One of the biggest frustrations for landlords is the time it takes to secure the right tenant. Every week your property sits empty means lost rent — and often unnecessary stress. At The Letting Experts Edinburgh, we’ve solved this problem with our Rental Passport system.

✅ What Is a Rental Passport?
A Rental Passport is a simple but powerful way to pre-qualify applicants before they even view a property. It includes:
Tenant ID and affordability checks
Employment and income verification
Previous landlord references
Credit and background screening
By the time a tenant books a viewing, you already know they are fully qualified and ready to move in.
🚀 Faster Lettings, Fewer Voids
Because we use the Rental Passport system, our applicants are already prepared with the documents landlords need. This means:
Viewings convert to lets much quicker
Fewer wasted appointments with unqualified applicants
Minimal void periods, with new tenants moving in almost immediately after the previous tenancy ends
In fact, many of our properties are let before they’re even advertised publicly, because we already have a pool of pre-checked tenants waiting.
🏆 Why Landlords Benefit
For landlords, the advantages are clear:
Consistent rental income thanks to reduced gaps between tenancies
Peace of mind knowing only vetted tenants are being offered your property
Hassle-free process — we handle the compliance, referencing, and paperwork on your behalf
🔑 The Bottom Line
The Rental Passport is more than just a system — it’s the reason our landlords enjoy fast lettings, reliable tenants, and stronger returns.
