone of us might
be in a different position, also every one of us has his ways of doing these
things. So, to write about this rental property article we should write it our
own way, therefore let us see what we have been writing lately, and tell our
story our own way, the best way we can, as we have done in our section D.I.Y
brickwork etc. Because now we want to talk about renting a property ourselves.
So, let us talk about it here-under.
D.I.Y property for rent
Lately in this
DIY section we have mainly talked about how to build houses, units and other
accommodation and perhaps even some industrial property. Okay we have done that
or at least part of it anyhow, but at this point of time one may start asking
about the use of these properties that have been built, renovated or repaired,
because it would be obvious that we could not keep all of them for our own use,
so the properties that we have talked about, if they have not an owner that
uses them already, they have to be sold or rented, so, we have to decide how we
will do that, it is a fact of life.
So, let us say
at this point of time, that we have been lucky enough in our life, and today we
happen to have some properties that we are renting, now a unit has become
vacant, so, we need to rent this unit again. Because we have this extra
property that we are not going to use for ourselves, we should consider renting
it, as soon as possible. But who is going to do the renting we have to decide,
of course, we could go to the local real estate agents, and ask them to let our
property, they would be glad to do it for a price, but in this case we have
decided not to use the real estate agents, because we would like to have a go
at renting this property ourselves, at least we would like to try, because we
could save money and also learn something from doing it our own way.
We have some
experience about renting and we know that sometimes it is not easy to rent
yourself, but we are willing to have a go, because we believe that by renting
ourselves, we don’t have to pay the real estate agent first of all, and then we
believe that we would have more control on the rental property, just because we
are the owners and would try harder to see anything that needs to be done.
However we are
not as knowledgeable as the real estate agent, since he is an expert on these
sort of things, and also sometimes it is not easy to discuss things directly
with the tenants; you see the real estate agent has some advantage in this
field, not only because it is his job, but because he is a third person, so
when he does not want to clarify some inquiries to the new tenant, he can
always say that he would like to talk to the owner first; there is also
something else that the agents have but the owners do not, you see they can
look at the pool of rental records, and see whether the new tenant has a good
rental record, or has been listed on a black list, meaning that these tenants
are trouble.
Anyhow we know
all this and we still would like to rent our property ourselves, so let us
discuss how we are going to do it and the reasons for doing it, because we have
this property for rent and that is a fact of life.
But let us
first explain how this happen. Dear readers let us say that today we are going
out of our usual way, sometimes it is necessary to do this because this is how
life usually turn out to be, I would describe life thus; life has many links,
they link one after another and we move from one link to another, so, you can
start with something and as you move about in next link, things may start to
change and as you continue everything changes even more, so you may end up by
saying or doing something else altogether, but at the same time those links are
still linked to one another, now this description above, is about the same thing
that is happening to our DIY hubs, we have started by building houses, and now
we are renting houses. So, let us continue.
Unit available for rent
We all know
that in our hubs we have been talking about working in the building industry
building houses, units and other buildings; in this article, we are taking the
liberty to rent our houses or apartments, or whatever my family or close
friends have available for rent. I reckon that this is still another link of
the same chain, since we are still talking about houses, apartment and
therefore people accommodations.
The aim of this
hub it two folds, one is that we are taking our readers in a journey of how to
rent a property if you have one, so, one could say that it is DIY rentals, the
other aim is really to rent our property, if we are lucky to find a good tenant
from our written advertisement here, but, if this sort of advertisement does
not bring any would be tenants, then we will have to find another way, so we
will have to place other advertisement on the internet and if necessary in a
local newspaper.
There are a lot
of other things that one should know if you own a property for rent, but we
don’t want to talk about this at the beginning of our hub, because first of all
we would like to show you, or at least tell you about our property for rent,
you see it is important to show this property for rent as soon as possible,
otherwise any readers that is really serious of find a rental property may get
tired and stop reading our advertisement; So it would be better to tell the
readers as soon as possible what we want to rent, which is this flat or unit,
so let us describe what we have today, and lets write an ad as close as
possible how these rental ads are written; so this is how I would write my add
starting from the location of the property, the location of the property is
very important, because that is the first thing that would be tenants would
chose, so, let us start with the name of the suburb or town of this rental
property:
---------------------------------
Writing the rental add
Make
no mistake; this is real ad and a real unit to rent, so, if you live in
Brisbane you could apply to live in this unit, if you require one. but if you
would like to read our hub just to keep informed that's okay, as we are trying
to say a few things that might be interesting, whether you are a landlord or a
tenant, there is something to learn, at least we will be trying to interest
you. Because this article is going to stay in hub pages for a long time, and perhaps one day we might also add other properties for rent, at the top of our ads we will state whether the property is available or not, by using these two phrases: Available from today, when the property is really available; or Not available any more rented, or sold, when the property is no longer available.

-----------------------------
What we need to know about renting
The landlords
should know how to price the property for rent, they should look around and see
the prices of other similar property in the same location or surrounding
suburbs, they should not be greedy wanting more money than what their property
is worth, therefore they should ask for a fair price, even if sometimes that
price is not making much profit, well this is how I believe it should be done.
They should also make sure that the incoming tenants are good people, can
afford the rent, and they rent the property for their own personal use, above
all the incoming tenants should not rent the property to have lots of people
leaving there, they should understand that they should state the number of
people that would be living at the property, they have also to supply their
names in writing, when they apply to rent the property. There are also some
other restrictions that the landlord will let you know when you want to apply
for the property and many other things.
Would be tenants should know that you pay the
market price for what you get, so if they have not rented before, it would be
wise to inspect a few properties, before they decide which one to get, you see,
it is important to know that you are not being ripped off, they should also
make sure somehow that they are dealing with the owner or a person that has
legal authority to rent the premises in the owner name. We are saying this
because in the news sometimes we see these con men that make believe that they
own a property, when they might have only access to the property, so, they may
show you the property grab your money and run.
In order to
avoid most of these drawbacks the landlord needs to ask many questions, in
order to make sure that the tenants are what they say they are; the tenants
also needs to ask some questions, they should at least make sure that they are
dealing with the owners or their legal representative.
These are
really the main things that we all should be trying to do when we are renting a
property, of course there are a lot more that could be said, but we will leave
it for next time, when I edit this hub.
We will say
more about this soon.
Because, we are
talking about house and real estate, here-under is a link about buying a house.
