Greater London Properties (GLP) stands out with its two-tiered approach to tenant referencing, combining both internal and external checks. Internal referencing involves personal reviews by GLP’s team, which looks at rental history and conducts thorough interviews with previous landlords, while external referencing provides detailed credit, employment, and identity checks from trusted third-party sources.
This comprehensive process is especially crucial in Central London, where the high demand for short lets brings greater risks of illegal activities such as sex trafficking, drug use, and unauthorized subletting. GLP’s stringent referencing ensures that landlords are protected from unreliable tenants and potential legal issues, offering an extra layer of security compared to other letting agents.
