@Simon W.  no the rent is deposited to landlord's account by tenant. 

I got you and having that in mind, the Property management is going to sign a contract with a broker.

Thank you

You might want to check out the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM) and their educational offerings. Many of their courses are offered online and are a great start for someone new to the industry.

Best of luck in your new business!

 Thank you so much

Neda

 Sorry to bring back an old thread, but you need to be a broker to be able to collect rent on behalf of the owner. 

Unless you are an employee (w-2) of the property owner then you can collect rent and manage it.

 I am a Real Estate agent and as far as I know I am allowed to do property management but those who are on site managers don't need this license.

Thank you

Why are they moving to the US? How long do they plan on staying here? Get a copy of their VISAs too. 

I would also call my tenant screening company and get some advice from them. They have seen all the pitfalls there could be. 

 Thank you so much, I believe this is the best way to be sure.

I have a family filling the application to rent one of my listings in Houston, TX.

They have green card and are supposed to receive social security number in few days, moving to the US last week.

How could I make sure about their background and their work history? Since they have no credit score and no history here.

I want to make sure that I have a good tenant for the landlord.

They've said that they have 3 companies in Europe and have no problem with more deposits.

I just got my Real Estate license and I want to do property management for an investor who is a friend of mine in Texas.

Right now he has a few properties but he and other investors are planning to buy a lot more.

Do you think I need a certificate? Or should I attend any course for that?
