⏳ How to Avoid Void Periods in Your Rental Property.
For landlords, empty weeks = lost income.
Void periods are the silent killers of rental profitability. Every day your property sits unoccupied, it’s money you’re not earning — and stress you don’t need.
At Citizenz Properties LTD, we specialise in keeping properties fully tenanted with high-quality, long-term renters. If you're tired of gaps between tenants, here's how to keep the rent flowing every single month.
🧠 1. Start Marketing Before the Current Tenant Moves Out
Don’t wait until the property is empty.
✅ Start viewings 2–4 weeks before the current tenant’s lease ends.
✅ Have high-quality photos and descriptions ready to go.
💡 Bonus tip: Offer flexible viewing times — evenings and weekends often get faster results.
📸 2. Make Your Listing Stand Out
Renters scroll fast. A bland listing blends in — a great one gets booked.
✅ Use:
Bright, professional photos
Short video walk-throughs
Clear, benefit-driven descriptions
Highlight lifestyle, not just layout.
🎯 3. Price It Right — Not Wishful Thinking
An overpriced property will sit empty. A well-priced one creates urgency.
✅ Use tools like Rightmove, Zoopla, and local comparisons to stay competitive.
✅ Consider offering bills included or fast Wi-Fi to increase appeal.
🛠️ 4. Keep the Property in Great Condition
Tenants are pickier now — and they should be.
✅ Fix minor repairs, repaint scuffed walls, deep-clean bathrooms and kitchens.
✅ Consider small upgrades like new blinds, lighting, or a fresh doorbell.
Clean + cared-for = faster let.
