SEASONS GREETINGS: A landlords guide to tenant appreciation

Season’s Greetings: A Landlord’s Guide to Tenant Appreciation

Landlords are often portrayed as Grinch-like characters.

Devoid of fun, lacking humanity and relentlessly greedy.

But in our experience, this stereotype simply isn’t true.

In fact, generous landlords often contact us seeking ideas to spread a little Christmas cheer to their tenants.

So here are five little things that can build goodwill and rapport with your tenants.

• A handwritten Christmas card can go a long way. Tailor each message to show you know and value your tenants.
• Assemble small goody bags of seasonal treats like chocolates, biscuits or a small Christmas ornament.
• Consider minor seasonal upgrades to the property – a new doormat or improved lighting for these darker months.
• Offer a winter maintenance check-up, ensuring heating systems run efficiently and the property is weather-proof.
• Acknowledge long-term tenants with a voucher for a local coffee shop, restaurant or gift shop. It recognises their loyalty and supports local businesses – a double dose of festive goodwill.
