WHAT TENANTS COMPLAIN THE MOST ABOUT RENTAL AGENTS

Tenants are complaining... And they are right. Their complaint? You give scanty information about: The house The location The tenancy terms Then instead of answering questions, you say: > “Kuja uone nyumba.” And carry Ksh 2,500 for viewing. Big mistake. Tenants Do NOT Rent Houses.

 

They rent:

Safety
Convenience
Status
Peace of mind
Water reliability
Power stability
Security
Proximity to work
Quiet nights
Friendly neighbors
Clear tenancy terms
Predictable costs
Respectful treatment...

Those are intangible benefits.

That is what they want to know before they leave their house.
If your marketing post does not communicate those benefits, you are not marketing.
You are making noise.
And when you charge people because your marketing is weak, you stop being professional and start looking like a corrupt middleman.
You know you are doing it wrong when:
They call asking “funny questions”
They insist on seeing 3– 10 houses
They say “I’ll get back to you” and disappear

They complain about viewing fees

That is not a tenant problem.
That is a positioning problem.
