The relationship between a landlord and his tenant is often fraught with tension. Just ask the average unhappy tenant and he will most likely tell you that his landlord’s sole ambition is to rip him off and make his life as difficult as possible. An unhappy landlord on the other hand, tends to view the situation somewhat differently and feels that no matter how much he does for his tenant, there are always problems, and always reasons to delay paying the rent.

Thinking about renting a property? Here are a few handy tips from us

When you view a property to rent, it pays to be as organised as possible. Our rental viewing checklist below should provide you with basic questions to ask and things to look out for at the property. Whether you are viewing a house or a flat, it could be your home for the foreseeable future, so be prepared and make a rational assessment of the property. staircaseAlthough you're going to be renting a house or a flat rather than buying it, remember that it will be your home for the foreseeable future. Of course you'll have an instant emotional reaction to any property, but you should balance this with a rational assessment of the potential of living in the property, including the local area and amenities, the condition of the property both inside and out and the costs that come with living in it. Obviously, your own priorities will vary depending on whether you're viewing houses, flats, studio flats or just rooms, but the checklist should act as a basic guide to help you keep all of your bases covered.

Tip 1: Bring your paperwork. The best way to win over a prospective landlord is to be prepared. To get a competitive edge over other applicants, bring the following when you meet the landlord: a completed rental application; written references from landlords, employers, and colleagues; and a current copy of your credit report.

If you love Hanoi so much you decide to stay, or are sent here on a volunteer programme or job transfer, you’re likely to want somewhere to live that offers more than a bedroom and bathroom.
