Frequently asked questions
What documents should I ask a prospective tenant for?
An identity document, recent proof of income, proof of employment situation and, if possible, references from a previous landlord. The list of permitted documents depends on the country: only ask for what the regulations allow.
What rent-to-income ratio should I use for a tenant?
Many landlords aim for rent that doesn't exceed about a third of the household's net income. It's a benchmark, not a rule: a solid guarantor or significant savings can make up for it.
How can I compare several applications quickly?
By applying the same criteria to everyone, in the same order: completeness of the file, rent-to-income ratio, stability, guarantees, references. Locagex gathers the applications received through your listings and helps you compare them side by side.
