Unit Turnover Checklist: What Actually Happens Between Tenants
from Your Landlord Resource Podcast · host Stacie Casella & Kevin Kilroy
Send us Fan MailTurnovers are one of those parts of being a landlord that either quietly build your profit, or quietly drain it. After doing more of them than I can count, Kevin and I finally sat down and walked through exactly how we handle every single one, from the moment a tenant gives notice to the day we hand a new tenant their keys.I'm covering the non-negotiable safety and maintenance checks we run every time, the paint and flooring calls that make a unit feel brand new without blowing the budget, and the deep cleaning details most landlords skip but shouldn't. We also get into how we decide when to start marketing a vacant unit, and the legal check most landlords forget before they ever post a new listing.And of course, we share a few of our own turnover stories along the way, including the one that's still, hands down, our most expensive turnover ever.What You'll Learn in This Episode· The safety checks we run on every single unit before handing over new keys· Our approach to paint and flooring, and when a full replacement is actually worth it· The deep cleaning details that make the biggest difference to a prospective tenant· How we decide when to start marketing a vacant unit· Why your tenant screening criteria needs a fresh look before every new listing· The lease and move-in steps that keep your turnover moving instead of stalling out Episodes & Resources MentionedEpisode 7: A Guide to Move Out Procedures and Security DepositsEpisode 23 & 24: Marketing Your Rental Property (2-Part Series, starting at EP23)Episode 28: The Cash Reserves Blueprint: Protecting & Expanding Your PortfolioEpisode 32-34: Our Lease and Addendums Masterclass (starts at EP32)Episode 55: Preventative Maintenance That Brings Peace of MindEpisode 124: How to Shoot Rental Property Photos That Get AttentionEpisode 128: AI Tools for LandlordsKwikset Re-Key SetKwikset Re-Key “How To” VideoFire Escape LadderGas Shut-Off WrenchTouch-Up Paint Cups“Welcome” Toilet Paper StickersConnect with Us: 🌎 Visit our website 📧 Subscribe to our newsletter.👆 FREE Landlord Forms and Doc’s🤳Text Us: 650-489-4447📩Email us at: [email protected], [email protected] ➡️ Give us a review: Apple or on Spotify or YouTube ✔️Course Waitlist📱 Instagram, Facebook, & Private Facebook group
