Hi,

If you have the intention to rent out the whole unit and want to avoid the hassle of going back to open the door each time a potential tenant wants to view the place, you may either allocate a viewing time slot for viewing. Usually we will allocate 1 weekday evening and 1 weekend for viewings, 1 hr each will be enough. By renting out the place on your own you save on agent service fees but you have to do your own marketing, answer phone/email enquiries, conduct viewings, and prepare your own paperwork.

Alternatively you may want to engage the service of a real estate professional to manage all these enquiries and viewings for you.
An agent will be able to minimize hassle for you by taking care of marketing, enquiries, qualifying of tenants, paperwork etc. By engaging the services of an agent he/she will be able to help you manage all lease related matters during the lease term.

If its a vacant unit you may just leave the keys with the agent, but just make sure you go through the inventory list with him first.

If you require more advise, feel free to contact me.

Shalom & regards,
