Tenant Screening in NJ
Hi All,
New landlord in Norther New Jersey, have a question about tennant screening for any folks doing buisiness locally.
From my past experience in New York I was under the impression that asking for the following things is standard practice:
--3 month most recent bank statements
--3 months most recent pay stubs
--Last year's W2
--Last year's Income Tax Return
Im am currently hearing that due to privacy concerns these items are not requrested in my area and they would chase away potental tenants becuase no one else is asking for this information. That currently only a report from (National Tenant Network www.ntnonline.com) which obfuscates most of their personal inforamtion is the norm and is enough to make a decision on a potential tenant.
Please advise.
Regards,
Felix
