Renting out a House

Most of the work of leasing a property to a tenant will be undertaken by your letting agent, so lawyers may only be required if there is a problem.

Nevertheless, legli is a very useful platform for landlords to run their tenancies because it allows you to establish a separate ‘issue’ for each tenancy, to automate, assemble and manage documents in relation to that tenancy, to maintain a calendar of events and processes, and to maintain a set of contacts for various service providers needed to maintain your properties.

Sometimes you will need to write to a tenant in relation to various issues, for example, unpaid rent, maintenance issues, inspections, fire regulations and the like. You can access and maintain a set of documents for these purposes, assemble them using the contact details of your tenants, insurance companies and authorities, and retain them in the in-built document management system. This is far more efficient and reliable than maintaining a folder on your PC.
