How do you screen for Tenants?
Hey BP community,
As we know, Tenants can make or break a rental property. Right now, I'm trying to improve how I look for tenants and my screening process. I highlighted where I look for tenants and my screening qualifications below. How do you advertise your rental and screen for tenants? What are your tips and tricks?
Advertisement: I use Kijiji (I always make sure to boost my ad for a week) and Facebook Marketplace
Rental Qualifications:
-650 credit score
-3x Income
-Stable Job (recession proof jobs are a bonus)
-Previous references
-No Pets
Quick Brandon Turner screening tip: look at the condition of the prospect's car (e.g., is it clean inside?)
Thanks for reading and I look forward to your input,
Antonio
