Melanie Thomas Tenant Swapping: Do You Allow It or Is It a "Notice for All" Policy?
29 April 2025 | 4 replies
Here’s a breakdown of the pros and cons of each approach based on my experience:Tenant Swapping:Pros:Tenant Retention: Keeps the property occupied, which helps avoid vacancy periods.Minimizes Turnover Costs: No need for cleaning, marketing, or re-screening tenants if the new person is already known.Flexibility for Tenants: Can be seen as a more tenant-friendly approach, allowing them to find a replacement without facing penalties.Cons:Risk of Unknown Tenants: The new tenant might not be as reliable as the original one, leading to potential issues down the line.Lease Violations or Delays: If the new tenant doesn’t meet the lease requirements or fails to sign a new agreement, this can lead to complications.Operational Complexity: Keeping track of the lease terms, managing paperwork, and ensuring proper screening for new tenants can increase administrative work.Notice for All (One Notice to Vacate for Everyone):Pros:Clear Expectations: Everyone knows what’s expected, and there are no surprises with last-minute tenant changes.Consistency: Easier to manage leases and tenant turnover with a straightforward system.Quality Control: You can screen all tenants that are moving in, ensuring the new occupant meets your standards.Cons:Longer Vacancy Periods: The property may stay vacant for longer, especially if finding a replacement tenant takes time.Tenant Frustration: Current tenants may not be happy with the requirement to vacate, even if they want to stay.Marketing and Re-screening Costs: You’ll have to go through the process of finding and screening new tenants, potentially leading to increased costs and downtime.I’d love to hear what others are doing!

Investors positioning now, while sentiment remains cautious, are setting themselves up for the next expansionary phase.A few key takeaways for investors right now:Focus on supply-constrained markets: Secondary cities with positive net migration and healthy job growth offer the best setup.Prioritize affordability: Class B and C properties remain where the broadest, most resilient tenant base sits.Plan for longer holding periods: Given the construction slowdown, cash-flow stability will matter even more before appreciation kicks in later.Stay close to the data: Tracking starts, occupancy, and rent growth rates will be critical over the next 18 months.Want to hear more about the markets and opportunities we’re focused on right now?
