The tenant has to agree for the prescribed rent, and proper maintenance of the rented property. Prior to this agreement the landlord has to send a message of vacancy through some media and do some verification on the trust worthiness of the tenant. The landlord also needs to verify whether he would get regular rental payment from the prospective tenant.

Such services are offered by some property management companies. These services are availed by landlords, paying a commission. This commission amount is almost equivalent to some percentage on the rent. It will be collected on monthly basis by the property management company.
