My recommendation would be to get approved as a Landlord, contact the director's office and request that an inspection be completed before a tenant is selected (sometimes they will do this as long as you select a tenant within 14 days - which you want anyways), and have an online application and screening resource in place.  

Get them out and start with leases and only rent to people that you have screened. 

So, the first question they usually ask a PMC is about fees - instead of asking about services and HOW those services are executed.EXAMPLE: PMC states they will handle tenant screening – what does that specifically mean?

I would spend hours on the phone assisting them with their deals, I’d write all their questions down and then sit with Dave and the other PPR partners, after work getting their answers.

The other option for value add is to do it yourself by approaching potential sellers directly via the phone, snail mail, or knocking on doors on main street USA.

What are your best tips for screening tenants, especially for student renters?

If you DM me your email and phone number, I will pass it on to my contact and introduce you..
