If you're a first-time landlord, or just a landlord looking to brush up on some quick tips and advice, let's go over the top tips to get you started in the right direction as you look to rent out your property. 

-- Paint your property. If you have neutral colors, you should be fine. But any accent walls or other unique colors should be painted neutral. Immediatley.

-- Patch all the holes in the wall. 

-- Clean the unit. Have it professionally cleaned or deep clean it yourself.

-- Rent it unfurnished. Get rid of all your furniture. Don't leave any items left behind. 

-- Price it correctly. Your mortgage does not factor into the market price. Do you research on coming up with the market price.
