Firstly, let your fingers and mouth do the viewings. A good letting agent will show plenty of photos and give a good description of the property hence filtering out unsuitable properties. DON'T start arranging viewings if in your heart you know you want a garden and unfurnished if a property seems lovely but has no outdoor space and is offered as furnished. Although in renting there will always be more compromises than when buying having a thorough 15 minute chat to the agent about your requirements, situation and any property will save you time. You shouldn't view more than 3 properties or else you aren't being honest to yourself or the agent with your real desires and will probably get them muddled up in your mind. A good letting agent will help with these discussions and almost discourage a viewing if the property isn't right for you. At Belvoir Guildford lettings and property management we will ask about your current set up, why and when are you moving, work circumstances, preferences relating to parking, gardens, furnished, pets etc and then talk to you about the property available to rent - for example we currently have a property with a small kitchen and we will tell you and ask if this is important to you, if you say you cook a lot then we will say that perhaps this one isn't for you. We tell you about the layout, which floor it is on etc
A good lettings agent will only show you a property that ticks all the essential boxes. So happy hunting and do yourself a favour by asking the letting agent lots of questions before arranging the viewing.
