Turnover

The full cycle of one tenant moving out and another moving in, including cleaning, repairs, marketing, and lost rent during the vacancy. Lower turnover is one of the biggest drivers of rental profit.

In an empty room between tenants, two owners look over the walls, a box, a cleaning bucket and a paint tray on the floor
  1. Clear out the last tenant's things
  2. Clean and repair
  3. Paint before the next tenant
