Piggybacking on Mackaylee's post. I believe setting the precedent upfront solves what could be serious issues before they even apply by giving them a rundown on some of the big key aspects of what the process looks like a head of time.

Big indicators are verification of identity and verifying the references for documents when needed. While complying with all real estate and fair housing laws by state and more this allows for a more in depth and accurate decision making result. 

But the majority of the time, doing the active diligence can ultimately provide the best experience for any placed tenant which in turn will ultimately help yourself, if a property manager, maintain a healthy relationship with your portfolio of owners going forward for them. 

Real estate is a people business no matter where you are at the end of the day. It's tough when there is only one property of any type and multiple applicants so remember if it's not out of your scope to get them set in a right direction as well if there are multiple qualified applicants.

Best to you Jake, stay safe! :)
 

Hello Mark, 

Jumping into real estate can seem scary right at the forefront; however, it can also be one of the most rewarding experiences not only financially but also emotionally and mentally. There are deals that can stress someone and situations that may arise on practically every situation you can think of but taking to the time to develop a business for yourself and scale that business truly makes it all worthwhile and more! If you ever have any comments questions or concerns about what to do or where to go please don't hesitate to ask! 80%+ of this business is networking connections and communication as we are a tight group that needs to stick together. Best of luck and let me know if you'd ever want to grab a bite or a small drink sometime in the future I'd be more than happy to connect :)
