Selling a property while tenants are still living there creates a unique set of challenges. Depending on your relationship with your tenants, they could complicate the sale by not giving your real estate agent access to the home for showings. They also might not be motivated to keep the house in show-ready condition. Be sure to discuss your plans with your tenants well in advance of putting up the for-sale sign. Be considerate of their housing needs and concerns about moving. Most Realtors® suggest that you give tenants 24-hours’ notice before a showing whenever possible. Offering to hire a housecleaning service on a weekly basis would demonstrate your appreciation for your tenant’s cooperation. Or, you could reduce their rent slightly while the house is on the market. A little generosity can go a long way.
