Turning an inherited property into a rental income source can be a valuable way to generate additional revenue for your family. Here are some steps to help you get started:

Assess the Property

Begin with a thorough inspection to identify any necessary repairs or updates. Conduct a market analysis to understand the rental potential in your area.

Evaluate Legal and Financial Situations

Ensure the property is legally yours and check for any outstanding debts or liens. Determine the financial requirements for making the property rent-ready.

Complete Renovations and Repairs

Address any structural issues and consider making updates to increase the property’s appeal. This might include modernizing kitchens and bathrooms, improving landscaping, and ensuring all systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) are in good working order.

Prepare for Tenants

Clean and stage the property to make it attractive to potential tenants. Secure the property with proper locks and safety features.

Market the Property

Use high-quality photos and virtual tours to showcase the property online. List the property on rental websites and consider using social media for additional exposure.

Screen and Select Tenants

Implement a thorough screening process to find reliable tenants. This should include credit checks, background checks, and references from previous landlords.

Manage the Property

Regular maintenance and management are crucial for a successful rental property. Consider hiring a property management company like Real Property Management to handle day-to-day operations, tenant relations, and maintenance requests.
