Before your property goes on the rental market, there are a few essentials every landlord should tick off:

Legal safety checks: Gas, electrical, smoke alarms and energy certificates are all legal requirements.

Tenant appeal: Small improvements — from a fresh coat of paint to a tidy garden — can make a big difference.

Setting the right rent: Aim too high and the property may sit empty; too low and you could lose income.
