No Tenant Found After 2 weeks

Landlord Discussion
1

Why, after two weeks, have we not received a single tenant enquiry for our property? We’ve set the rent lower than similar flats in the same block, and we’ve spent tens of thousands of pounds on renovations. This situation makes no sense to me, and I have no idea what’s going wrong.

I paid £69 for the property to be listed on Zoopla and Rightmove too, but when I check those sites, the advert doesn’t seem to be placed properly.

Every time I call OpenRent, I’m told that a message will be sent to their “landlord section,” but all I receive are generic emails with no real assistance, just the same information that’s already on the website.

Can someone please help me with this issue as I have totally lost my trust in Open Rent. Thank you.

Get a family member or friend to send a test enquiry. Does it come through? Dont use your own phone or computer.

Does the property show up on RM? Are photos to a good standard? Are similar properties taking ages to let?

You say its not placed correctly… can you explain what you mean? have you checked the address & postcode inputted to the Openrent listing are correct?

Does your listing come up when you search the geographical area on openrent?

When I reviewed the advert on Prime Location and Rightmove, I noticed that crucial details about the property were missing. For example, the advert lists:
• Deposit required: Not available
• Council tax band: Not available
• Letting arrangements: Not available
• Utilities and more details: Missing
This is a poor advertisement, as it fails to provide essential information about the property.

If you can’t be bothered to answer our queries you will struggle to get any help.

Even with those details missing it’s unlikely to make any significant difference.

On openrent, you as the advertiser put the advert details directly onto the system.

Have you checked your advert or tried to correct it?

If you have and it will not accept your editing? Then email openrent asking them to help you.

They have always responded, fairly promptly to me.
