PlanetRent. Keeping tenants happy and informed

Building Strong Landlord-Tenant Relationships

Good communication is key to a successful landlord-tenant relationship. The Ringley Group’s PlanetRent helps landlords provide tenants with all the necessary information to ensure a smooth rental experience.

When tenants understand what is expected from them – and what they can expect from their landlord – the likelihood of disputes is significantly reduced.

Why Tenant Awareness Matters

Many tenants lack knowledge about their rights and responsibilities, often leading to unnecessary conflicts. According to a National Landlords Association (NLA) survey, around 80% of tenants feel they need better information about:

  • The role of landlords and letting agents
  • Their rights and responsibilities
  • How the rental process works

This knowledge gap creates avoidable misunderstandings, making it crucial for landlords to communicate effectively from the beginning.

How PlanetRent Enhances Communication

Now, every landlord can provide a professional rental experience with the PlanetRent app. PlanetRent ensures that tenants receive a first-class welcome – even if different agents manage properties in various locations.

Our tenants’ portal offers a transparent and high-quality lettings journey, making the rental process clear and simple from the very start.

Why court reform is needed as well as possession hearings
The rental sector is holding its breath as the deadline for re-opening the courts to start possession hearings draws perilously close. We have seen two extensions to the evictions ban since the courts closed in March and the huge backlog of cases waiting to be heard must be tackled. Landlord organisations are urging the Government to stick to the timetable – quite rightly in our view. ARLA estimates that when the stay on possession claims expi...
