Tenant Quality in RGV

Account Closed
Posted

I have been looking into RGV area recently. After talking to an agent, it sounds like quality tenants are hard to come by in the area. Or they don't look at credit scores AS MUCH when evaluating an applicant. Is this true? I would love to hear from someone who has properties in RGV.

We run credit and criminal history on everyone. Also had to have solid work history,  good landlord references, and earn three times rent. We have to look at a lot more applicants than most, but good tenants are out there. If you take the first people who apply you will regret it.
