Most nightmare tenancies don’t start badly.

They start quietly.

Everything looks fine. Good tenant. Correct paperwork. No obvious issues.

Then small warning signs appear… and get ignored.

Spoiler : that’s usually where things go wrong.

Tenancy problems rarely explode overnight. They build from small, avoidable mistakes, like:

• Rushing tenant selection to fill a void

• Leaving expectations vague from day one

• Slow or patchy communication

• Putting off “minor” maintenance

• Letting emotion replace professionalism

Individually, these don’t feel dramatic. Together, they create stress, conflict, and costly outcomes.

The good news? Most of this is preventable.

Clear systems, calm processes, and experienced management keep tenancies smooth and predictable.

And in lettings, predictable is a win.

Boring tenancies aren’t a failure.

They’re a sign that everything’s working exactly as it should.
