What makes a good landlord?

We'd like to hear your thoughts on what makes a good or a bad landlord. To get you thinking, here's some inspiration from a recent survey.

Easy communications have come top of a list of what makes a great landlord, followed by dealing with any issues quickly. 

The survey by Upad also found that landlords scored high by giving tenants plenty of notice before entering a property, consulting on suitable times for repairs being carried out and generally keeping in touch throughout the tenancy. 

Tenant dislikes included landlords moaning about the cost of repairs, so-called accidental landlords being too precious about their previous homes, excessive admin fees and cheap furniture.
