What does your tenant screening process look like?
For those managing rentals themselves, what does your tenant screening process look like from application to approval?
I’m curious how people handle income verification, credit, rental history, references, and background checks, especially when one part of the application looks strong but another raises a question.
Do you have a specific set of requirements you use for every property, or do you adjust them depending on the market and type of rental?
Interested in hearing what has actually worked for people managing their own properties.
