How to Be a Good Tenant!


The price of rental properties in Dubai has extensively diminished in the past couple of years, allowing tenants to bestow lower rents for stunning residential units. However, searching a rental property in a new city and after finding, maintaining a good tenant-landlord relationship is a task! Hence, with the number of tenant disputes on the rise, here are a few quick tips on being a good tenant in order to avoid undue stress, conflicts with your landlord, and even legal trouble:

- Read your lease agreement before you sign: Be alert and attentive while signing the contract and have a detailed look at every clause of the agreement like for pets, guests, house maintenance , noise, garbage, parking, etc. If you find it suitable then only sign the deed, later breaking your lease even on one occasion is a permanent mark on your reputation as a good tenant.
- Be considerate of your neighbors: Before renting an apartment, do the precise inspection of the neighbors as for the matter of fact they may have different work hours and sleep schedules than you. They may get migraines, have a baby sleeping, or may just not have the same taste in music. Noise complaints are one of the most common and most frustrating complaints for a landlord. Even if you aren’t that disruptive, complaints are considered a hassle by your landlord.
- Avoid being high maintenance: Don’t bother your landlord for small repairs like changing a bulb or a tube light or may be just fixing your basin tap tight! Get your landlord into the picture only if there are major maintenance issues like plumbing or leakage.
- Pay on time: Do everything you can to pay your rent on time. As by doing that you can quickly gain credibility in their eyes.
