A Smarter Way to Run Your Rental in 2026

Here are five resolutions that can help.

1)      Aim to run your rental like a business, not a background task.

2)      Know your true costs, review rent properly and keep records tidy.

3)      Get ahead of maintenance, not behind it.

4)      Communicate more clearly with tenants.

5)      Clear expectations and timely responses reduce friction, complaints, and voids.

Also, stay on top of compliance before it becomes urgent.

January is the perfect time to check certificates, legislation changes, and key dates.

And ask for advice earlier than feels necessary.

To make these resolutions stick, build habits, not to-do lists.

Use reminders, simple systems, and professional support.
