Benefit from Smart Partner REALTORS Deep Investment Property Expertise

Because of our parallel tenure in property management we are also experts at managing the sale of tenant occupied properties and all the intricacies that arise in this delicate process – a very important distinction from your everyday real estate brokerage.

How to Prepare for Your Property Sale and Maximize Value

The first order of business will be to assess the current market value of your rental property and decide if any upgrades, cosmetic repairs or other changes need to be done to the property before listing it for sale. After all, buyers purchase with their eyes so having your property in tip-top condition will go a long way to getting you top dollar.

If you are planning to sell once the tenants have vacated you will have the most control over the condition of the property and when it’s shown. If it is still tenant occupied we can request certain standards be kept for showings and we will work closely with the tenants throughout the process.

Ensure a Smooth Process when Selling Tenant Occupied Property

The next step after any upgrades have been handled is to determine how to show the property if it is tenant occupied. Selling tenant occupied real estate can be challenging but there are a variety of ways to mitigate any issues that may arise. As we have already been managing the tenants for you, we are the best intermediary to handle communications about the prospective sale, setting up showings with the tenants, etc. to ensure a seamless process for both parties. We know how to gently and easily alleviate any issues that may arise during the process of selling tenant occupied real estate so rest assured – we’re prepared to handle everything.
