The first step for our family-run real estate brokerage to discover the best-possible tenant is to market your rental to the public. But the second step is to identify the the best renter. Verifying the claims of applicants is one of the most critical chores of every rental property manager in 22314.
Nesbitt Realty look at the potential tenant’s past behavior. With that in mind, Nesbitt Realty assumes the possible lessee’s future behavior will be similar. The potential lessee should demonstrate a history of being a trustworthy, reliable tenant while at the same time demonstrated financial capacity. Our background checking process is founded on several conventions including:
- Landlord Reference – Nesbitt Realty & Management 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 prospective lessee.
- Credit History – The applicant's credit history informs us about the prospective renter’s current and past performance in scored record of the applicant's ability to repay debts and demonstrated responsibility in repaying debts. The potential renter’s credit report also tells us their monthly debt and shows their previous addresses (which we compare to addresses listed on the application). An applicant must have acceptable credit to qualify.
- Income Verification – Our small real estate company establishes prospects for continued employment, job title, salary and job status. Depending upon the potential renter's debt load, a tenant needs to earn a minimum of 3 to 4 times the monthly rent in gross income to qualify for rental.
If accepted, the possible lessee’s in-processing includes a lease, lease signing, collecting pro-rated rent, and providing the renter with a copy of any association documents needed for disclosure and instruction on rules and regulations associated with the investment home and community.
