Nesbitt Realty: Sorting Most Compatible Renters In Alexandria, Virginia From Bad Applicants

The first step for Nesbitt Realty to identify the best renter is to market your rental place to prospective renters moving to Northern Virginia. But the second step is to identify the most suitable renter. Vetting possible lessees is one of the most important aspects of every rental manager in Alexandria. Nesbitt Realty check outs the possible lessee’s past behavior. With that in mind, Nesbitt Realty and Management assumes the prospective lessee’s future behavior will be the same. The applicant should demonstrate a history of being a reliable, solid renter and also demonstrated financial capacity. Our background checking process is founded on several fundamentals including:

• Landlord Reference – Our small real estate business utilizes public information, tax records and other research and verification to ensure that we're talking to actual landlord about actual rental history of the applicant.
• Application – After the applicant visits an investment residence, the agent takes an application. The application is accompanied by supporting documentation so that Nesbitt Realty and Management can verify and investigate all information included on the application. The potential renter pays for the cost of the background check at the time of application.
• Criminal Record & Evictions – Nesbitt Realty & Management knows it's critical to know the criminal and public court records of the possible lessee on every rental in Alexandria, Virginia. Property Owners should be aware that most other management companies do not examine court records.

If accepted, the possible lessee’s in-processing includes a lease, lease signing, collecting pro-rated rent, and providing the lessee with a copy of any association documents needed for disclosure and instruction on rules and regulations associated with the investment residence and community.

If you’ve never used a property manager before, you’ll probably want to learn as much as possible about the process and what exactly property managers do. In the broadest sense, here’s what all property managers do (or promise to do):

1. Collect the rents. Put the rents into an escrow account. Disburse funds to pay bills, income to the landlord and fees to the property management company.
2. Keep a record of all money and receipts and furnish that record on a regular basis to the landlord.
3. Deal with HOA/COA.
4. Manage tenant relations including maintenance requests, late fee notices. Deal with a laundry list of tenant problems: unauthorized guests, unauthorized pets, parking issues, tenant cleanliness, noise violations, neighbor complaints, etc. If necessary, we manage the process of prosecuting actions to evict tenants.
5. Ensure compliance with state laws, local ordinances, licensing requirements, association rules, Fair Housing laws, insurance requirements, and IRS requirements.
6. Manage and dispatch handymen as needed.
7. Inspect the property at the time of move-in, at the time of move-out, and from time-to-time during tenancy.

Money in general does not flow from the landlord to the property manager. Money flows from the tenant to the property manager to the landlord. Fees and commissions are withheld from collected rents. Our standard agreement is a one year term, but either party can terminate the arrangement with 30 days notice. The next step is to learn a little more about what differentiates us from other property managers. [Learn more about our property management services now.]
