Many applicants just want to tell us their excuses over the phone, but if they won’t take the time to put it in writing, we find they rarely end up being good tenants.UnderwritingTraditionally, landlords have only looked at the income of applicants and approved those having income equal to three times the property rent.

I've reached out to the office about 2 hours ago, but no one answered the phone.

We don't trust the landlord info they give us, we look up public records to see who actual owner is and then use whitepages.com to get their phone number.

@Jen Menchaca I can hop on a phone call for any questions.

I wrote a letter to the tenants with the account and phone number to the warranty company telling them to contact those companies for any heating or AC issues.  

Whenever something went wrong I just picked up the phone and lined up someone to fix it.

Anyone wanting to speak to me personally I’m an open book feel free to reach out to me personally at 1-503-740-6029 thats my personal cell phone. 

The scammer either:Claims they work for us and our systems are down forcing them to use their cell phone or claims they are the property owner and have terminated us because we couldn't find a tenant for them.They ask for either half a month or a full month of rent upfront, via Venmo, to schedule a MoveIn, but don't really ask for any documentation.These prospects aren't even in our software systems yet and all the correspondence is via text.

What are you going to do when they take your money and then stop answering the phone? 

Columbus has a lot of job opportunities and population growth, especially with Intel coming to Columbus as well as Hyperion, which is a company that makes hydrogen fuel cells.
