The first step for us to identify a solid lessee is to advertise the listing to the most people possible. But the second step is to find the best-possible lessee. Verifying the claims of applicants is one of the most important aspects of the successful rental residence management of a rental property in Alexandria.
Nesbitt Realty checks out the possible tenant’s past behavior. With that in mind, Nesbitt Realty assumes the applicant’s future behavior will be similar. The applicant should demonstrate a history of being a top, solid tenant and also having the income and debt-ratio to manage rent. Our background checking process is founded on several fundamentals including:
- Tenant Screening – Nesbitt Realty & Management screens tenants with a combination of checking credit history, background, eviction and criminal screening services as well as our own efforts to collect information needed to confirm and process the application.
- Criminal Record & Evictions – Nesbitt Realty knows it's vital to know the criminal and public court records of the potential lessee on every rental property in Alexandria. Real Estate Owners should be aware that the majority of other property managers do not check out court records.
- Credit History – The applicant's credit history informs us about the applicant’s current and past performance in meeting their financial obligations. The prospective 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.
If accepted, the prospective 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 rental and community.
