Three 専門家s explain how tenants can （警官の）巡回区域，受持ち区域 the 競争 to 安全な・保証する a 賃貸しの home in a hot market

• e-mail

Tenants are 耐えるing the brunt of a 住宅 供給（する） 危機 in the 賃貸しの market, 軍隊ing them to compete ひどく over each and every 所有物／資産／財産 that comes to market.

The number of enquiries each 所有物／資産／財産 is receiving from would-be tenants has more than ３倍になるd, from eight in October 2019 to 25 today, によれば Rightmove.

It is driven by the fact that the number of homes 利用できる to rent is nowhere の近くに to matching the number of people wanting to move.?

There are 41 per cent more tenants looking to move now than in 2019, says Rightmove, but the 供給（する） of homes to rent is 負かす／撃墜する by 35 per cent.

供給（する） and 需要・要求する mismatch: There are now many more tenants 捜し出すing to move than pre-pandemic - but より小数の 所有物／資産／財産s 利用できる to house them

This has not only made rents much more expensive, but also made finding a new home a herculean 仕事, which can be both emotionally and mentally 税金ing.

Alasdair Mcclenahan, 創立者 of the renter support service, 司法（官） For Tenants says: 'This is the toughest time to be a 私的な renter for many years. Renters are 支払う／賃金ing a higher 百分率 of their income on rent than at any point in the last 50 years.

'With 利益／興味 率s 主要な many landlords to leave the market, we are seeing a short-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 供給（する） 不足, 原因（となる）ing 激しい 競争 between renters.

'It is not uncommon for ten 可能性のある tenants to 見解（をとる） a 所有物／資産／財産 同時に, with スパイ／執行官s asking everyone to put in their best 企て，努力，提案.'

This system of 'best 企て，努力，提案s' is ますます ありふれた, and 要求するs tenants to 明言する／公表する the 最大限 量 of rent they would be willing to 支払う／賃金 above the advertised price.?

We asked 所有物／資産／財産 専門家s how tenants can 改善する their chances of 安全な・保証するing the home they want in the dog-eat-dog 賃貸しの market.??

令状 the landlord a letter?

If the 普通の／平均（する） renter is competing against two dozen other applicants it is 決定的な to do everything possible to make themselves stand out from the （人が）群がる.

申し込む／申し出ing to 支払う／賃金 more is the obvious 手段, but there are a number of other things renters can do to show they are an attractive prospect for a landlord.?

In much the same way as someone might 扱う／治療する a 職業 使用／適用, renters are 存在 advised to send a polite email と一緒に any 申し込む／申し出.

Mcclenahan says: 'When 適用するing for a 所有物／資産／財産, sending a polite email with some （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） about yourself and the other occupants, along with all the （警察などへの）密告，告訴（状） that a landlord would want to know, can be helpful.

'Many letting スパイ／執行官s will 簡単に 今後 this email to the landlord. If there is a group of tenants who have sent a polite email which shows they will be good tenants, and have proactively 株d their 雇用 status and income, a landlord may feel more comfortable.'

Show that you're 'the 権利 fit'

Richard Davies, 長，指導者 operating officer at Chestertons letting スパイ／執行官s, says some renters are going even その上の in their 成果／努力s to curry favour with landlords and letting スパイ／執行官s.

He says: 'にもかかわらず the competitiveness of the market, we still see landlords who want to make sure that their 所有物／資産／財産 is looked after.?

'They therefore favour the tenant who appears to be "the 権利 fit" over the tenant who 申し込む／申し出s to 支払う／賃金 above asking rent.

Best foot 今後: In much the same way as someone might 扱う／治療する a 職業 使用／適用, renters are 存在 advised to send a polite email と一緒に any 申し込む／申し出

'Some tenants have taken their 所有物／資産／財産 search to a new level by 供給するing carefully 行為／行うd letters to the landlord, explaining why they are the ideal tenant for their 所有物／資産／財産.

'Others are willing to agree to longer tenancies, 支払う／賃金 t 相続人 rent upfront or even 支払う／賃金 more than the requested rent. This is really only advisable if you are comfortable doing so.'

減少（する） your 計画（する）s for the 権利 home?

存在 用意が出来ている with 言及／関連s from a 現在の 雇用者 and landlord will also be important, によれば Dan Wilson Craw, 副 長，指導者 (n)役員／(a)執行力のある of the （選挙などの）運動をする group, 世代 Rent.

This 許すs you to move quickly once you find the 権利 home.??

He says: 'It's important to be 用意が出来ている with the 言及／関連s from your 雇用者 and 現在の landlord so you can move quickly to make an 申し込む／申し出.

'It helps to be 用意が出来ている to 減少（する） other things ーするために visit a 可能性のある house and make an 申し込む／申し出.?

'The 現在の 明言する／公表する of the 私的な rented 部門 means that if you don't move quickly, you might lose the house you would prefer to be in.'

Be smart: Trying to 申し込む／申し出 勝利，勝つ the landlord over doesn't?やむを得ず mean 支払う／賃金ing more rent. Some landlords prefer longer tenancy 協定s or receiving the rent upfront

Be willing to 妥協?

In the 現在の market, renters may also need to 妥協 on the type of 所有物／資産／財産 or the area in which they wish to live.

'Given the 欠如（する） of affordable homes, renters often have to 妥協,' 追加するs Wilson Craw. 'It's important to know what is 必須の to your home and what you can be 柔軟な on.

'Does the home have to be within a 確かな distance of where you are living now? What 肉親，親類d of size 必要物／必要条件s do you have, and could you live in a smaller space if you had to?

'と一緒に space, defining how much you can afford is really important. If you don't earn more than 2.5 times the rent then the landlord or スパイ／執行官 will often ask you to get a guarantor or 支払う／賃金 several months' rent up 前線.'

選ぶ up the phone to your letting スパイ／執行官?

It is also advisable that renters are proactive in their search and responsive to letting スパイ／執行官s phone calls and emails.

Richard Davies of Chestertons, says: 'We always advise tenants to start their 所有物／資産／財産 search as 早期に as possible and 知らせる their 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 about their planned moving date.

Rising: The 年４回の change in 普通の／平均（する） advertised 賃貸しの prices, によれば Rightmove data

'To 増加する your chances of 安全な・保証するing the 所有物／資産／財産 you like, 確実にする that you have all necessary paperwork in place.

'Finding a new home and moving can be a stressful experience but don't forget that your 広い地所 スパイ／執行官 is here to help.

'Therefore, we recommend staying in 正規の／正選手 接触する with your スパイ／執行官 and give them honest feedback に引き続いて each 見解（をとる）ing as it will help finding the 権利 所有物／資産／財産 for you as quickly as possible.'

In a ひどく 競争の激しい market, renters who have pets will often find it even harder, によれば Davies.

'Tenants who have pets also often 直面する the challenge of finding a pet-friendly 所有物／資産／財産 which is why Chestertons 以前 supported Dogs 信用's Lets with Pets 計画／陰謀 ーするために encourage landlords to welcome pets into their 所有物／資産／財産.

'Some tenants even create Pet CV's, 輪郭（を描く）ing the training their pet may have had and explaining that there won't be any 損失 to the 所有物／資産／財産.'
