Getting a tenancy off to a good start begins long before the tenant collects the keys. In this video, James from the Eastern Landlords Association (ELA) takes you through the process of setting up a new tenancy from start to finish. Using one of his own rental properties as a real-world example, we look at the practical steps landlords should consider when preparing, marketing and letting a property in England. We cover the journey from getting the property ready and advertising for a tenant, through to tenant referencing, Right to Rent checks, holding deposits, tenancy agreements, deposit protection, inventories and schedules of condition, compliance documents, and move-in day. The aim is simple: to help landlords get the foundations right, understand their responsibilities and create a smoother start to the tenancy for everyone involved. 🏠 In this video we cover: Preparing a property for letting Advertising and finding prospective tenants Holding deposits Tenant referencing and Right to Rent Agreeing the tenancy Providing the relevant compliance documents Signing the tenancy agreement Protecting the tenancy deposit Preparing an inventory / schedule of condition Meter readings and utilities Handing over the keys and moving the tenant in Eastern Landlords Association supports landlords across England with practical guidance, landlord documents, legislative updates, a landlord helpline and a growing range of member services.

Many landlords assume they must wait until a tenant owes three months' rent before taking action under Ground 8. However, by serving a Section 8 notice under Grounds 10 and 11 as soon as arrears arise, it may be possible to start possession proceedings sooner and build a stronger case if the arrears continue to increase.
