Our Residential Leasing Process

At Upstate, we follow a structured process for leasing residential properties that focuses on efficiency, tenant satisfaction, and maximising returns for property owners.

Property Appraisal and Rent Setting

The first step in the leasing process is an accurate property appraisal. We assess your property based on its location, size, features, and condition to set a competitive rent that aligns with the current market. Our team of experts uses up-to-date data to ensure your property is priced to attract quality tenants while maximising your rental income.

Marketing Your Property to Attract Tenants

Once the rent is set, we begin marketing your property. At Upstate, we use a combination of traditional and digital marketing strategies to ensure maximum exposure. This includes listing your property on the most popular real estate portals, social media promotion, and email marketing campaigns targeting our extensive database of potential tenants. Our professional photographers capture your property’s best features, ensuring high-quality listings that draw attention.

Tenant Selection and Screening

Tenant selection is crucial to the long-term success of your rental property. At Upstate, we conduct thorough background checks, including credit reports, reference checks, and verification of employment and income. This ensures that tenants have the financial capacity and a good rental history, giving property owners peace of mind. We work to match your property with responsible, reliable tenants who will care for your property and meet all lease obligations.
