Who is the landlord?
The landlord is the party who lets the property. Most often this is the owner, but it can also be an agent acting for them, such as a property management agency. Facing them, the tenant is the one who occupies the home in exchange for rent.
The landlord’s obligations
Receiving rent is not only a right; it is the counterpart of obligations: to deliver a home in good condition, to carry out major repairs, and to guarantee the tenant peaceful enjoyment. These commitments are set out in the lease.
Private or professional landlord
A landlord may hold a single home or an entire portfolio. As the number of properties grows, manual tracking shows its limits. A rental management tool lets a landlord run rents, receipts and arrears without losing the thread.
