Tenant Selection | Why It Goes Wrong and How The Avenue Gets It Right

Lettings should feel simple, transparent and stress free, yet many landlords tell us the opposite. If you’re tired of chasing updates or repeating yourself to different people, this will help you understand why it happens and how The Avenue makes communication effortless.

Many landlords join us with the same problem.
Their agent chose the wrong tenant.

Has this happened to you?
Do you know how your agent checks tenants?
Have you ever seen their full process?

Problems happen when agents
  • Rush to fill the property
  • Tick boxes instead of doing real checks
  • Skip long term suitability
  • Accept the first applicant
This can cause
  • Missed rent
  • Damage
  • Stress
  • Longer voids



How The Avenue Gets It Right


We choose tenants carefully because the right one protects your income.

Our process includes:
  • Checks before any viewing
  • Full referencing beyond the basics
  • Matching for long term fit
  • Director approval on every tenant

Ask yourself:

Has your agent ever shown you their checks?
Do you know why your current tenants were approved?

Our method leads to
  • Reliable tenants
  • Longer stays
  • Better property care

In October 2025, a significant shift started to take shape in the UK property market, one that will affect both buyers and sellers alike.
