Collecting rent, sending rent receipts, reviewing the rent, reconciling charges, responding to an unpaid rent, monitoring works: managing a rented property takes time and a good knowledge of the rules. Some owners entrust it to a professional, while others manage it themselves. This section helps you make that choice and manage your property properly on a day-to-day basis: landlord obligations, guarantees against unpaid rent, accounting and relations with the tenant. It is aimed in particular at owners of properties let year-round, from Dieppe to Saint-Valery-en-Caux. To delegate this management, discover our rental management packages.
The Visale guarantee protects landlords by taking over for unpaid rent and, subject to conditions, certain damage, then Action Logement seeks reimbursement from the tenant for the sums paid.
Faced with unpaid rent, the landlord must act quickly, first, if possible, by seeking an amicable solution, then by serving a demand for payment and initiating court proceedings if the debt persists. Compliance with deadlines and formalities determines whether rent recovery can resume.
Before signing with a property management agency, the professional card, financial guarantee and professional liability insurance must be checked, as they determine the right to operate and the security of the sums collected.
The agency fees payable by the owner cover letting the property, except for the application file, viewing, tenancy agreement and, in some cases, the incoming inventory, which may be shared with the tenant within strict caps. Everything else is payable by the landlord.
To rent a property year-round through an agency in Veules-les-Roses, check its guarantees and the share of fees paid by the tenant: no more than half, subject to a maximum of €8.07 including VAT per m² for the application, viewing and tenancy agreement.
