How to secure your ideal rental property.

1. Be Prepared 

Know precisely what you're looking for in a rental property. Consider essential factors such as parking, furnishings, outdoor space, proximity to work or schools, and access to amenities. Having a clear idea will streamline your search and help you make decisions fast. 

‍

2. Set Realistic Expectations

In a competitive market like Manchester's, flexibility is key. Have a primary list of must-have features but be prepared to compromise on non-essentials. Being flexible might open doors to unexpected opportunities.

‍

3. Search on Trusted Channels

Avoid social media or unverified platforms when searching for properties. All of our properties are advertised on Rightmove, so search Parello’s Rightmove listings daily and set up alerts.  Rely on reputable real estate agencies or property listing websites to ensure legitimacy and protect yourself from potential scams.

‍

4. Act Decisively

Properties in high-demand areas don't stay on the market for long. But don’t book a viewing if you’re not serious about a property. Something right for you will come along swiftly, as new listings are added daily. If you are interested, schedule a viewing, be decisive, and when you find a suitable place complete our application form.

5. Be Ready to Sign

Get your references ready from previous landlords in advance and prepare necessary documents, such as proof of employment and identification. Being ready is essential, as the property won’t be secured until you sign your tenancy agreement.

Conclusion

Being prepared, flexible and decisive is key to securing your dream rental in the UK’s most in-demand city. Keep checking the Parello blog and social media channels for more tips on how to be successful in Manchester’s booming rental market.
